Trailer to haul bike?

For $2K, can you put a receiver hitch on your car and get something like the Thule T2 rack for your bikes? We just got this for our Escape and it seems to work fine:

They also have a roof mounted kayak holder that will do the heavy lifting for you:

But, hmmm....If you don't have the hitch, the 2 Thule pieces I recommended already set you back over $700. Add the addition of a hitch and accessories, and you are already well north of $1,000. Makes a trailer look like not such a bad idea after all....if you have a place to store it and are confident you can maneuver it.

Well that's certainly an excellent review, got me thinking about it again. This trailer is made to be light and carry light things, so maybe the shocks are up for it without bouncing.

thanks,
