On the 2 inch hitches we have installed on the 2011 Honda Odyssey we have found that from the center of the hitch pin hole straight back to clear the rear bumper measured 5 to 6 inches. When folded up, the Curt cargo carrier, # C18151, only comes out to 6 inches so it would not clear the vehicle when folded up.
You will want to measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on your hitch straight back to the distance required to clear the rear bumper.
The best bet is going to be the 20 x 48 Draw-Tite carrier, # 6502. It measures 7-1/2 inches from hitch pin hole to the nearest edge of the carrier when folded up. I have included links to the isntructions and a video review for you.
