Will the Thule 5-Bike Rack Fit a 2009 Toyota Sienna
Question:
I see in your FAQs that the Thule Apex 5 bike option will work for my vehicle. Will the Thule Vertex 5 bike option also work for my vehicle? Is there a reason it isnt listed in the minivan compatible section?

Expert Reply:
Bike racks are not really vehicle specific though there are some that work better with certain vehicles than others. We mainly go by what people are using for a given vehicle or vehicle style and present that information.
You can certainly use the Thule Apex 5-bike rack # TH9026XT with your 2009 Toyota Sienna. I have linked a video review of this bike rack for you. The Vertex would work but has been discontinued by the manufacturer.
Please note that the bike rack works with a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver opening. If you need a compatible trailer hitch I recommend Draw-Tite hitch # C13105.
