Sorry, had to chuckle at that.Originally Posted by Biciclista
I witnessed two cyclists backing their motor vehicles into each other last year in a popular trail head park in Seattle. A few bikes got smushed...
I like my bikes inside the vehicle. There have been plenty of times I've gone to/from a ride in the rain. Also, plenty of times I'm going to another ride in a day or two and just leave the bike in the car, or need to load it up a day or two early. It's safe, snug and dry inside.
I have a Toyota 4Runner, way too big for your needs, but I pull a small horse trailer with it too so it serves a lot of purposes. If buying American has any appeal, my husband has a Chevy HHR which is a hatchback and we get two bikes in there easily with the front wheels removed and the back seat down. The seat has to come off my husband's bike because it's tall. Good gas mileage, zippy little car.

I have a Toyota Rav4 and can put my bike in without taking a wheel off. Fits great. It is easy to get my bike in and out. Picked the Rav for that reason when I needed a new vehicle. Recently I was hit from behind in a 4 car accident, and have to say that it got crushed, but I was fine. Luckily I wasn't transporting one of my bikes.
