Cargo Carrier With Ramp for RV to Carry Generator
Question:
Ive purchased a larger generator for our 5th Wheel, 10,000 watt and 180 lbs. Now I need to locate and purchase the best/strongest cargo carrier that will attach to the rear of our RV. This carrier also needs a ramp that touches the ground so I can pull/roll the generator on and off when needed. Can you give me any suggestions please?

Expert Reply:
For a cargo carrier that you'll be using on the back of a trailer you will need a fixed carrier as opposed to a folding one to have the best stability. There are a couple options for a fixed cargo carrier with a ramp for you. I recommend the Reese Steel Solo Cargo Carrier and Folding Ramp # PS10401-10402.
I recommend the Reese because it does not have a speed restriction and also has the largest usable space of 47-3/4" long x 31-3/4" wide. It also has a 400 lb weight capacity which is more than enough for your generator.
The Reese carrier comes with a pin and clip but if you want to lock it to your hitch you will need the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63232.
