Thanks for the information Ben. To flat tow your 2017 GMC Acadia Limited, I recommend the Curt Custom Base Plate Kit item # C54WR.
The Curt item # C54WR baseplate is specifically designed for the Limited models. It is custom fit and comes with all hardware needed to complete the installation. This baseplate comes with removable tabs, which really help retain your Acadia's factory look when it's not being towed.
If you go to the product page of the Curt item # C54WR baseplate and scroll down below the pics on the left side you'll see a box that says, SCHEDULE AN INSTALLATION. Go ahead and click on it and it will take you to a page where you'll be able to enter your zip code. Once you do this you'll be connected to our network of reputable installers in your area.
Here are the rest of the parts I recommend using to flat tow your 2017 GMC Acadia Limited:
Tow Bar and Safety Cables -Curt Rambler item # C25DQ
Wiring Harness - 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit item # RM-15267
Fuse Bypass - Fuse Bypass Switch item # C73HR
Supplemental Braking System - SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251 or the Air Force One item # SM99243 if your motorhome has air brakes
