Re: What have you hauled? Post Pics !!!
I may have exceeded the cargo capacity. I bought 15 bags of mulch yesterday. There was no weight stamped on the bag, but 2 square feet per bag. So I told the lady at Wal-Mart I'd start with 15 bags and come back and get more if I needed any. Afterward I noticed the rear end was slightly sagging.



When I got home I weighed a bag and it was 47 lbs. So I had somewhere between 700 to 750 lbs of mulch in the bed. The sticker says 800 lbs (three people plus payload).
I weigh 150 lbs so I may have slightly overload the payload capacity by 50 lbs.
The rear end got a little squirrely going down the road. Luckily I only had to go about 2-3 miles.

Very nicely done! You should do a short little write up about what you did and I'll add it to the "Modification Tutorials & Links" sticky.kojak001 wrote:First time using the motorcycle rack!

Christmas trees. Earlier I towed a trailer with a riding lawn mower. Things like this, the trees, are the reason I love Bajas. It's a great daily driver, and it can do what no sedan, or hatchback would, and many crossovers are hesitant to. Maybe a hatch could, but who wants all that sap and all those needles IN their car. So much easier than strapping to the roof/rails.
