Yeah 1/2 the tent is on the ladder 1/2 on the rack.

I don't see why the aveo couldn't do it. Unless you each weight 300 + pounds. Assuming you don't put 400 lbs of equipment up there either.

the car is back to running great, i installed the stock taillights, took off the evil eye lids and vinyl of the orange lights for better visibility of the vehicle in the woods, also took off the cone filter and reinstalled the stock air box for more TQ, better protection of the engine from dirt roads, and for less noise.

more to come
