my condolences

Did you ever find out who built the rack? I have an Ex not quite that big that we take to a dunes area near Lake Michigan and that would be the perfect set up on holiday weekend when the beach is full to just park next to the beach and lay out on top.

love the fact that I just found this thread looking up roof racks, and realize the OP lives in the same city I do with another white excursion.

small world.
