It sounds like you are interested in a hanging style bike rack. If that is the case, the best option for this with the features you are looking for is the Thule Hitching Post Pro part # TH934XTR. The Hitching Post has anti-sway cradles built-in so don't have to worry about the bikes coming into contact with one another or the vehicle. It also has an anti-rattle hitch pin so there will be little movement in the bike rack itself.

The Hitching Post has a tilting feature so you can get into the rear hatch with the bike rack installed and folding arms for storage. The best part of all is the Hitching Post is made in the USA and comes with a lifetime warranty. There will be no issues with a 2012 Ford Edge.

Hey would you recommend something a little cheaper. Iam just getting in to the bike scene. I also need to purchase a hitch,so I really don’t want to break the bank. Thanks

Certainly, the Rola TX-104 4-Bike Rack for 2" Hitches part # 59401 is a close second and also has anti-sway cradles to help prevent the bikes from coming into contact with one another and the vehicle. It also like the Thule Hitching Post Pro has both a tilting and folding feature. The Rola TX-104 actually has an integrated bike cable lock whereas the Thule Hitching Post Pro does not so it's actually better in that regard. Thule has a much bigger name hence the increased price. The trailer hitch I recommend is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98870 which offers easy bolt-on installation.
