Abstract: A wedge-shaped vehicle carrier for supporting and transporting multi-vehicle loads having high structural strength and stability with a substantially decreased carrier weight. The vehicle carrier includes a lower frame having a forward end with a hitch for connecting the carrier to a truck and a rearward end downstream from the hitch and an upper deck having a face side and a back side. A triangular truss structure is positioned to distribute the load resting on and supported by the face side of the upper deck, the lower frame being positioned a spaced apart distance below the upper deck and connected to the upper deck by the triangular truss structure securedly attached between the back side of the upper deck and the lower frame. In the preferred embodiment, the truss structure includes a triangle truss component extending between the back side of the upper deck and the lower frame and a vertical component attached to and connecting the back side of the upper deck and the lower frame.
