Cheap on Craigslist. It has 4 bike positions came with the hitch lock too. Our family will get some fun use out of this. Unfortunately the air conditioning just stopped working in the CR-noVtek. Makes a little cool air at idle but it just blows hot at higher speeds. I’ll have to dig in but it might be my 1st repair that I have to have done in a shop in a super log time that wasn’t the Promaster or recall related:( Oh and Bosch nail gun.

I should probably get one too

I guess I’d need to go to a dealer to get equipment installed

How’s the wobble? I’ve been looking at hitch-mounted racks, but I’m worried about clunking noises due to wobble.

The main source of wobble is from this quick style pin that allows it to fold down easily. It comes with an extra bolt to make that more permant and would greatly reduce the rattle while greatly increasing the pain in the ass to get to the hatch. honestly I think some regular car trunks would clear the rack without bending the rack down. If the rattles bothered you that much you could always just carry a wrench use the manual screw each time you needed to fold it down or go get some kind of quick release similar to a bike that allows you to tighten it down quickly without tools. That said empty it makes very little noise at all but sure loaded it will make more.
