Flint Hill Goods Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2017 Toyota RAV4 FHG87ZR

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer, and today, we'll be taking a look at how the Flint Hill Goods Steel Cargo Carrier fits on the 2017 Toyota RAV4. This is gonna be a compact steel cargo carrier, great if you have limited space inside of your shed or your garage, but you still need to add extra cargo space to your vehicle. So this will go right into the hitch of your RAV4, and it's gonna be helpful if you have larger or dirtier items that you don't want dirtying up the interior of your vehicle. So taking a look at how this fits on the RAV4, this is gonna be very compact. So for our measurement, it's gonna be about 53 1/4 by 19 3/4 inches, easy to store in your shed, but when you have it on your car, it will still take up a little bit of space. So I like to measure from the bumper going out, we have it at about 2 feet or 24 inches. more

Hi, everyone. It's Angeline here at etrailer, and today we'll be taking a look at how the Flint Hill Goods Aluminum Cargo Carrier fits on the 2017 Toyota RAV4. So if you need a little bit of extra space in your vehicle but you don't wanna put things inside your vehicle, maybe they're muddy, dirty, extra bulky, a great way to create that extra space is with a cargo carrier. This is gonna be an aluminum one, so it's on the lightweight side, and the design for this one is gonna have a shallow rail. Good for maybe larger items, especially if you don't need to strap them down as much to the side rails. Now for the size of this, it's gonna be 48 by 21 inches, so it's gonna be on the medium size. more

Right now we have the etrailer aluminum cargo carrier loaded up. Now let's just go over some features of it for you guys, see how it's going to interact with your RAV4.To start, I want to point out having an aluminum cargo carrier is a great advantage. You're taking the amount of ton weight added to your vehicle and you're cutting it out by a lot, and when you compare it to a steel folding cargo carrier, so you're not going to have as much weight back there when it's empty and not as much weight even when it's filled up. You're still going to have a 500 pound weight capacity, which is right in line with a lot of other cargo carriers we carry, so you're not really sacrificing too much there.As far as storage space for it, we'll measure inside rail to inside rail. more
