The first vehicle coupler is configured to be coupled to a vehicle and includes a first receiver having a first substantially rectangular cuboidal cavity and a second receiver having a second substantially rectangular cuboidal cavity. A first connector couples the carrying section to the first vehicle coupler through the first substantially rectangular cuboidal cavity. A second connector couples the carrying section to the second vehicle coupler through the second substantially rectangular cuboidal cavity.
