It is a problem to get my mountain bike on it properly, being short doesn't help.

I will keep the Honda Fit in mind should something happen to my Lancer. I love that car, but you never know what might happen.
Look at the Saris Thelma 2 Bike - the Saris website says it will work with either a 1 1/4" hitch or a 2" hitch.

From Thule's website, it also looks like they have some tray hitch options that fit 1 1/4" hitches. So - if you want it - I think you can make it happen.
