Question:
Thank you Conner for getting back to me! However, I am sorry I did not get back to you right away. With that being said, could you please let me know a set-up for a 2016 Honda CRV EX? Sorry to keep changing cars just trying to get the best options for my situation. Thank you again for all your help!

The best trailer hitch we have for your 2014 Chevrolet Impala LTZ is the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 36538 which is a custom fit and will not require any drilling. The Draw-Tite option is a Class II hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver tube opening. I like the Draw-Tite hitches as they do not require the use of an added support strap like the Curt hitches will. You can see how it installs using the attached video on a similar 2015 Chevrolet Impala.
Please note that you will be limited to carrying 2 bikes with this hitch as that is the maximum number of bikes that can be carried using a Class II hitch. If you are also looking for a bike rack I recommend the Swagman XTC-2 part # S64670. The Swagman XTC-2 works with a variety of different bike types and can be folded while not in use. You can see some of the other features of this rack in the review video I have attached or you.

Thank you for getting back to me. From the information you provided I take it that it is not recommended to have a 4 bike rack for my 2014 Chevy LTZ. However, is there a recommended set up for a 2015 Chevy Equinox?
