Question:
I have a mercedes Rx 350 with a 1 1/4 hitch receiver. I need a hitch-mounted carrier that is as lightweight as possible for me 100 lb woman to attach would like it to fold when not in use and want stability when driving. I plan to put 4 full suitcases and maybe some smaller items on the carrier when traveling will need to be strapped down of course. What do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
We offer several Cargo Carriers that will work great with the 1-1/4 inch receiver, but unfortunately none of them are folding models. The folding models we offer are all designed for the 2 inch receiver.The most lightweight cargo carrier that we have available for your vehicle is the Tow Ready 20x48 Railed Cargo Carrier part # 63155, which weighs approximately 45 pounds.Another option would be the Rola 23x56 Railed Carrier, part # 59507. This carrier, although a bit heavier at around 65 pounds, offers approximately 330 square inches more cargo area.
