Thanks to all for the info. A Seeker-I am also concerned about the ground clearance with the cargo box. Cyndi-Locks will be important and the raised hitch would be helpful. Get Smart-Do you have some type of cargo bag that you use with the rack? Zil-Vantrekker's box looks great. =Slow2day-The raised, dual hitch looks workable. Akrvbob-I will be watching for your post. I am trying to weigh the pros and cons of the cargo carrier vs the cargo box.
