Seriously, a Chrysler minivan has proved just great for my and my wife's bike, not needing to take off the front tire, and first leaning to the side as I load one at a time and then standing the bike up vertically pointing forward. I have gotten 4 bikes in this way.

This also allows for all the other stuff we bring along on a car trip, and keeps the bikes relatively safe and "locked in."
We have a winner here. My Dodge Caravan hauls three adults and their full-sized bikes, without removing any wheels, and all their luggage, with room to spare.
It's an incredibly useful vehicle. I've owned all manner of vehicles, from coupes and sedans to pickups, wagons and SUVs. If I could have only one, this would have to be it.
