Question:
Hello, I have a 2023 Acura MDX AWD that I will be towing a 3000 lb trailer. What hitch would you recommend? Thanks for your help!

Expert Reply:
To add a hitch to your 2023 Acura MDX, I recommend the etrailer item # e27KR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Acura with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 6,000 lbs towing capacity and a 900 lbs maximum tongue weight.
I have linked an installation video below.
Since you plan on towing a trailer with brakes you will also need a 7-way connector, a brake controller, and a ball mount kit. I have listed all of the parts you will need below along with any installation videos we may have:
4-Way and 7-Way Connectors - Curt Powered Tail Light Converter item # C59236 and Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller item # ETBC7
Wiring Harness Mount - No-Drill Mount Bracket item # 18136
Brake Controller - Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller item # RED24FR and Wiring Adapter item # RED69FR
Ball Mount - Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534
