Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2014 RAV4 Limited
Question:
I have this rack for my previous car. Can it be used on the 2014 Toyota RAV4 Limited?

I checked with Saris and they do not recommend the Saris Bones 2 Bike Carrier # SA805BL for your 2014 Toyota RAV4. Because of that I would not recommend it for you.
For a similar rack that is confirmed to fit your vehicle I would go with the Thule Gateway Pro Bike Rack part # TH88VR. Check out the review video I attached.
If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
