Etlsport, who needs a roof rack!? The VX can hold plenty of gear in stock form!
That was what the VX looked like when we moved out of our rented ski house in VT this past weekend. Not only could I not see out of the back window, I couldn't even see the back window!!
On top of that (literally and figuratively), the Yakima cargo box had 3 snowboards, 3 sets of ski poles, and 5 pairs of skis in it!! The little lady and I are pretty equipment-intensive as it is, and 40% to 50% off end-of-season gear sales didn't help matters. THAT was a heavy VX on the way home!
