Today, on our 2010 Ford Edge we're doing a test fit of the Curt 20x48 Cargo Carrier. That part number is C18110. It has a weight capacity of 300 pounds, and works with both inch and a quarter and two inch hitches. First thing we're going to do while it's on our vehicle is take a few measurements, ground clearance being first. We're going to have about 15 inches of clearance. That is because we have that raised shank in the back which is going to lift our carrier even higher than our hitch. Overall to our vehicle, we're adding about 25 1/2 inches, and our closest point is going to be about 7 inches away. As for our Edge, we do have dual exhaust, one on the driver and one on the passenger side. more
