Well, my Subaru is gone now. Now I drive the truck which I bought a couple years ago and never drove it much. I only put 5,000 miles on it during the last 2 years(probably world record on the low miles). My Subaru engine just went bad and I decided to screw it and donate it to the Cars for Veterans instead of putting a third engine in it. And just drive the truck. If I can put another 30,000 miles on the truck then I'll be happy. Anyway, I bought a really nice hitch rack for the truck and I am very impressed with it. It's a rack from 1up USA company which is in Wisconsin, all made in USA. For some reason, US made items are usually the best and very well made. It was very easy to mount it into the hitch which only took 2 seconds with a special theft-free kind of allen wrench. Plus I put in fat bike adapters on the rack so it would work for my fat bike. It was easy to install.
It works for my mountain bike...
road bike...
and fat bike...
This is pretty cool, I could tilt it down with the bike on the rack and put down the tail gate and get in the back of the truck.
....and there is a key lock to lock my bike which is what I really need!
And just to drive around and not having a bike with me, I could fold it up when it is not in use. This is a pretty cool bike rack and if I want to transport more bikes, I could buy bike add on racks. They go up to 4 bikes. It is a pretty pricey rack but well worth it! Here is the link to the website for this rack: http://www.1upusa.com/
