I'm going to need to switch to a hitch mounted rack, but it seems like everyone else had the same idea and things are sold out all over. Any suggestions or am I boned?
if your vehicle is lower then a hitch-mount tray style is nice for lifting, but be aware of height of rack off ground (think of entering/exiting some parking areas that are sloped or transition to/from entry ramp. Some are higher than others.

You CAN get stuff online, and/or watch Kijiji/Marketplace and be willing to move super fast and pay asking pricing.
