Good Day All,
I've been on and off of this forum for years, but just finally joined! I have a 2013 Limited with a tow package. Quick question, I'm looking to get a hitch bike rack and am looking at the Thule T2 (classic or pro) or the Yakima Holdup. My biggest question is if anybody has it with the stock tow package and how the bikes fit when it's tilted down, ie can you actually open the hatch with a mountain bike on either one?! I've seen the videos on etrailer.com and they only use a road bike and it's in an aftermarket hitch. Both are great racks and I'll get either, just want the one with the most clearance! I've got roof racks currently that I'll still use when trailering, but excited to get the bikes off the roof!
Thanks!
Bobby
