Mounting a hitch on an E350 for a bike rack
I would like to hear from others that have mounted a hitch to their E350 for holding a bike rack. i am considering doing this.

2014 E350 Wagon
Thanks for making me look as I was about to write that there is no hitch for the 2014 as of yet but there is a Curt hitch now that would work. I installed one on my BMW 328xi and it worked like a charm. Install was straight forward and used it not only to put my bike carrier on it but also to pull an 8ft trailer with 3 dirt bikes. Americans just don't get it that you don't need an SUV for the most part like ever...
There is only one caveat: If you have the newer keyless-go with the foot activated trunk it might be an issue as the foot activated trunk and the hitch are mutually exclusive options in Europe on the Wagon so I'm not sure how it would work.
I'm about to drop $170 myself to find out on my wagon... I need to scratch that hitch itch!
