Question:
We need a trailer hitch for our 2012 Chevy Sonic to mount our 2 Super Duty Single 1-Up USA bike rack max bike weight 70 pounds. Is there a way to do this? All I have come up with is a 1-14, Class 1 hitch, and thus no 2 accessory. Thanks!

Hey Jennifer, it does actually look like we have something you can use. For your 2012 Chevy Sonic you can use the hitch # C11258 with the Thule Epos Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # TH99XE.
This bike rack has a 140 lb capacity, will work with a class I hitch, and can be used with the aluminum ramp # TH43VA to make loading your bikes easier.
