If you have a sub in the trunk like I do you would have to. HAHAHA.

True true. I don't have a sub, but I did have to move the bodies around a little bit to get it all in there.

I bought and installed a small, light weight 1 1/4 inch receiver. It was designed for attaching to my 3-door Yaris...no drilling, just inserting and tightening some bolts. Not designed for towing...but my 1 1/4inch bike rack attaches easily. The receiver can handle the weight of two bikes.
Easier to use than trying to disassemble/reassemble my bikes, once receiver was installed.

As a matter of fact, I am currently selling my folding bicycle;

If you hop on your local craigslist, I'm sure you can find some folding bicycles for sale near you.

For non-folding bicycles, I usually use a bike rack.

I just got my windshield replaced. As I already have a Montague folding mountain bike for the airplane, I brought it along, it was great to be able to take off and do other things while the glass guy did his thing. Two Montagues would fit inside I think, at least in mine, with no rear seat or spare. Carrying it inside of course doesn't create any extra drag.
