Hood to Coast Relay 2009

We sponsored a group of runners in the 2009 Hood to Coast Relay again this year - the infamous Helen's Angels. The Hood to Coast is an annual team running relay and attracts team members from all over the USA.

Helen's team needed some extra room in their van and opted for a StowAway Max Carrier , both for its overall capacity and its swingaway frame. Needless to say they opted to personalize it with their own accessory pack.

The team loved having the extra room for the duration of the race and even found the StowAway handy as a coffee holder.

StowAway Max Helps Civil Support Team

Members of the one of our Civil Support Teams are using a StowAway Max Carrier to help transport their gear. Installed on their unit's command vehicle the StowAway is used to transport the team's "go bags" while on missions.

The team selected the StowAway Max on the swingaway frame so that they would have clear access to the rear of the vehicle and their gear.

CURT Trailer Hitches

Recently, we told you about a new feature at our sister site, http://www.fasttrackracks.com/.

They added a Curt Hitch finder to help you find a Curt trailer hitch for your vehicle. You simply input your vehicle's year, make and model information and the finder will present you with the Curt hitches that will work on your vehicle. Once you've selected the hitch you want, you can easily add a wire harness (for lights) or a trailer ball set per your needs. You will find fasttrackracks.com prices as low as you will find anywhere and they offer free shipping on all hitches.

Fasttrackracks.com exclusively offers Curt Hitches because of their outstanding quality, finish and selection. So if you need a hitch for your vehicle go right to the Curt Hitch Finder on fasttrackracks.com.

Chevy Blazer

Custom, over-sized tires make for a great look. This StowAway2 owner really knows how to outfit his rig. Besides the custom tires, he's got our Max Swingaway Cargo Carrier (with optional Wheel Kit). He also has a Thule Roof Carrier for even more space. Together, the two cargo carriers offer 30+ cubic feet of space. It's like having an entire extra vehicle. Enjoy these pictures!

Chevrolet Suburban Cargo Carrier

Every year, StowAway2 Cargo Carriers is proud to sponsor a team that competes in the Portland to Coast race walk. Our sponsorship team is led by a great group of women nicknamed "Helen's Angels."

This year, they really kitted their vehicle out with decorations, not to mention the largest hitch cargo carrier on the market: the Stowaway2 Max Swingaway. Below, check out their decorated Chevy Suburban.

We love the tail on the back of the box! What a great touch.

Toyota Highlander Cargo Carrier

We here at StowAway2 Cargo Carriers hear nothing but good things about the Toyota Highlander -- recently, it's become one of the most popular vehicles for StowAway2 owners.

Here's a few pictures of our Max Swingaway installed on a sweet forest green Highlander.



As you can see, the Max Swingaway has been outfitted with our most popular accessory: the Wheel Kit.

Rialta Hitch Cargo Carrier

One of the most memorable cargo carrier setups we've seen in a long time is the Towing Cargo Carrier setup pictured below. Behind a Rialta with custom weight distributing hitch setup is our Towing Model in White, which is used for extra storage space when this StowAway2 owner travels throughout the western United States with his vintage VW Bug. Awesome! Enjoy the pictures.


From this view, you can see how the white carrier matches the vehicle and offers plenty of room for the bug to be towed safely.


The StowAway2 Towing Model is a great cargo carrier for those that log lots of miles and need some extra storage space. Here's our StowAway2 Towing Guide with more information about safe use, towing weight capacities, and the like.
