Were you headed east on I-90 yesterday? I passed someone with a roof top tent like that when I was headed west over snoqualmie and it looked just like your JK.

Boy oh boy, I don't know if it is usually like that but traffic was a mess headed east. I came back over last night and it took me forever to get through the congestion. You might have seen me on my way in. I was driving a Commando green unlimited Rubicon pulling a trailer. Went to get me an arb bull bar on CL.

Mill Creek, I was the first email. Sometimes you get lucky I guess. Ended up costing me over seven hundred total, but I got a fun drive and meals out of that money and met a great fellow Jeeper. We talked for over an hour about setups and experiences and it was fun. Due to the death of my father and adding on to my house its been a LONG winter, so it was a good excuse to play hookie from work and go for a drive! I enjoyed seeing all the other Jeeps up that way, including yours. I told my wife to look at that JK with the Maggiolina tent, and she looked at me like I was speaking french. She doesn't speak fluid Jeep/overlander.

I sent another email yesterday to check on the status of the racks for a 2 door JK. This is the response:
I still have some thinking to do about whether to go with a roof rack vs. trailer but this certainly does help.

Do you roll with a soft top a lot?
No, never. I only have a hard top and I have only taken it off once for just a couple days. I like my AC too much I guess.
My conundrum is that I can see myself getting more use out of a trailer (M416 style) for yard tasks as well as camping. A roof rack would be more convenient since I wouldn't have to deal with spotting a trailer or be worried about it walking off if I went hiking or fishing. They are about the same cost and I am just not sure which I'd rather have. Fact of the matter is that I need space to carry things.

I would go Roof rack and get your self a cheap harbor freight trailer for yard junk.

Don't think u will have a problem anchoring anything down, there are two main supports that run down on the inside and supports that run from side to side about every 4 inches. Baja may make something for light support a bar or something but you would have to remove the wind deflector.

Still happy with the rack
