Why this product

Why the Thule Tram?

The Tram mounts to your hitch instead of the roof, which means waist-height loading and no reaching overhead with wet, heavy gear. 6 pairs of skis or 4 boards, tilts for trunk access. At 23 lbs and requiring a hitch receiver, it is a bigger commitment than roof carriers. But if you hate climbing on running boards in ski boots, the hitch-mount approach changes the experience.
