Toyota Highlander for bikes?

My BF just got a Camry Hybrid and had a hitch installed. I kid you not, he is getting 39-40 mpg. We carry two bikes on the hitch.

Are you able to get anything, even a bike tire, in that tiny, tiny trunk? The Camry hybrid would be great - I know I could get my bike in the back seat, but the trunk really is a concern for me.

As for the Honda Element, sorry folks, it's just not for me. My niece and I call it the Tupperware car; we figure it must make the Tupperware "burp" noise each time a car door closes!

We test drove an Element and I really liked it, but the clamshell design baffled me. I know I would be confused by my own doors! I liked the Xb, too. It is weird but I don't mind having a funky car, I had a bright yellow New Beetle as a lease through college. This was when they were just getting popular and it got a lot of looks at my Agriculture university.

I now have a Dodge Caliber and the Thule Speedway 2 works perfectly on it. We had it for my old Saturn Vue and I was so happy it works on the Caliber.

I HATED the interior bike rack on my Vue. The bikes made noise wobbling around, you have to drop tall seats and road bikes don't sit right in there. We got it free from the dealer, but it wasn't worth the hassle. Neither was the Saturn though! It was in the shop 11 times in 18 months and none of it was routine maintenance. I was happy to find out the dealer I got my Caliber at would pay me only $400 less than what I owed. I took the slight upside down note and ran far away from the Vue. <<End of rant>>

Ahhhh, the "Saturn Pattern"
