Update,
pondering the many bike carriers available was getting frustrating. Looking for the "easier softer way" to tow our new Toad, along with the Yamaha Vino 125 motor scooter 124cc on the VersaHaul hitch hauler plugged into the motorhome receiver, and the Sterling tow bar plugged into the VersaHaul. With a little additional disassembly of the new all aluminum old style "old people bikes", single speed with pedal brakes. ( I was already removing the seats via the quick disconnect clamp fastener when I hauled the bikes on the Reese bike carrier I bought first, thinking all we wanted were the bikes along with the motorhome, then came the scooter to ride two passengers, then came the rainy days in the Florida Keys and we needed a toad. ) Long story short, I remove seats, front wheels and the handlebars and they fit nicely in the trunk of the 2005 Sunfire Toad. The back seat folds down to expand the trunk in the two door Sunfire and I put a thick blanket between the two bikes. Removing the bikes and assembling the three items, front wheel, handlebar and seats takes about 5 min. each. I found the easier softer way.
Now we are ready to travel, last day of work was March 31st just getting used to not working.
