Out of the two hitches that are confirmed to fit your 2023 Ford Ranger The etrailer hitch # e63ZR and The Curt Trailer hitch # C13417, the etrailer hitch # e63ZR will be the best for the rainy/wet conditions due to the fact that it has an extra coating of rust resistant paint that will help it survive the elements longer than the Curt Hitch # C13417.
The etrailer hitch has a bolt-on installation, and has a matte black powder coat finish, and has a maximum tongue weight up to 900 pounds. The 24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier for 2 inch Hitches # 63153 will work for hauling your extra wood back home and will attach right to the etrailer hitch mentioned above. This carrier has a mesh floor that makes it super easy to clean and has multiple tie down points making it a fan favorite. It has a weight capacity up to 500 pounds. To reduce rattling and to keep the cargo carrier locked to the hitch The Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63232 will be the best lock option for you.
I attached a review video link on the cargo carrier below.
