I had the same concern during my research (this is my first roof rack, never really needed it when I had my wrx). Yes the roof it self is not an ideal structure for carrying weight (just a thin piece of metal). From what I can tell, in most cars equipped with racks, the weight is actually placed on the hoop section of the safety cell (that big beefy beam that protects you on a roll over). Regardless, still not as ideal as a truck, since the designers really didn't have that function in mind.

I too am in the same school of thought. Sadly, at times, we have to make due with what we have.
