Recommended Cargo Carrier for Gas Cans, Water Bottles, and Spare Tire for Class B Motorhome
Question:
Recommendation Needed: I am purchasing a Class B RV on a 2021 Ram Promaster 3500 chassis. I am looking for a hitch attachment that can hold a spare tire looks like diameter is 29 1/2 inches, and some extra 2 1/2 gal gas cans and 2 1/2 gal water bottles. Ideally the set up will still allow the rear door of the van to be opened clearing this cargo, and not interfere with the Thule bike rack that comes installed already on the van. Please let me know what you think would work. Take your time, the van wont be available for me until January. Thanks!

For your 2021 motorhome on Ram Promaster 3500 Chassis with Thule bike rack on rear door, I recommend using the Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks - 2" Hitches - Passenger's Side # PVP20B. The 32x48 Reese Solo Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - 400 lbs Item # PS1040100 is likely the best option. There isn't a perfect fit for the spare tire as well as the gas and water cans, but this carrier has the largest cargo space with weight capacity.
