The MaxxHaul 70107 cargo carrier can hold up to 500 pounds, according to the manufacturer's product description. It's got a decent-sized platform, about 53 by 19.5 inches, and fits standard 2-inch hitch receivers. So, it'll likely work with most SUVs, vans, trucks, and RVs.

Setting this up is usually pretty easy, from what we found in our research. Everything you need for assembly is in the package, but it's good to double-check that everything's there when you get it. With help, it generally takes under half an hour to get it set up.

The high side rails are handy for keeping your stuff in place while you drive. It's made from heavy-duty steel and had a rust-resistant coating, but some folks noticed minor rust spots or issues with the coating after some time. If you're driving on salty roads, a bit of touch-up paint might help keep it in better shape.

There have been a few mentions of it wobbling a bit at the hitch. If that’s a concern, some extra stabilization might help.

Overall, it seems to be a solid pick for adding storage without spending too much, making it a popular choice among families and road-trippers alike.

There might be some room for improvement in terms of finish, but it generally does the job well for most people.
