If you are looking for a rack for a single bike, I go mountain biking as much as 3 to 4 times a week, so it would be a pain for me to have to install/remove a bike rack every time. My main requirement was a bike rack I could keep on the back most of the time without getting in my way.
I have the 1-Up single-bike rack and love it. Secures my bike great, and when it's not in use, it folds up and allows for full use of both the upper and lower tailgates.
I'm at work now, but here's a shot I grabbed off my phone of my dog giving my bike a good post-ride sniff:
It's always just me riding, so all I ever need is the single bike rack. But 1-up makes add-ons that you could extend the single-bike rack to be a multiple bike rack. Not sure how well the tailgate would work with a rack for more than one bike, though.
