I want to get a roof box for my 2009 VW Jetta Sportwagon. I understand the longer-is better argument, but I think that with wind coming off the windshield, you'd be better off with a shorter, stubbier (and/or shorter, wider) box placed as far back as possible -- that way more wind coming off the windshield would go over the box instead of getting shoved into the underside of it. And, yeah, I'd install it blunt-side forwards. Thoughts?
