Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommended for a 2014 Dodge Charger with a Spoiler
Question:
I have a 2014 Dodge Charger with a trunk spoiler. Which bike rack would be my option? It would have to hold 3 bikes. I’m not sure about roof rack affordability but I’m leaning towards trunk mounted. Please advise. Thanks!

For your 2014 Dodge Charger with the spoiler I recommend the Thule Gateway Pro # TH78VR.
I like the Gateway Pro because not only will it work with your spoiler but it includes an integrated cable lock to lock your bikes and you can tuck the excess straps out of the way which is nice.
Additionally you can add a security strap to secure the rack to the car using part # TH533 and you might need an adapter bar if any of the bike's are kids or women's bikes. The adapter bar creates the horizontal top tube a men's bike generally has. I like the Swagman adapter bar, part # 64005.
