I was wondering if other people have their CX-5's set up with a trailer hitch Bike Mount and Kayaks on the roof racks? I could really use some advice?
I have a 2016 CX5 GT, with roof rails.
I asked my dealership for a quote on the Trailer Hitch without a harness, as I am only using this for Mountain bikes. They gave me a quote of close to $900, which I think is extremely expensive just for a trailer hitch installed. Does anyone have a recommendation of what type of Bike Rack to use with a hitch, and what kind of price range?
I also asked for more information on the Kayak Carrier. My dealership wasn't very helpful with any information. Anything I have learned has been on the internets. Do I need roof rails? Can I carry 2 Kayaks etc? I don't want to buy roof rails, If the Kayak Carrier comes with it's own roof rails. If anyone has their CX5 setup for Kayaks, any recommendations would be helpful.
I am glad I found this site, My Mazda Dealership has not been very helpful since I actually bought the SUV.
