Question:
I have a 2016 and 2018 Toyota Highlander and want a trunk mount bike rack for two bikes. Im looking at the Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier - Trunk Mount - TH910XT or the Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack or? Our bikes are a crossover Novana from REI and a Giant nrs XTC. Would either of these bike racks work and your opinion on them. Also will I need a tube top adaptor since both crossbars slant? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
Both of the bikes you mentioned have fairly standard frames so either trunk rack would fit them easily.
The Yakima Hangout # Y02637 and the Thule Passage part # TH910XT are basically each manufacturers version of the same bike rack. Since the reviews are noticeable higher for the Passage I'd go with it. It fits both of your Highlanders as well.
