Hitch Rack Comments?

All,

I'm planning on upgrading to a hitch rack; I'm just too frustrated trying to put my, my wife's and
my daughter's bikes on my trunk rack.

I have a standard diamond frame; my wife has a mixte, and I have a trail-a-bike for my daughter.

What kinds of hitch racks do you use, and what can you say about them -- good or bad? Especially any
of you who might have trail-a-bikes?

Thanks!

I love mine. I have a tandem model modified to carry a 9' long bike, but I also use it to haul
normal bikes. I am sorry I waited so long to buy it.

I don't have a trail-a-bike but I use this rack on my Venture van and love
it. I regularly carry three bikes on it and love the swing down feature for access to the back of
the van without having to remove the bike rack.
