Well.... that is true. Most of the racks I have seen appear pretty thin

Re: Uhhhhhhhh.... WTF?
I would get a helluva lot of stuff up there. Me, wife, and baby...along with
2 dogs (85 lb Lab and 55 lb lab boxer mutt) plus cooler, and all the stuff that the baby needs (wife requirements) for a week. I could use the extra room, and i'm driving an unlimited. Only so much you can put on one of those receiver hitch racks. And there's a lot less room in my wife's sedan to pack the family for a trip. Worst case scenario...I have a dry spot to sleep on those warm summer nights after the trail.
