Will the Thule Helium 2 Bike Platform Rack Work On a Toyota RAV4 2006-2018
Question:
Hi, I am planning to get a 2inch hitch for 2 vehicles: Toyota Rav 4 2008 and 2012. And plan to purchase the Thule Helium 2 Bike Platform Rack. Would there be an issue to transfer the bike rack back and forth to these two vehicles?

Expert Reply:
The Thule Helium 2 Bike Platform Rack part # TH44VR will work just fine on a Toyota RAV4 with a trailer hitch like the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98864 (2006 - 2018 Toyota RAV4) which is what I recommend using. It can be folded up against the vehicle while not in use and it can be tilted back with the bikes attached for access into the rear hatch.
