I know, I got a $200 fold up menards (harbor freight) job in the garage, it is rated at 1000 lbs and the car doesn't mind it once in a while. I cant imagine taking a full time mpg/insurance/handling hit for the few times we need to haul stuff. I've used it for landscaping, camping, canoes, motorcycles, appliances, lumber/drywall, the works and on a vehicle that can get 50+ mpg the rest of the time (that would be %99.99 of the time).
