Has anyone found a roof rack for 2 bikes they really like for their Cruze?

I'd rather avoid a trunk-mount one, as they tend to scrape the #$^@ out of the paint on most cars.

I've grown tired of taking the front tires off and stuffing them in the trunk to go biking somewhere.

Thanks obermd! I had a Thule and crossbars I used to use all the time, but it won't fit newer cars without roof gutters. I think a salesman told me that my old bike holders would fit onto the new Thule racks, though.

The advantage of a roof rack or bars for me is being able to throw luggage in that won't fit in the car up there. A Cruze probably would look really weird with a big Yakima luggage carrier on the top, but it definitely helped moving myself in/out of college with my old Accord

Nick, this car will probably never see the inside of a garage, and it's probably useless to tow anything with.

jblackburn - you obviously haven't been to Colorado. It's common here to see a $500 car carrying a pair of $1500 or more bicycles on the roof.

Haha, nope. But that used to be me when I had that old Honda...

I've never been west of Tennessee...but I'd love to see the whole other part of the country. Some day.
