Will the Thule Apex 5 Bike Rack Fit on a 2002 Toyota Sienna with a Draw-Tite Hitch
Question:
We have a Thule Apex 5 bike rack that we want to carry on our 2002 Toyota Sienna. Am I correct that the Draw Tite 75120 would be adequate for this application? We were hoping to get a model that does not require drilling. Thanks for any advice you can provide!

Expert Reply:
You are correct, the Draw-Tite Hitch # 75120 will work for your 2002 Toyota Sienna and unfortunately some drilling is required. The upside to installing a trailer hitch on your vehicle is that it is only a one time thing.
Once you have the hitch installed, your Thule Apex 5 bike rack will work well.
Another advantage to installing a trailer hitch on your vehicle is having the ability to tow a trailer if the occasion arose. I have listed a few more items that you will need to complete your towing set up.
