Roof Racks? Weight limit with glass top?

[JamesT]

I love my Bronco Sport Badlands. One problem is the sunroof greatly reduces the weight you can carry on top safely. An issue for RTT, kayaks, etc.

Will either scout support roof racks and with those windows, will carrying weight be compromised?

@JamesT The production Scout will have roof rails and also a steel roof version. --

I guess you'll find out, I would think that weight goes along the edges, where the rack attaches, not the center of the roof, so I don't know why the sunroof matters. But TBD.

we had a very long discussion about this on the bronco sport forum. Learned much but it’s been a limit. https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/real-world-roof-weight-limits.5486/
