Hitch Recommendation for 2015 Subaru Forester XT Looking to Haul Bikes w/ Thule Apex Bike Rack
Question:
Hello - I have a 2015 Subaru Forester XT dual ex., and would like to purchase a 2inch receiver hitch. I have a Thule 9025 bike rack 2, and wanted to ensure the compatibility between this bike rack and the new hitch. Also, Im not too keen on the stabilizing strap idea if Curt, but Im unsure if the other options Drawtite and Hidden Hitch are compatible with the thule 9025 without a strap. What are your recommendations for my situation. Thank you!

Expert Reply:
When it comes to a hitch for your 2015 Subaru Forester, I recommend the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 75876. This hitch is economically priced and does not require the use of a stabilizing strap.
This is a great hitch to use with your Thule Apex rack.
