Your car hauling stuff
Here is my hitch setup with my '10 Stumpjumper Comp 29.
Please post photos of your car hauling stuff - I love seeing the practicality of these cars!

Too many other 'hauling' and/or 'towing' threads already exist.

How did it work pulling that small trailer? What kind of FE did you get with it? I ask because I'm thinking about getting a 4x8 aluminum one to haul firewood and stuff to the cabin.

Hauls fine. It is only a 4x5' aluminum. Weighs about 300 pounds. I don't have a wiring kit installed yet so it has been used only for very short local jaunts. That said, I cannot comment on F/E.

Pics, pics, pics...
Swagman XC2 rack holding two Giant Reigns, one from 2007 and one from 2005.    With a HF box trailer hauling a patio door:   I also have one of these (Raider ATV-23 cargo rack) that I've installed a cheap HF trailer light set on:   The Yaris is surprisingly versatile. |

I already had the light converter and a variety of ball mounts sitting around in the garage, so I went with the least expensive hitch I can find. Yeah, I zipped tied the magnetic lights on the back of the cargo rack. Works surprisingly well. |

How do you like that bike rack? I'm researching what type to get, but I want to make sure the bikes are secured on the rack. Also the rack would be swapped between 2 vehicles depending on needs (both would be class 1 hitches). From the look of the pictures on etrailer.com's website for that rack, it looks like it's velcro straps? Am I correct?
