I need more room for camping gear than my mini pickup bed can carry. I've been looking for roof mounted baskets / racks and only really saw the Gobi stuff. It's nice, but they sure are proud of it. ;) I thought about using the Yakima Mega Warrior w/ extension that was on my last vehicle. It holds a lot more than the Gobi because it is high enough on the factory bars to not interfere with the sunroof and runs most of the length of the H2. It does look pretty narrow though. I'm not sure the Gobi is worth it because of all of the lost space. The spare will remain out back.

What do you think of the Mega Warrior setup? It is just mocked up for now and the factory bars would have to be spaced out differently. Any other ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

way to narrow IMO, doesn't look like its the right rack for an H2. The Gobi's are very expensive but are supposed to be the best. I plan on buying a stealth for my SUV pretty soon. Gobi's are made exactly to fit the top of the H2's and look very good also!
