Re: (Kincaid)

I went from a truck to a vibe, so I need something for camping, vacation etc. A little trailer will allow me to keep some of the enjoyments of camping. I am lucky my brother inlaw has a flat bed truck so now I use that for everything else.

Re: 2010 roof rack (midnighthunder89)

The roof box can go on, with no problem. THe main issues is that you cannot open the rear hatch.Also, I contacted the dealer and the roof rack is rated at 165 lbs, but he ( service rep) recommended that you do not go pass 150 lbs.Which is what the thule ( 16 cub ft) is rated for.Don
