Trunk Mount Bike Carrier for a 2008 Ford Taurus Sedan
Question:
Will this work for a 2008 Ford Taurus 4 door?

Expert Reply:
The Thule platform style OutWay trunk mount bike carrier # TH65JV is a confirmed fit for your 2008 Ford Taurus Sedan. I have linked a video review of this carrier for you.
If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have to use these adapters and without them my wife's bike would be at a severe angle and I would not be able to load my son's bike at all. I have linked a video showing how the adapter works.
