I had the same problem with my car - it is a Mitsubishi 3000. I didn't want a cumbersome roof rack, a hitch could easily be taken off. And aparently though there are millions in the world - the U haul said that it takes a "special" (don't I feel important) hitch receiver and that will cost .. zing, zing, yep, $250 smackaroos (most cost only $100) for a 1 1/4" (cannot take a 2" cos I couldn't tow a house with that). Of course with the 1 1/4" I have to BUY an adaptor to make it a 2" which is what the Yakima Slickrock4 needs. Phew .. so after all that it is almost $500!! Well worth it though cos I am tired of shoving my bike in the back dinging everything insight. My mt. bike is little big and dirty to fit comfortably and when I get to wrestling around too long it is NOT a pretty sight. Yakima had some nice features on it like "non rocking" ties so the bikes stay stable. They are a bit sturdier. It has a tilt hitch so you don't have to (for midgets like me) keep hiking the bikes in the air. Mine holds 4 so I feel REALLY important! Hope this helps .. expensive; but, worth it, oh, and for an extra $20 you can have yourelf a trendy lock so someone does nick your expensive, special rack! Happy hunting! |
