Can a 110 Pound Ice Cream Trike be Carried on a 2007 Toyota Corolla LE
Question:
Hello, need to carry a custom ice cream trike - 86 inches long, 40 inches wide. Would appreciate a recommendation, given that there are 1 1/4, class 1 hitches. Thank you!

Since the trailer hitches for your 2007 Toyota Corolla are all Class I there isn't going to be a hitch mounted option that will work. Even with a higher Class hitch the trike carriers are not rated for more than 100 pounds.
The best solution I can offer is to put the ice cream trike on a small utility trailer and tow it. I can offer everything but the trailer. For a trailer hitch I recommend Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24814 with ball mount # 3593. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. And for trailer wiring use # 55542.
