Cargo Carrier
Cargo Carrier
Thank you for your time. I have added a folding cargo carrier to the van. The video below shows how to assemble it. I have had mine for three years and it is holding up pretty well. I put a cargo bag and a standard cargo box in the carrier. I keep wood and other essential items for camping and travel on the road. This created more room in the van because I can put more things in the carrier.
- FOLDABLE SIDE RAILS: cargo carrier hitch mount with 13.8″ side rails that are foldable to 2.8″, foldable when not in use.
- CAPACITY: 500 lb. distributed weight. Distribute the weight evenly on the platform when hauling a load to keep it balanced, or place load in the center. Hitch mounted cargo basket is ideal for traveling, camping, tailgating, and road trips.
- 2″ RECEIVER: folding cargo basket hitch mount fits 2” vehicle receivers, high folding leg for ground clearance.
- SPRING HOOKS: hitch luggage carrier with spring hook design, easy to pull and fold or open side rails.
- 1 PIECE CONSTRUCTION: strong 1 pc construction, easy assembly, Matte black powder coating finish that resists the elements, rust and scratches.
Also, the cargo bag is holding up for about 3 years. It has been on the carrier permanently, sitting outside in the wind and rain, keeping things dry.
Cargo Carrier Bag
- Constructed from PVC material with polyester reinforcement and UV coating
- Features welded seams and a heavy-duty zipper that is placed around the 3 sides of the bag
- The zipper is covered with hook loop flaps to improved water protection. Zippers come with large holes allowing use of padlocks for extra security.
- (8) 1-1/2″ wide polypropylene straps keep your bag secured to your cargo carrier.
- When in use, approximately 47″ long x 20″ wide x 20″ high with a maximum of 11 cubic feet volume capacity. Can be easily folded for compact storage.

The Wonderful Mitsubishi Delica 4×4
The Delica is one of the coolest vans made by the Japanese. The 4×4 is the best van to explore or overland. The video below is a compilation of several Delicas. This is a popular van in Washington, Oregon and Canada. If parts and mechanics were readily available, where I live, I would own this van.
There is several versions of the Mitsubishi Delica. The Delica is considered a minivan. I’ve seen many folks put diesel heaters for vanlife off-grid camping. This van can practically transverse anywhere.
