5 Bike Rack Recommendation for 2001 Toyota 4Runner
Question:
Hi! family of 5. Three adult bikes, two kid bikes. we currently have the older 4 bike yakima full swing. on a great day, i can get 4 bikes on it. most days are not great days, and i can only get 3 on it. 1. are there any hitch racks that actually fit 5 bikes in real world usage? 2. if not, any suggestions? should add a roof rack? current vehicle is a 2001 4Runner with roof rails. All adult bikes all have disk brakes. id prefer not to remove a wheel if possible. Im 53. Thanks!

My favorite 5-bike rack to recommend is the # TH9026XT. It's very easy to use and carries the bikes very well.
I attached a video that shows 5 bikes getting loaded on this rack.
