Got an awsome rack/basket for my ML

FYI: I got a very cool rack system for my ML from Sport Rack in Walnut Creek, CA. IT's a system which uses Thule cross bars and a BVG lo-profile basket. It fits and looks great and only adds about 8 inches to the top--gives the ML a sporty look. The whole thing cost about $500. We have three kids under 3yo so it's great for strollers, bags and stuff.

I have a low overhead door, so the ML barely gets in on its own. But the rack removes in about a minute, so I just take it off.
