Curt Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2015 Toyota Highlander- Video
Today on our 2015 Toyota Highlander we're doing a test fit of the Curt 24 x 60 cargo carrier. That part number is C18152. Now we already have our car carrier installed here and we're going to take a few measurements to start off. Beginning with our ground clearance, we're going to have about 16.5", overall to our vehicle we're going to have about 36.75" and our closest point is going to be about 11.75". Now on our Highlander we do have a single passenger side exhaust. It is up underneath our fascia and behind our hitch, but it turns towards the ground so we shouldn't have to worry about carrying heat sensitive materials in a specific region on our carrier. The next thing we want to check is our hatch break over point, since we do have an automatic hatch. more

Lets Go Aero Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2015 Toyota Highlander- Video
Today on our 2015 Toyota Highlander, we are going to be doing a test fit of a Lets Go Aero 32" by 48" Cargo Carrier, part number HCR222. As you can see we've already got it up here on our vehicle so you can see what it's going to look like on the back of yours. Let's go ahead and start off by getting a few measurements. Our closest distance will be our first one, from the backside of the bumper to the front side of the rack at about eight and 1/8", overall distance that we've added to the vehicle is going to be about 42 1/4", with our rear ground clearance being about 13 3/4".Now that we've got those measurements let's go ahead and open up our hatch and see what kind of clearance we have there. Now that we've got our hatch opened up, you can see that you're going to have plenty of access to get in the backside and get out anything that you may need or anything that you may have left behind. We'll go ahead and bring it back down and we'll get our break over distance at which our hatch will make contact with anything we are trying to load. That distance looks like it's going to be about 20 3/4" before anything you stack on your cargo carrier will make contact with your hatch opening. Go ahead and close that back up. Our vehicle does have single exhaust and does exit downwards on the passenger side, so if you're going to be carrying anything that is heat sensitive or perishable, that might be a measurement that you might need at about 20 1/4". Now that you've seen the Lets Go Aero 32" by 48" Cargo Carrier on our 2015 Toyota Highlander, that will complete our test fit for today.Speaker 2: Here you see it out on our test course. more
