The Hollywood Racks Destination 4 # HR4000 is a great choice when it comes to easy and safe to use. I love platform racks for how easy they make loading and unloading your bikes-especially if you've got some bikes that are a bit heavier than normal. To confirm that it will fit on your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon you'll just want to make sure that you have at least 6" of clearance from the center of the hitch pin hole on your hitch receiver to the edge of your bumper; this is the amount of space required to fold the rack up when it's not in use.

The Destination 4 comes with a hitch lock to keep the rack safe, but you may want to consider adding a cable lock like the Fulton Cable Lock # FCLK150100 to keep the bikes secure when they're attached to the rack.
