The trunk mounted bike rack I would recommend for you 2003 Lincoln Tow Car is the Thule OutWay part # TH45JV.

What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses 2 rubber coated to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 nylon straps like other racks. This makes installation quick and easy.. It also includes locks to secure both the rack and the bikes to deter theft.

If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
