Getting the Wheeling Fever

i am tired of not having a gun when i have a use for one so i am looking at these roof mounted gun racks for the sport. has anyone ever done one? i'd like to get this one http://www.cabelas.com/prod-1/0005330220670a.shtml, do we have a double walled roof? if not i will get this one http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/t...mp;amp;cm_pla=N/A&cm_ite=netcon. i like the first one cause its a little simpler and easier to install and looks like it would mount up a little sturdier to me. let me know what you think.

I hope to God you are talking about hunting... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

If not, well, there's always CCW <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

As for the roof, in my experience the Sportage roof is really flimsy, I wouldn't bolt anything heavy to the sheet metal. It flexes and dents in really easily. You would probably have to go with the second one.
