Question:
Hello, trying to get some confirmation on Blue Ox part number BLU93FR for a 2017 GMC Canyon Denali with adaptive cruise control, it is listed as not compatible however I see in the questions section that this one will work. Thank you in advance.

Expert Reply:
I checked with Blue Ox and I can confirm that the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit item # BLU93FR does fit your 2017 GMC Canyon Denali. You will want to follow the instructions in your Canyon's owners manual to address any procedures the adaptive cruise control may cause.
Some other parts you will need to flat tow your 2017 GMC Canyon are listed below:
Tow Bar and Safety Chains - Blue Ox Alpha 2 Non-Binding Tow Bar - 2" Hitch item # BX7380
Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Battery Disconnect Switch - Roadmaster Automatic Battery Disconnect item # RM-766
Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes
High Low Adapter - The tow bar needs to be within 3" of level. If you measure the height of the inside top of the hitch receiver tube on your RV, and the height difference is more than 3 inches above/below the base plate tab height, you'll need a high/low adapter. I have linked a FAQ article that explains all this in more detail along with our selection of adapters.
