Not knowing what type of vehicle you have and looking for a rack, there is something that you do need to consider, I believe. If you have a long(wish) RV, and there is quite some distance from the rear wheels to the hitch mount, you really need to consider how much movement / flexing occurs at the hitch with the amount of bikes (weight) you have attached. The setup carrinb has for his van and six bikes is pretty slick, but may be a bit much for your unit. The other thing to consider is that if you use a bike rack, on an RV, most will not warranty the unit. There are a few exceptions, but they are mostly 1 to 3 bike carriers. Swagman is RV approved, but I think the largest they make is a 4 bike unit. Just things to consider.
