The Yakima Swing Daddy hitch mounted bike rack for 4 bikes looks great installed in the 2″ receiver hitch on this 2004 Ford Escape.  As seen in the picture of this 2004 Ford Escape hitch bike rack, when you want easy access of the rear of the vehicle without needing to first remove all the bikes from the rack, a “swing away” rack is what you need.   The Yakima SwingDaddy bike rack, which works only with 2″ receivers, can carry up to four bikes safely and securely.  It comes with the Yakima Lock Down Security system which locks the rack to the receiver and locks the bikes to the rack.

Carrying Canoe on 2005 Toyota Tacoma Pickup Truck

by Rack Princess on June 14, 2010

2005 Toyota Quad Cab Pickup Truck with Yakima Q Tower Roof Rack System used to transport canoe.

2005 Toyota Quad Cab pickup truck rack for carrying a canoe. Using the Yakima Q Tower Roof Rack System on the cab roof and hitch t-mast on the rear trailer hitch for transporting the canoe.

Harnessing the power of a 2005 Toyota Tacoma pickup truck canoe rack to transport a full length canoe is executed efficiently with the Yakima Q Tower complete roof rack system using Yakima Q127 clips and Yakima Q128 clips (Q clips specific to this vehicle) and a Hitch Rack T-Mast to hold up the end of the canoe.  We couldn’t zoom in enough to see what this 2005 Toyota Tacoma Pickup Truck was using for a T-Mast hitch rack but if you ask me I’d tell you that the Yakima DryDock Hitch Canoe and Kayak Rack is the way to go. Don’t forget a 4 pack of Yakima locks and keys to lock the Q towers to the 2005 Toyota Tacoma 4 door cab top.

more information on how you might haul a canoe on a 2005 Toyota Tacoma truck canoe rack.

2005 Toyota 4Runner hitch bike rack with Saris Thelma Hitch Bike Rack (Juvenile Hitch Rack) for 3 bikes (2 adult bikes and 1 kids bike).

Lots of great adult bike hitch rack solutions are out there for a 2005 Toyota 4-Runner hitch bike rack, but most of us usually end up cramming the kid’s bikes in the back with the picnic lunch.  I can’t stand it when the tuna salad pitas get squished. The Saris Thelma Hitch Bike Rack for 3 bikes is a great solution for carrying both adult bikes and a kid’s bike on the back of a 2005 Toyota 4Runner with either a 2″ or 1-1/4″ trailer hitch. The  Saris Thelma Juvenile bike hitch rack has 2 bike trays for adult bicycles and a “juvenile” bike tray for carrying any kind of kids bike with 20 inch wheels, including BMX bikes.  The Saris Locking Hitch-Tite (Saris 3022) Hitch Bike Rack lock is a smart addition to lock the rack to the 2005 Toyota 4Runner also  secure all three bicycles to the hitch bike rack with the Saris cable bike lock.  Bonus: This looks really cute too!
