IMHO: Go to a reputable bike shop....Rhode Gear makes a fold out model for two to four bikes that I have used for 6 years; I think I paid less than $100. It straps onto the back hatch at the top and bottom and even allows the hatch to be opened ( with care) while the bikes are mounted. The rubber feet can sit either on the hatch metal and glass or the glass alone. I have been through some really rough territory (not true off-roading) with the rack mounted on the hatch glass with no damage. The rack also serves nicely for carrying lawn chairs, etc. The rear mounting is unobtrusive and with a few stretch cords holds the bikes securely. Stephen Steele 91 Caravelle...Hans
