A vehicle roof top cargo carrier provides pivoting loading/unloading of all types of cargo to and from the carrier via the rear of a vehicle, and, once extended, provides use as a stand/frame for purposes other than carrying cargo. The vehicle roof top cargo carrier has a frame attachable to existing rack members on the roof of the vehicle, a carriage movably carried on the frame and able to pivot with respect to the frame once the carriage is extended from the rear of the frame via cooperating pivot structures of the carriage and the frame. The cooperating pivot structures allow the carriage to pivot from 0° (horizontal) to 90° (vertical), and a support retained on the carriage and configured to adjustably telescope from the rear of the carriage for contacting the ground. The carriage has cargo receptacles for accommodating various types of cargo, and purpose specific attachments for non-cargo functions.
