Recommended Trunk Bike Rack For A 2019 Ford Escape Titanium
Question:
Hello, We are looking for a 2-Bike Trunk Mounted Rack for a 2019 FORD Escape TITANIUM. It appears that there are no Thule products that fit. Saris offers some products to fit the TITANIUM but when you open the more informationinch tab it is a bit contradictory because it lists together excluding Titanium, Titanium. So which is it? If you could recommend or suggest a good choice for the Titanium Escape it would be helpful. You have great videos with examples for many makes and models but nothing for the Escape. There are many Escapes out there and some Titanium versions also. What are others finding works well? Lots of info on your site! Thanks

Hey Myron, we do have some great trunk mounted bike rack options for your 2019 Ford Escape Titanium. I agree that the way things are listed on the website is a bit confusing. Basically, in the case of the 2019 Ford Escape, all of the racks shown will fit both the Titanium and non-Titanium models, so this is why you may see it listed under both vehicle styles. I have included a link below that will show you all of the racks that will fit the Titanium model.
All that said, the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR that you were looking at is a great option for the 2019 Ford Escape Titanium. It is easily adjustable, and the rubber anti-sway straps do a great job keeping the bikes in place and prevent them from moving around too much while you are driving. Also, the rack itself weighs only 11 lbs, so it is very easy to handle. The only downside is that you will not be able to use the rear wiper with the rack installed, but that will be true for any rack.
We do recommend that you use the Hatch Huggers # SA3035 for your anchors.

Hi Jesse, Thanks for your quick reply and the info. What is the difference between the Saris Bones EX2 SAR83FR and the Bones 2 SA805BL?? Features, physical appearance and price appear the same. What does the designation FR or BL mean? Is one or the other better suited to mount to the hatch/spoiler of the Titanium Escape? Thanks! Myorn
