Can a Yakima LongHaul Bike Rack Fit a 2013 Toyota RAV4 and What Hitch to Use
Question:
I am looking into getting this bike rack for my dads vehicle 2013 Rav4 XLE. He lugs around 4 bikes maximum and a bike trailer it folds up, so we just put the trailer in the trunk. We currently do not have a hitch, so any hitch recommendations for this vehicle? Are there any extra pieces I would need to purchase additionally? Im not sure if all of them are traditional frames Trek, Ozark, Jamis trail, etc

Expert Reply:
The Yakima LongHaul 4 Bike RV Rack # Y02476 for 2" Hitches will easily fit and work great with a 2013 Toyota RAV4. You just need to install a 2 inch hitch like you mentioned. For that the best option is the #C13406 from Curt as it's mostly hidden and has plenty of weight capacity.
