::REPOST – We just used ours again this weekend and had someone ask us about it, so I am reposting!::
I know this is a frugal blog but it is also my family blog AND an in general, “how to make your life easier” blog. You didn’t know you were getting all that in one did you?!
This weekend we went out of town to the Frio river for a long weekend. On Sunday as we were eating lunch it occurred to me that how handy the “Hitch Haul” that we have really is. The Hitch Haul is a platform that you can attach to the back of your truck or car to give you added storage space for your vehicle. This is one of the best, if not the best, under $100 purchases we have made for traveling! Well, beside the adapter to charge my computer while driving…
Sunday we used it as a picnic table to have lunch on, and again on Monday! Usually we use it for the ice chest, water cooler and extra Rubbermaid’s that don’t fit in the truck. We have used it to haul wood, hay and anything else that is dirty to avoid having to vacuum out the truck when done. We used it for boxes when we moved.
We purchased ours at Amazon for around $70. It has been so used and needed I think it is one of the best purchases you can make if you travel!
Part comedian, part Dad, part athlete. He will boss around your children while they play ball.
Just as angelic as she looks, this girl could easily raise a Village by herself, and all the children would grow up to be President.
Self proclaimed, she would be a webkinz dog. Because, "they're cute, and puppies are too. And they're sweet and they always get along with other puppies."
This mini-Martha Stewart can handle ANY craft you send her way. She isn't all bows and rainbows, she's got karate kid moves!
Not "Pick-Me-Up" like caffeine, she wants you to pick her up! AND NOW!
Anything that can be destroyed WILL be destroyed!
Practically Perfect in Every Way for now! Nicknamed "The Panda" she is rolly polly and lives by the motto, "the little one, is KING!"
The resident Labradoodle, Miller got his name because Mom won and got to name the baby! Need something chewed up? He'll take care of it. Especially if it's expensive..
Just my opinion….but I wouldn’t put your dog in a dog carrier on the back of your vehicle….can you imagine if someone hit you from behind??? Just a thought….
How funny I was just talking to my husband about getting one of these!
Yes those are great, sadly we do not own one as of yet. Recently took a Tahoe full of girls up to the Austin area for the weekend and had to borrow one of those and a roof top carrier just to get the girls to Austin with all of their stuff. 🙂
We bought one this summer and we LOVE it. I will say that we got an aluminum one and they are super light. It was a little more, but well worth it in my opinion. We got ours at Harbor Freight and Tool and it was right at $100.
My hubby uses his quite frequently, generators to the beach, pump for work, ice chests, double stroller, extremely useful. Harbor Freight has them on sale quite often, the last Q I saw had them for $69.99! I always pick up the free item in their ad
We bought 2 of those when we evacucated for hurricane ike…Best investment
I had to purchase one of those (it was the fold up kind) for our trek from CA to MI when we moved out here a month ago. It was a little more expensive to get the foldaway kind, but I LOVED it! Every night we’d stop, take off the luggage for the hotel and fold it up. So nice! Wouldn’t make a trip without it!
The one on the link is $59 is that the one?
