What Trunk Rack Do You Recommend for a 2020 Jeep Compass?

Question:

Dear Etrailer especialists, For my 2020 Jeep Compass, I am very undecided to choose between the following trunk bicycle racks: 1- Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack 2- Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack - 3- SUPERBONES™ 3-BIKE Please advice me to make a good and educated decision.

For a three-bike carrier on your 2020 Jeep Compass, I recommend the Saris Bones EX 3 # SA803. The reason why it is better than the Yakima Fullback # Y02633 is because the Fullback has a per-bike weight limit of 30 pounds when transporting three bikes in comparison to the Saris Bones EX 3's 35 pound capacity.

Another great advantage of the Bones EX 3 over the Fullback is Bones EX 3's 6 trunk attachment points over the Fullback's 4 attachment points. More attachment points ultimately means more security on the trunk.

Unfortunately, the Superbones is discontinued from production.
