Try to be an optimist about that lawyer. He may realize they are full of it, fall in love with the VX, and keep it for himself. We already know it is one of the least prone to roll over suv type vehicles available. Oh wait... my whiplash is acting up again.... whats his phone number?

Im not going to waste too much time on the top heavy trooper thing. Its been beaten to death. After owning three of them, I couldnt disagree more. I had 33" Mud Rovers on a 98 Trooper, and it would still outhandle most large SUV's and all pickups. For those that actually bought into the domestic manufacturer paid negative advertisement about Troopers, just think- they all went out and bought safe and reliable Ford Explorers to keep themselves and their families safe. Thats the sad part.

Oh yeah, my opinion on the small weight capacity of the rack is that the rack will hold much more, but in the case of extreme g forces like an accident or evasive maneuvering, they kept the capacity small to try to keep the stuff on the roof. Same principle as to why the Trooper has a higher towing capacity than the VX. Even though some of us "push the limits" more than others LOL
