hitch rack: tilt vs. swing?
bought a vehicle with a hitch rack & am torn between "tilt" and "swing" racks.
"Tilt" seems advantageous because you can leave it on the car all the time and very quickly tilt it down when you need to open the liftgate. Also a bit cheaper than swing.
"Swing" racks look a bit more laborious if you want to get them out of the way to open the liftgate - unlatch, twist, and then finally you can move it. Also looks ugly. But there is of course the advantage that you can get to the back w/o removing bikes.
I'm guessing that I'll care more about quickly getting it out of the way on a regular basis when I don't have bikes more than being able to swing it out of the way on the occasion that I am taking bikes somewhere.
Other considerations I should be making? (no need to try to convince me that a roof rack is better)
