Enthusiast I
Warning: I'm a newbie!
I've been researching roof racks and I've noticed they have load ratings that vary wildly. Specifically, Eezi-Awn K9 claims 500lbs dynamic and 1000 lbs static, which seems sufficient to put a roof top tent with my wife and I in it and maybe a kid or two (I have four!) And some misc gear, however this is substantially higher than those claimed by others. The Gobi, which I really like as well claims 300 dynamic and 600 static, which seems tight. Others I've seen are even less. Does this not mean what I think it does?
