Hitch and 3-Bike Rack Recommendation for 2016 Jeep Patriot
Question:
I have a 2016 Jeep Patriot, no hitch. What bike rack would you suggest? 3 bikes. Thank you, thank you.

First let's get a hitch installed on your 2016 Jeep Patriot. For that you'd want the Draw Tite hitch part # 75712 which is a confirmed fit and would be a great choice for a 3 bike rack. It has a concealed crosstube too so only the hitch opening would be visible.
Then for a 3 bike rack the Kuat Transfer 3 part # KU24FR would be a great option. It's a platform rack so it will be very easy to load/unload and will hold the bikes very securely. I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well.
