Question:

Thanks for getting back to me. Is there a hitch 3 bike rack that you would recommend?

I do have a way that you can travel with 2 bikes but unfortunately there are no trunk mount bike racks that fit your 2014 Nissan Rogue SL. Instead you'll either have to use a roof mount bike rack or have a trailer hitch installed and use a hitch mount bike rack.

For a roof mount option I recommend the SeaSucker Mini Bomber Roof 2 Bike Rack # 298-BM2006 because it combines a roof rack with a bike rack. This means that it can easily be transferred to another vehicle down the road if the need arises. The Mini Bomber installs on your Rogue using vacuum cups which are much stronger than suction cups as you can see in the attached video with the VW van.

For a hitch mount I recommend installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98846 because of the heavy duty matte black finish and then using the Thule Camber 2 Bike Rack # TH9058 which is a really solid choice and can accommodate bikes up to 37.5 lbs. We actually had the opportunity to install this on a 2018 Nissan Rogue so I'm adding that video for you to check out as well.

For a 3-bike rack I really like the RockyMounts WestSlope # RKY10223 because it is a platform style with a u-shaped body so that it is much easier to load your bikes. This is a wheel mount style platform rack which makes it compatible with pretty much any bike frame style that doesn't have a front fender. We were able to install this on a '17 Rogue so I've attached that video for you to take a look at. If you were wanting to stick with the hanging style rack then the 4-bike Thule Camber # TH9056 is the way to go. This has everything the same as the 2-bike version except that there are 2 additional cradle spots and the arms are longer to accommodate that. I have attached a review video for this as well.
