Will Thule EasyFold XT 2 Bike Rack Work with 2010 Town and Country
Question:
will this rack fit my 2010 town and country? do I need a round electric connector? I have the flat 4 or 5 pin. also can I easily fit a townie go and Magnum metro with down tube batteries. Can I get a longer ramp that is not so steep. I am unable to lift much at all. Thanks

As long as you have a trailer hitch installed on your 2010 Chrysler Town and Country, the Thule EasyFold XT 2 Electric Bike Platform Rack # TH903202 that you referenced will fit and work perfectly. There is no need for any type of electrical connector on your vehicle. This rack does feature dual oversize red reflectors for nighttime visibility but they are not powered.
This is an excellent hitch-mounted rack that has padded clamps to hold your bikes firmly and detachable arms that can work around the mounted batteries on your particular bikes. As you mentioned, it also features a lightweight aluminum ramp to help you load up the bikes and the ramp can easily fold up for storage when not in use. This is a telescoping ramp that can extend up to 48 inches long to help flatten out the incline, but there is not a longer ramp available. The rack does have an additional back saving benefit as well with its integrated handle and wheels that let you maneuver the rack around when folded.
Looking at the online specs for your Townie Go and Magnum Metro electric bikes, this looks to be the perfect rack to provide their secure and easy transportation. A bike and hitch lock are also included to help keep your investments safe.
If you don't yet have a trailer hitch installed on your vehicle, I recommend the Draw-Tite Class III # 75579. This hitch is confirmed to fit your 2010 Town and Country and will use existing holes in its frame for a no-drill installation. It will provide you with a 2 inch receiver opening that will work perfectly for the Thule EasyFold XT or any other accessory you may want to attach down the line.
I have attached an installation video that you can use for reference.
