What do you haul your bikes on?
Long story short-we are looking for a new car! We've narrowed down the results to either a Tahoe or a Cadillac CTS (car). I know, they are COMPLETELY different!!!
So here's the thing, he thinks that putting my bikes (road and Mt) on the back on the CTS is completely ridiculous . I don't care either way on what they go on, as long as they are safe and comfy:cool: . He wanted me to ask you all what you think about a bike on the CTS and what you drive to haul around your bikes?:confused:
Your answers will determine the fake of our car buying experience!!! :D
I have a Tahoe and love it
I have a Tahoe and currently use a board with a front fork holder to transport my bike. (made it)
I see that you have a little one too, carseat?. I just put the smaller side of the split seat down and have the back time go through there and then put the fork mount/board towards the back and tighten the fork in. I can still fit a gike in the back along with two carseats.
I have put three bikes inside attached by frontfork mounts and had three adults in there too. Its nice to have a car you can put the bikes inside.
On long trips w/ lots of gear I usually use a roof rack/tray mount because I have a rocket box up there too. I usually travel with two kids and one dog/kennel. Adding another dog/kennel today...ugh! Its going to be trip fun!
As for the Tahoe, I love it! Its a 2000 (new body style) and I would consider another in a heartbeat. It fits all my gear, kids and animals with little problem. Gas mileage isn't the greatest but the new ones are a little better.
