Good luck with the rack and hope it does grow wings or feet.
Amazingly enough, the 1UP rack weighs in at 46 pounds. The Thule that was nicked weighed in at 51 pounds.
Either way, these are heavy. My car has a sports suspension which means that it sits lower to the ground (my wife and I have matching cars and hers has the standard suspension and it does sit higher).
The Thule used to scrape when going over some driveways, the 1UP does not scrape.
But your suggestion about getting air shocks is a good one...maybe I will get hydraulic lifts.
