Hitch Cargo Carrier Recommendation for a 2014 Lincoln MKZ for Carrying Wheelchair
Question:
Will this carrier carry a folding wheel chair safely and easily? I have a 2014 Lincoln MKZ hybrid and my wifes wheelchair currently takes up the entire trunk. I do not have a hitch installed so a trunk rack would be the way to go, I think.

Expert Reply:
You would have to go with a hitch mounted option as there is no safe way I can recommend you carry a wheelchair with a trunk mounted bike rack like the part # HRE3 that you referenced.
For a hitch for your 2014 Lincoln MKZ you would want the Draw Tite hitch part # 24897.
I attached an install video for you to check out.
Then for a cargo carrier you would want the Curt part # C18145.
For a stretchable cargo net you would want the part # C18200 as well.
