Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to an extendable bumper on a vehicle for transporting or storing objects external of the vehicle. An extendable vehicle bumper for external transportation and storage of objects. A horizontal platform is mounted to the underside of a vehicle frame and is attached at one end to the vehicle bumper. The platform is extendable on a horizontal plane between an open position and a closed position. In the closed position, the platform is supported in a horizontal plane within the vehicle framework on the underside of the rear end of the vehicle. The vehicle bumper serves to access the platform by providing a handle for extending the platform outwardly from the vehicle frame. When the platform is in the open position, the platform extends beyond the vehicle profile and is generally in rigid relation with the vehicle. The horizontal platform is extendable between the open and closed position by support arms fixed to the platform opposite the vehicle bumper.
