Question:
I bought a Yakima Super Joe 2 for my car, a 2009 Nissan Versa. I thought it would work out, but the packaging says it does not. Do you have any reccomendations? I am driving from Columbus to Cape Cod next week.

Expert Reply:
You are correct the Yakima SuperJoe and SuperJoe Pro bike racks do not fit a 2009 Nissan Versa 4-door or hatchback. Yakima does list the KingJoe Pro, # Y02624 as a fit.
If you are looking for a more economical rack then the Thule Passage 2, # TH910XT, that you referenced would be the way to go. I have included some links on this bike rack for you.
I have included a link to all of the trunk mount bike racks that will fit your Versa. If you will be carrying womens, childrens, or alternative frame bikes I recommend using an adapter bar # TH982XT, for greater ground clearance and to carry the bikes more level. I have included a link to a video that shows how the adapter works.
