        Comments about Yakima KingJoe Pro 2 Trunk Bike Carrier:

        The King Joe Pro 2 works great on my 2011 Subaru Outback. After using it a few times, I can get it on in under 2 minutes and get it off in about 30 seconds.
        The rubber straps that secure your bike are very stiff ... hard to strap in at times. While a nuisance (especially when the weather is cold), they feel exceptionally durable and secure.
        The biggest con is I don't feel safe leaving my bikes on the rack unattended for any length of time. Unlike trailer hitch racks, it can't really lock onto your car, so someone could realistically remove your bike along with the rack. Even if they can't get the bottom hook off, they could simply cut the straps. This is just the inherent flaw of strapped on racks in my opinion...
        Overall it works great and is simple to operate. I even took 2 bikes from Houston to Fredericksburg without any problems (200+ miles). I would highly recommend the King Joe Pro 2 to anyone seeking a strapped on rack.

          I have a Toyota Corolla S model (with a small spoiler) and this bike rack fits perfectly. Everything is clearly labeled so installing it is very straightforward and it is easy to securely position 2 bikes on it. There are even bottle openers on the end, BONUS!

            Searched for a rack that could fit a variety of vehicles. Other than some newer SUV's with the mini-spoilers, this seems to work well. Easy to size and install. Seems very stable.
