My wife and I are planning a cross country road trip. I have a Thule Canyon XT basket that I’m going to use. The OEM bars are fine with the basket close by. I haven’t had it loaded for long trips. Does anyone feel that the OEM crossbars are just too tall for platforms/racks/baskets? I’m not concerned about the MPG and drag, but to me it just looks like that weight sitting up an additional couple inches versus using some lower mounted crossbars (Thule or Yakima) could affect the roll and pitch of the BS. Anyone have any thoughts? Or anyone load up a basket or platform with the OEM crossbars and travel extended distances?
