Will the Exhaust on a 2011 Toyota 4Runner Interfere with Carpod Cargo Carrier
Question:
I gather that the instructions for the Carpod Cargo Carrier m2205-01-02 give a warning about placement near a vehicles exhaust. Do you know if this would be a problem with a 2011 Toyota 4Runner Limited? Thanks!

The Carpod Walled, Folding Cargo Carrier # M2205-01-02 referenced in your question will work well on your 2011 Toyota 4Runner as long as there is a trailer hitch installed.
There should not be any issue with the exhaust on the vehicle hitting the cargo box. The exhaust should sit about level with the trailer hitch opening, and the Carpod Walled, Folding Cargo Carrier # M2205-01-02 features a shank with a built-in rise that will put the carrier above the hot exhaust. The bottom of the carrier will sit 6-1/2 inches above the top of the shank.
I have also attached a short video demonstration and the installation instructions for you to check out.
