I picked up my Garvin Wilderness rack locally from a private seller for dirt cheap; retail was at least $400. It was off an '80s Mitsubishi Montero. It's really strong and doesn't flex at all, and it's rated for 500 lbs, but I would never put more than two or three hundred pounds of gear up there since the rack itself is just mounted to my stock roof rails. Even then, I bet 300 lbs would be pushing it. What's nice is it's so big that I spread everything out and don't have to stack anything. I think I've only needed to put 200 pounds up there, and it hasn't had problems yet. Using the stock rails is crap though, in my opinion. I just wish someone would make aftermarket steel rails to replace the plastic with some sturdier mounting points
