Subject:      GoWesty Hitch

Hey all.

I was thinking of getting the GoWesty hitch to use for a nice bike rack. One that will fold down so I can get in the rear hatch without taking it off.

I am thinking of also looking into the cargo carriers that slot into the hitches. I see a lot of them that seem to hang kinda bent and low. Straining under weight.

Has anyone here used one of these carriers? What kind of weight is appropriate? Anyone with a GoWesty hitch tried one of these. I ask about the GoWesty hitch because I realize they are limited in what weight they will carry before the tow rings bend. Any feed back on the hitch is appreciated. Merv.
