Based solely on this, you do NOT want a trunk rack then. My now ex wife and I had a Saris Bones 3 for our 2 bikes. What a pain in the asteroid that was. The rack mounts marred the paint where the rack mounted to the back of the SUV. The feet marred the paint where the rested on the bumper. The finish on my stem was ruined from using a top tube bar adapter since it was a full suspension 19" Specialized Stumperjumper FSR.
After that experience, I had a hitch installed on my Audi A4. Ugly? Yep, but after getting the hitch installed, and getting a decent rack, it was well worth it.
