I replied with this in another post but thought it warranted a seperate topic since it's so cheap and looks like shipping is a flat $6.

Was at Cabella's in PA today. They have a nice sturdy rear hitch mount basket on sale for $49.95 and several other models as well. The $50 one had a "Z-bar" which mounted it higher. They call it an ATV basket but it's no different and fits a 2" Hitch .

Yeah, but if the kids are acting up, you could put them back there for timeout. Bet it would work wonders... :twisted:

That one looks a little smaller than some of the other hitch baskets. Heck of a deal either way.

Its about half the size as normal ones, plus its the same price as a full size one at Walmart, even though I hate shopping at Walmarts! That one is designed for an ATV so load capicity would be less also. The way it is designed is cool though
