Question:
I understand that the Thule EasyFold XT 2 Bike Rack cannot be used with a travel trailer. However, if I add a 2 inch receiver to my front 2500 GMC Sierra Denali, can I carry the Thule EasyFold XT 2 Bike Rack on the front of my truck.

Expert Reply:
You can definitely carry the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 with a front mount hitch on your GMC Sierra 2500 Denali!
It looks like you input a 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 in as your vehicle. If this is the year that you have then we have 2 different front mount hitch options for you, the Draw-Tite # 65078 which sticks through your front fascia (cleaner look but cutting of fascia where the license plate sits) and the Curt # C31071 which hangs below your fascia (no fascia cutting but might reduce ground clearance).
Since you're wanting to utilize with the EasyFold XT you'll need to use the Draw-Tite since it can definitely provide you with enough clearance. The Curt option is recessed a bit and even though we haven't tested it on a 2019 Sierra 2500, from our videos on previous GM fits it's recessed too much. Since the Draw-Tite sits where your front license plate should be you also need a relocation bracket like part # 5443 for when you aren't using the bike rack.
