    Cargo box for Model Y hitch

    Hi, I need just a bit more storage for road trips. Since I have a hitch, I’m thinking of skipping the roof rack / cargo setup and go with a hitch cargo box (less expensive setup, easier to remove vs roof rack). Any thoughts? Anyone has experience with such a setup?

    Hitch install in Richmond, VA?

    First off, I'm still open to any Model 3 single-bike hitch rack recommendations, but it seems the Stealth Hitch is probably the best way to go. So I'm now in the process of locating shops to get extra work done (PPF, tints, etc.), and I'm having some trouble finding a place to do a Stealth Hitch...

    Towing travel trailer with Model Y
