Default Re: can Acura RDX carry mountain bikes?

I'd recommend you check out the acurazine.com RDX forums. You don't need to
register to browse the messages. There may also be other online forums I
am not aware of.

A roof collapsing and a roof getting dented are two different things. I
just don't believe the roof could have collapsed. Was this kid a SUMO
wannabe ? I'm pretty sure they don't design CUVs roofs for walking, running
and pole-vaulting but I can see the weight of two or three bikes plus a
porky kid and his buddy roof jumping thinking it is a Hummer resulting in a
large dent. So does a collapsed bridge, bridge ? Does a collapsed roof, roof
?
