Do You Recommend the Thule Apex Swing XT for a Subaru Outback 2018?
Question:
Hello there, I recently ordered a hitch from you guys which looks awesome on my Outback, now I want to get a bike rack for the same car. I am wondering about this model but, before making such investments, I would like to know if this one is a good option, or if there is a better one to be considered. Thanks, in advance for your valuable advice.

The Thule Apex Swing XT # TH9027XT is a great option for a 2-inch hitch receiver. The nice thing about having the Apex's swing-away feature is that it lets you access your rear cargo area on your 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon without removing bikes from rack. In addition, the Apex comes with a one-Key System hand knob and cable locks deter theft of your bikes and the rack. With the locking system, you can rest assured that your bike and rack are safe. With all this being said, the Apex Swing XT is a great option for you.
