    Hitches are easy to find for the prius C. Finding a plug n play (not universal) wire harness is the issue I have!

    I'm having a tow hitch installed today at Uhaul. I'm going to be using it for a bike rack. I'm wondering if it's safe to carry more than two bikes on the Prius C?

    It depends, mostly on the weight of the bikes. 50+ lb beach cruisers, or 20 lb racing/triathlon bikes? Most class 1 hitches aren't rated for much tongue weight load, something like 200lbs. That includes the weight of the carrier plus the load.
