Roof Rack (review/update of Thule 480 Traverse)

[Eggman]

I've had couches kayaks a chest freezer all kinds of things ratchet strapped directly to my roof panel.

For those who are wondering, I've collapsed the roof many times. Never had any issues with it popping back out until the chest freezer.

Thank you so much for this post.

There has to be a post of the month for this must surely win.

Well in person it wasn't so glorious. It was a lightweight modern 6 cubic freezer not the old school huge 500lb monsters.

honestly i strapped it down too tight, to close too the back crease (hatch opening) @ bent it up myself.

Hehe it was funny in the quote tho!

Too bad you don't have any pics, be some awesome ones for the "stuff you've hauled" thread

They're kinda crappy pics but the headliner is creased and popped out and the obviously dented area below the square one on each side as promised

Installed permanent Perrycraft Dynasport 35" roof rails. Had my buddy crawl up on the cross bars and there was no roof bending, about 200 lbs. Solid product.

Looks good. Let us know if you think it affects your fuel consumption.
