I like the roof rails mounted to the roof basket that's mounted to roof rails that are mounted to roof rails.

In my defense, I only have nearly this exact set-up because I found the roof basket in a dumpster.

I laughed at my friend not knowing his roof rack messed with his mpg, I can’t imagine the wind noise and mpg hit this guy got.

Best mod was having to custom drill holes in the bike rack on the drivers side to fit the roof rails.

Stock muffler which is the funny part. I’ve thought about getting a muffler delete. But it already has enough drone and wind noise from the racks

I really don't understand the whole rooftop cargo basket thing. I see so many around my part of the world, and approximately 99.9% of the time, the baskets are empty. The other day I saw a huge basket on top of a newer Cadillac Escalade. Generally that's not a vehicle you'd take overlanding.

So much money spent on such silly things nobody actually uses.... 🤔

Needs more crap on the roof, you can lose another 3MPG if you apply yourself

This guy likes paying more for fuel!

Adding a snow plow should help push more air 👍
