I'm running into static with the wife on this. She says she doesn't like it and that it will obstruct her view. I may get the front hitch receiver using your reasons mentioned above and then one day just stick a bike rack on it and see what happens
If she's anything like mine, she rarely looks up from her phone anyway Tell her it'll improve her cell service.
Picked this up on offerup. It's a Thule rack probably 10-12 years old. It's pretty heavy so i doubt I can use it on my flex. I'll give it a fresh coat of paint and maybe check online for replacement parts so it's nice and tight again. Supposed to fit 4 but i was having a hard time with 3. Looks like the front hitch rack will definitely be in play.

I have the flip down version of this rack and this is what I was referring earlier about being able to fit 3 bike on a 4 bike rack. It is possible, but quite time consuming.
Got the front hitch and bike rack put on. Also got the front windows tinted. The bike sits up higher than i hoped but we'll see once all loaded up an ready to go. I'll play with the bike arrangements and probably lower the seats to give the best visibility.
