crossroad Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) Well for now i have a welded aluminum basket that is 22"x33". I need a bigger one for certain trips etc. I really like the curt 18153 folding steel (supposedly made in usa) https://www.etrailer.com/Hitch-Cargo-Carrier/Curt/C18153.html surco 52018F (made in usa) https://www.etrailer.com/Hitch-Cargo-Carrier/Surco-Products/52018F.html and lastly the Rola 59502. (not made in USA but highly recommended in 4x4 crowd ) https://www.etrailer.com/Hitch-Cargo-Carrier/Rola/59502.html I am not dead set on getting a usa made one, but it would be nice. Im not even sure if i absolutely need the folding feature. In all honesty it will most likely be used for up north trips to extended family's house. I was more or less wondering about the unloaded weight of 70ish pounds of all of these racks. Will it make the truck squat really bad once you load up another 200-300lbs? Most of my loads will consist of a cooler, shade tent, chairs etc. so not a ton of weight but it adds up. Im also thinking "buy once , cry once" as far as the pricing goes. I will have it "forever".
