The side rails on this hitch basket offer limitless tie-down options. When it's not needed, just fold the cargo carrier up against your vehicle.Just used the carrier this last week which worked great with a storage container and some ratchet straps. You obviously need to be aware of it when coming out of a parking lot with a steep driveway as it will scrape but I only had issues with it once the entire week I used it. The flip up feature works great. Especially when you need to parallel park! I debated about the 20 vs the 24 but the length is plenty if you plan to use it with a storage container or get a few bags of mulch or something. I also chose the smaller version as the TW is 400lbs and this is cantilevered out so you really can't put the max capacity on the carrier depending on the hitch rating. Just be aware of the true dimensions as the interior is not 20x60 (mine measured 19.25x57.5). I also appreciated e-trailer EXCEPTIONAL customer service by ensuring this got to me in time for my trip. I got immediate response from them when asked about shipping and the package actually came ahead of when they promised. I will definitely be using e-trailer again. 148222
Installation: Easy Assembly: Easy Attached to: Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" Item # C13163 Use: Camping equipment. Cooler, Chairs, Sleeping bags, firewood, etc. Like: The fact that it folds is a huge positive. What I would change: perhaps adding a ring or two on the sides to allow for bungee cords or rope. Because the hitch is already a bit low on the 2017 Mitsubishi Outlander (stock wheels, tires, suspension) the back part of the basket can bottom out rather easily. It has nothing to do with the carrier itself though. I would definitely recommend this product! I'm going to use it again in a month for our next camping trip. 639475
It was very hard to figure out what kind of cargo carrier would be the best for my needs, until I got on your website. Your videos are very informative to help with making the decision of which cargo carrier was best. It was very easy to put together, and very strong (I put my husband in it)this is perfect for our vacation transportation. 259240
Cynthia D - 06/09/2017Lost my truck recently and needed a way to take in recycling without stinking-up the SUV. Cargo carrier assembled easy and worked great on the first trash run. Flipped-up perfectly for the follow-on shopping trip. 699695

Etrailer has their act together. Don’t go anywhere else for all your trailer/ hitch / etc. 896262
Arrived within a couple of days of ordering. Easy to assemble and I had no issues with fit or missing pieces. I haven't used it yet, but seems like it will haul camping gear as intended. 874116

Hold all the stuff with needed for our road trip. 856724
Our SUV did not have quite enough cargo space to take everything we wanted to take on a vacation with friends. We were able to strap our dog crate and a large ice chest on this carrier and it was easy to use. When empty, it folded up and was out of the way. When down and loaded with the dog crate and ice chest, the back door of the SUV opened and closed with plenty of clearance. 851134
Excellent service and very fast delivery (3 days) Good product to. Wish all sellers on the net were this good. 831291
I could not use the cargo carrier on my Jeep Wrangler Unlimited because when I opened the rear door it would hit the carrier and we could not access the back end without taking the carrier off. No one told me at etrailer the carrier would not work. 822625
Victoria B - 07/10/2020We used this to haul a few extras we couldn't fit in our SUV for a camping trip. I loved how well it held and being able to fold it up when it wasn't in use. 820371
Used for various moves, debris transport and camping with my 4Runner. Easy to assemble and install. Only suggestion is adding some more reflective tape for safety (but not necessary). I’ve used a rolo cargo bag for added storage organization which pairs with it well. Otherwise bungees are ok. FYI Backup sensor must be turned off while in use or they go cray cray. 814997
I used for one year and I’m very satisfied with the product!! 804033
The carrier performed exactly as expected & described a very well-built item. A local repair shop installed the mount, assembly of the carrier took less than twenty minutes. The carrier bag that was designed for the carrier kept our cargo clean, dry, and snug. Excellent product for a reasonable price -strongly recommend! 794444

Reynaldo - 12/07/2020Great price for a solid product and excellent customer service. 719032
I was moving from Texas to Washington and I drive a small SUV. I desperately needed more space in order to travel with the things I needed. Most of my car was housing myself, two friends, a cat, and my fish tank so we were already pretty packed. Thankfully, my dad purchased one of your hitch packages and the shipping was incredibly fast. The product was super easy to learn and I was able to put it together and take it apart by myself. We couldn't hear a thing back there on our long drive and it weathered a good amount of rain and even a hail storm on our way up. The basket and hitch was definitely a life saver and now I get to use it for when I go camping! 715859
Fourth purchase with etrailer. amazing company all around. 710615
all pcs. were in the box. assembly was no problem, everything bolted together well. hooked to the truck but have not used it yet. what do you recommend to prevent loosenees or wabble once place into the hitch ? 703143
Victoria B - 09/23/2019It’s doing what I want it to do. It made possible for me to put my generator with my camp trailer at all times. Without loading and unloading it from my truck every time I go camping. 700637
