>> Easy setup and exactly as described
I was a little reluctant to buy this based on a previous review that incorrectly stated that it would only work on a 1 1/4 hitch I just installed it on a 2 and everything works great
>> Great item great price no problems whatsoever
This Thule hitch mount hard shell cargo carrier I envisioned as just what was needed to double the effective size of my 2007 Toyota Corolla s trunk It has worked out exactly as expected It s 13 cu ft of space doubles the a little more than 13 cu ft space of the trunk
Everything was in the box for both 1 1/4 and 2 hitch receivers shipping was free and pretty quick in addition to 40 or so off the list price by buying from Amazon assembly and installation was a snap I already had a 1 1/4 receiver mounted on my Corolla along with the flat plug type wiring necessary for the included lights and it has done just what I needed on a 3000 mile trip in the West in May haul my camping equipment while still having the car trunk available for everything else I needed
Only issue is just what I expected from putting such a contrapation on the back of my relatively low slung Corolla i e it will occasionally drag when going up or down a sharp incline However this is usually quite avoidable by paying attention by going slowly up and down such inclines like pulling into or out of a gas station or convenience store and taking such inclines at an angle i e not perpendicular to the street
A major upside of these type carriers is that one gets less wind drag and better mileage from such this configuration versus the high wind drag of roof mounted carriers Evidence I got over 41 mpg on my noted 3000 mile trip I also does not obstruct the view out the back window at all essentially

>> Buyer Beware
Wrong product packaged by Thule
The 665C should fit 2 and 1 1/4 Trailer Hitches The product packaged by Thule only works on 1 1/4
I had to by a converter from a local company at the cost to me of 40 to make this work
This product cost over 60 to ship so I did not return it to Amazon
Buyer Beware When buying large items buy local The cost to return an expense item puts the buyer in a tough spot
PS Thule was difficult to deal with They would NOT admit they packaged the wrong carrier
