Hi guys

I have an idea of building a carrier for my 3 wheeler (yamaha 225 dx) that would hang off the hitch of my 02 explorer. The carrier would be made of steel with a short side rail and a ramp that would hinge down from one side, to roll up the trike. The carrier would be similar to those cargo carriers that are used to carry camping supplies or whatever. The type of carrier that hangs off the hitch. Have any you guys built one like this to carry your trike? I just think it would be a great alternative to building a trailer.
