Arctic Fox Travel Trailer Cargo Carrier

As we've said many times, we always love hearing from StowAway2 owners, with pictures of their rig. This afternoon, we got a nice note from Tom J. (Montana) who wrote to say,

Hey guys & gals... Having the need for more storage in my 31' Arctic Fox travel trailer, I opted to mount a Stowaway2 on the rear of the RV. I purchased the storage pod from Camping World. I... plugged the Stowaway2 into the receiver. It's just like on a truck or SUV, but on the rear of an RV, and is as solid as a rock. Connecting the Stowaway2 wiring to the RV wiring harness was a cinch. Thought you might like to see some pictures. I'm looking forward to my next trip and the extra storage space provided by the Stowaway2.

Here are a few pictures that Tom sent us.



Tom purchased our Max cargo carrier. Here's a link to the Max box by itself; here's a link to our popular Max Swingaway Cargo Carrier.
Thanks again for writing Tom; if anyone else has a story you'd like to share, please let us know!

StowAway2 Showroom Updates

The StowAway2 Showroom has, for the past year, housed tons of high-quality pictures and detailed product specs for all of our boxes and frames. This week, we are happy to announce that the Showroom has expanded to include all of our hitch mounted racks as well.

At StowAway2, we now offer specific showrooms for our bike racks, cargo racks and a fishing rod rack.

These showroom additions follow on the heels of our three new product launchces, the StowAway2 Rainier Bike Rack, the Shasta Bike Rack and the Fixed Cargo Rack. Be sure to check out our new showrooms and let us know if there is any additional information that you'd like to see.

Brand New StowAway2 Rainier Bike Rack

Just in time for summer it's the brand-new StowAway2 Rainier Bike Rack!


The Stowaway2 Rainier is an updated, upgraded version of our bike cargo rack. The Rainier now features everything you could want in a bike rack: it swings for clearance, it has a cargo tray for tons of capacity, and it includes security and stability features like a hitch lock/cable lock (single key) and a hitch-coupling tightener.


Perhaps the most important update to the design is a new bracket which moves the bike post further from the vehicle, allowing for more vertical room in the cargo tray (perfect for storing large items like coolers, luggage, etc). And check out this cool schematic that highlights just how much additional room there is in the storage basket. The brand new StowAway2 Rainier retails for $499. To order the Rainier online, go here.

Toyota Land Cruiser Cargo Carrier

New StowAway2 Owner Ella B. also stopped by this week to get a cargo carrier loaded on to her Toyota Land Cruiser. She went with the Max Swingaway, which continues to be our most popular model.

If you haven't already, you might head over to Youtube and check out our Swingaway Cargo Carrier Video. The Max Swingaway, pictured above, is 25% larger than the carrier pictured in the video-- for even more storage space.
