The articulating cargo rack includes a lower, frame subassembly, connected to an upper, rack subassembly pivotably connected to the frame subassembly. The rack subassembly is configured to move between a horizontal position and a slanted position, after the back end of the rack subassembly is moved with a downward and rearward motion.
