ruins your departure angle
Although the functionality of this bike rack is superb and it is super easy to use and well-built, it made the departure angle of my 2016 Toyota RAV4 so awful that I can't pull into my driveway with out scraping the sidewalk. Imagine if your bumper was extended out 20 inches, now imagine the new angle from the bottom of your tire to that bike rack. There is no offset up from the hitch. there's no possibility I could even do light off roading with this bike rack on my car. That being said it is super easy to use. If you were only driving around town with two bikes, this is the end-all-be-all. However if you don't need the 90° swing out (which I bought to be able to easily unload camping gear) save yourself several hundred dollars and buy something else
