well i don't put it on all the time. i notice a solid 1mpg loss when it's on, due to the increased drag.

the in cabin air noise is hardly noticable until you get over about 70. after that you notice it, but it's not loud. keeping the sunroof shade closed helps too.

at first i thought the basket/attaching hardware was squeaking, but i think the squeak is actualy one of my roof rail mounts. not sure how i'm going to tackle that one yet. it's not -bad-, it's just enough to be hella annoying to me because i can't stand -any- kind of rattles or squeak. might not bother some people though.

and these 'complaints' probably actually go for any roof rack you put on, so take it for what it's worth.


other than that, i love it when i have it on. gives it more of an offroad look :)

Yea I was reading some of the reviews on the basket and it got a lot of high marks. I don't have a sunroof on my pathy so hopefully I won't hear too much. Definitely gonna get it before my next Offroad trip. Thanks again!
