Rage Powersports 48" Waterproof Cargo Carrier Rack Bag - Perfect for Hauling Gear on Your Hitch

Madison Fam: This bag held 4 large suitcases easily with enough gap to fill in with other travel items. We hit some rain along the way and nothing was wet. Traveling in Florida sun and heat in the summer did make the bag very hot to handle at times.

MaureenGBMaureenGB: Update: just returned from a 1900 mile trip. Used the expansion. Through 90~ heat to freezing and torrential downpours thus held up beautifully and kept everything dry!

We used it for the first time this weekend on our small Class B Motorhome. We traveled to the NC Mountains where the temps dropped to freezing. We did not even use the expansion option but were able to store our 10x10 gazebo, the side screens, two umbrella chairs, a small folding aluminum table, a 6' X 8' rug, three plastic bins and a cooler. This is in a Northern Tool cargo carrier that has sides. See pix. We used the six straps to secure it. You can padlock the zippers together which we did. We also used two bike type cable locks to keep the sides together on the cargo carrier because these are held only by small cotter pins which are easily removed. We're not paranoid but cautious when traveling.

The top closes over the zipper and is secured down with Velcro. There's no way moisture is going to get inside. The material is the toughest most rugged material which leads to the bad news:

i gave it five stars anyway because I wouldn't have it any other way but when...

Will: Was hesitant at first; however, this bag has already proven itself... Used it for a long weekend getaway 1 week after purchase. Fits our 5' x 2' carrier like a glove and kept everything dry through over 1,000 miles of driving rain... I was most surprised by the quality and the amount of storage space inside. In the smaller configuration (expandable part zipped) we were able to fit all of our luggage and still manage to open the rear hatch on our Tahoe... I could've fit much more in there with the bag expanded but there was no need and I wanted to retain functionality of the hatch to load our dog in and out of the back. The 6 straps are a nice addition , but I supplemented with 2 large ratchet straps to ensure I wouldn't lose my load. Overall, extremely pleased with this bag and our overall setup... For less than $200 (bag & carrier) we have gained an incredible amount of convenient space. Thankful we decided to go this route as opposed to the Thule ride-on-top box we were considering (>$700).

gusgus: This is a very good product. The size is perfect and the soft sides allow you to stuff whatever you want into it. The water-resistance is as-advertised, I had a nice salt fog from Midwestern winter roads kicked all over the exterior, but the contents were bone dry and free of salt. The side pouches are a nice touch. The bag is thick and well-built, with rugged zippers and enough thickness to stand up when empty and not collapse on itself.
Pros: zippers, size, water-resistance
Cons: straps are sort of wimpy.

BeeJay: I recently purchased this Bag to fit into my Harbor Freight aluminum cargo rack which measures roughly 22" by 48". I wanted a cargo carrier bag to protect suitcases from road dirt and rain. This bag was a perfect match in size and capacity to the rack. I was able to place 6 smaller suitcases on end into the bag with even more room on top for some towels and extra items. The bag has a second zipper which can be unzipped to allow the bag to expand even further. After an 800 mile trip with rain, my bags arrived clean and dry. I did three extra things to improve the overall rack and bag system. The first was to add some bolts between the aluminum sleeve of the cargo rack and the steel support tube to prevent wiggle and wabble. The second was to fabricate some sheet metal "L" shims about 1.75" wide by 3" long to slide in between the steel support tube and the receiver sleeve on the car - I used one shim on the top, one on the bottom and one on the side of the support tube - this made the rack a very solid platform with no wiggle or wabble when I hit dips in the road or made turns. The third thing was to cut and place a thin piece of plywood on the bottom of...
