Arksen

Arksen is a direct-to-Amazon outdoor and auto accessory brand. They sell hitch-mounted cargo carriers, rooftop cargo bags, and truck-bed accessories at budget-to-mid pricing.

Their aluminum cargo carriers are notable because they're genuinely lighter than comparable steel carriers, which matters if you're hitting a 500-pound tongue weight limit. Build quality is better than MaxxHaul but not quite at CURT level.

For a once-a-month road trip carrier, Arksen is a solid value pick.
