    Storage box for swing away cargo carrier

    Here is the cargo box that is built for the swingaway hitch. https://www.stowaway2.com/max-cargo-box-black Nice, but I think it is a bit expensive for me at $549. Job boxes! Yes that was what I was looking for. Is this the one on the back of Bob's van? ...

    Storage box for swing away cargo carrier

    Hi All, I just put a hitch on the van, I already have a swing away cargo carrier that will go into it. Now I was wondering what would be a good cargo box for it to store gear? I have a wooden foot locker like we used in the army back in the day, god knows how old it is. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    You think you had a bad night camping?

    I feel real sorry for this guy. Lost everything. https://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/index.ssf/2018/08/oregon_man_bemoans_van_lost_at.html A tide book would have been a good idea for him. But, he knows now. I think he has a gofundme page. Hope it works out.
