Question:
I am trying to buy my 1st bike rack and I am overwhelmed with the choices. We will be hauling 4 adult mountain bikes, 2 womans / 2 mens. The rack will go on a Toyota Highlander. We will just use the bike rack 2-3 times a year 30 miles a way. Maybe once on a 200 mile trip. Is the Yakima LongHaul all I need?

Expert Reply:
The Yakima LongHaul 4 Bike Rack # Y02476 that you referenced would work well on your Toyota Highlander as long as it has a hitch installed with a 2 inch opening.
For the women's bikes, since they do not typically have horizontal top tubes you would want a Swagman Easy-Out Bike Adapter Bar # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube to make carrying the women's bikes easier and safer.
