Question:
Hi, I have a 2003 Ford E450 Shuttle bus. I wanted to see what hitch would work for my shuttle Bus? I what to attach a cargo carrier with a Honda generator attached. I was looking at your bolt on Adjustable RV hitches. Which one will work the best for carrying a generator and cargo carrier the safest? Thank you and have a great day.

For your 2003 Ford E-450 Shuttle Bus, I recommend the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13701. This is rated for 500 lbs tongue weight, which will allow you to safely carry a generator similar to the A-iPower 9,000-Watt Portable Generator # 289-SUA9000E which is 27-1/2" long x 26" wide x 26" tall on a cargo carrier like # FHG69ZR and still have a little extra storage space and weight capacity with the generator weighing 210 lbs dry weight.
If you already have a generator, let me know the specs and I'd be happy to help with a cargo carrier compatible.
