Towing with the MDX

How many are towing with their MDX.
We tow a 16 Boston Whaler (about 2,100 lbs).
Besides the small amount rear end squat, the MDX hauls our boat very nicely.
We have been a two long hauls with the boat and the MDX did great!
It also does a great job every day hauling around the kids!
We love our MDX!

Post photos of your MDX towing if you have them!

haven't started towing yet but I will be soon. Nothing as big as yours, just a 12 jon boat. Have you looked into a transmission cooler?

I had the Acura dealer install the Transmission and Power Steering Coolers (about $600 I think).
I did the hitch myself, got the Curt brand from etrailer.com

Not too bad of an install, but if I ever have to do it again I would not do it by myself, someone to hold it in place when I started the bolts would have been a huge help!

When our kids get older I would like to get a bike rack that uses the receiver.
