I have a 3-bike hitch mount (2" receiver) made by Allen. It is the premium model which has a quick release for folding down the whole rack so you can open the back hatch of your SUV. It also can fold down the top part that holds the bikes when not in use.
Allen racks are very good. They use nylon belts to tie down the bikes instead of the plastic notched ones you will see on the cheap ones - if the nylon belt breaks or wears out - you just buy some at JAX or something.
I am also including a locking hitch pin. The rack retails for $180 and the locking pin for $35. I bought these at the end of last summer, but with my new tire carrier bumper it will not work, and I need something different, or just use the one for my Maxima. I used these a couple times and it's all in like-new condition.
I will sell the carrier + locking pin for $120 and can meet you within a reasonable distance (sorry Jarrod :p).
Anyway I know there are some MTBers on here. LMK if interested or if you know someone please pass it along.
