Could not have order anything better than this item, It actually serve dual purposes; Box, and Flat (When sides close down), strong, durable, and spacious yet very easy to store. I will highly recommend it. 727917

Very happy I came across this product; was about to settle for something less AND pay far more than when I found it at etrailer. I didn't have to worry about strapping our luggage/sleeping bags/misc items on one of those low carriers. This is safe, secure, durable. It saved us all the interior room in our vehicle. Highly recommend it!! ps- customer service was truly excellent. 392338

Weather Proof Cargo Bag Recommendation for 23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier M2205-2201
The recommended cargo bag for the Carpod Carrier part # M2205-2201 that you referenced is the Carpod Bag part # M2202.

What to do With Lid When Folding Up the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier
The lid of the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier w/ Lid # M2205-2201 will actually need to be completely removed when you are completely folding it up. You will want to put the lid elsewhere, like inside your vehicle, if you do not need to use the carrier but still have it in the hitch. This carrier is also available without the lid at part # M2205 if you wanted to just use the carrier with the Cargo Bag for Carpod Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier # M2202. To mount it to your hitch you can use...

Will 23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier with Lid # M2205-2201 Fit on 2012 Honda Pilot EX
Yes, the 23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier with Lid, # M2205-2201, will fit on your 2012 Honda Pilot EX. This carrier is designed for use in a 2 inch hitch receiver and since there is less than 7 inches from the hitch pin hole on a 2012 Pilot to the outer edge of the bumper, there is plenty of clearance to use the folding option and this carrier will work great for you.

License Plate Bracket Needed for 23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier
We do have license plate brackets like part # LP10SB that you could use to move your license plate so it sits behind the 23x47 Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier # M2205-2201. If you plan on driving at night time you should make sure to have a bracket with a light like part # PM436B.

SUP Paddleboard Carrier Recommendation for 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser
SUPs are usually pretty long. The Carpod part # M2205-2201 isn't going to be long enough to fit the length of a SUP like what you have. You are going to have to look into a roof rack mounted SUP carrier like the SUP Taxi part # TH810001 which is a fit for the factory crossbars of your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser.

Can Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier Work With 2017 Chevrolet Equinox
Per the owner's manual for your 2017 Equinox, the towing capacity of your vehicle is 1,500-lbs. When using any hitch mounted items like the Carpod, you are limited at 10 to 15 percent of the towing capacity which would be betwen 150 and 225 lbs maximum. The Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier like part # M2205-2201 weighs 54-lbs so you need to consider that in with the cargo when calculating the tongue weight.

Differences Between Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier # M2200-2201 and # M2205-2201
There are a couple of primary differences between the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier # M2200-2201 and the upgraded # M2205-2201. The first difference is that the Carpod # M2205-2201 features a hinged shank that allows you to fold up the carrier against the vehicle when it's not in use (see attached image). The # M2200-2201 has a fixed shank that cannot be moved. Another improvement on the # M2205-2201 is that it has an angled shank that provides 5-1/2 inches of additional ground clearance. Other...

Hitch Cargo Carrier Recommendation for Carrying etrailer.com Generators # 333-0003-2-0007
The Reese Cargo Carrier part # 6502 has a 500 lb weight capacity but doesn't quite have the dimensions needed to fit both of the etrailer.com generators part # 333-0003-2-0007 so for a better option I'd recommend the 23 inch by 47 inch Carpod Cargo Carrier part # M2205-2201 as it has the dimensions and weight capacity needed, but what I really like about this carrier is that it's enclosed which makes it easier to secure the generators in and also makes it easier to protect them from theft....

Can I Open my Hatch Area on my 2015 Toyota 4Runner When the Carpod M2205 is in the Folded Position
When the Carpod hitch cargo carrier # M2205 is in the folded position, the measurement from the top of the receiver hitch to the top of the Carpod is 3-1/4 inches tall. It's 5-1/4 inches tall overall measuring from the bottom of the receiver hitch to the top of the Carpod. You will have some rattle noise but I don't think it's going to be extremely loud at all. Going over bumps, potholes etc. will cause some rattle but it's certainly very secure. There is an option to get the Carpod...

Will Carpod Cargo Carrier Fold Up and Fit When Used on 2015 Toyota 4Runner
While there is a Carpod carrier that will fold up and work perfectly for you, the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier # M2200 is actually not a folding carrier. Instead, you will need the Carpod Walled Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Folding # M2205 or the same model with a lid, which is part # M2205-2201. Both of these will definitely fit your 2015 Toyota 4Runner and appropriately fold up because it is a full 12" from the hitch pin to the closest part of the carrier (when the carrier...
