Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Toyota Venza

Question:

What do you recommend for a Venza. I normally carry one street bike, every now and then will carry my wife's bike. Will only use 6 or 7 times a year on long road trips.

For your 2015 Toyota Venza, the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Rack # TH45JV that you referenced is a great choice. This rack features Thule's Hold Fast anti-sway cradles with no-sway cages to prevent bike-to-bike and bike-to-vehicle contact. The cradles also feature pads to help dampen road shock on the bike and minimize vibration. Additionally, the OutWay features an integrated cable lock to secure your bikes to the rack and locking covers to keep the bike secured to the trunk. Your bikes will be very well secured in the OutWay # TH45JV rack.

I have attached a review video of this rack for you.

If your wife's bike has an alternative or women's frame, you may need a bike adapter bar to be able to carry the bike level. The adapter bar we like to recommend is the Swagman Easy-Out # 64005. I have also attached a review video of this adapter.
