Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today we have the CURT hitch-mounted cargo carrier that fits into the inch and a quarter hitch receiver of the 2023 Mazda CX-5. If you're looking for a cargo carrying solution, maybe you're going for a trip and you wanna carry things not inside your car where it'll get messy, but outside where you might have an easier way of accessing it, plus if it's muddy, dirty, or sandy, it can all just fall out of the cargo carrier, then this might be a good option for you. With the inch and quarter hitch receiver, it is going to have a 300 pound distributed weight capacity. So that is something to keep in mind because that is gonna be different from the two inch hitch receiver capacity. Taking a look at this cargo carrier, it is made of steel, but it also has this black powder coat finish.

Andy: Hello everyone, Andy here from etrailer.com and today we are going to take a look at the etrailer, aluminum cargo carrier, on our 2020 Mazda CX-5. So, with this basket style carrier, it is a great addition to our CX-5. It is an aluminum construction, which makes it very easy to lift on and off, as well as keeping that quality and nice finish, it's going to last for many years to come. One thing that I really like about it as well, is how it is on the lower side, so if you happen to have those heavier items that you don't really want to lift up, let's say you had a cargo box on top of your car, you have the option of putting them in the basket right here. So, if you happen to have some muddy items like camping gear, maybe something that is a little on the heavier side as well, that you don't want to move in and out like a cooler, this would be a great choice.Also, as you can see, it gives us plenty of room in order to access our hatch here, as we'll do so now.
