Solid, Inexpensive, low rattle, back of vehicle, bike rack

[MandoMan]

I'm 67 and just getting ready to start riding again. I will be needing an inexpensive rack until I'm sure that I'm going to stick with bike riding. I'd sure like to get some advice from some of you that have gone through the same thing, and know what the best bang for the buck is. Thanks for the help.

We have a Hollywood bike rack, that we bought from an American oilman living here. It has been pretty solid and we've had it for years. I think it is the F1B original one here. We've tried lots of options and prefer our bikes on the roof, but that isn't for everyone.

I have a Saris Bones. They are an American company, I believe, so maybe worth checking out for US sales?

How about just removing the wheels and putting the bike in the boot (trunk) for now or in the back of the car if the rear seat folds down?

A friend of mine used to drive a very small car but we could get 2 fairly large bikes in the back with their wheels removed and the seat down.
