Yes, we have finally "escaped" from the bonds of the low milage/high emissions cycle we were in with our family cars, at my wife's insistance.

We recently purchased an 05 Escape which my wife drives on a daily basis. Since we do a lot of camping, I am looking for a hitch set up so that I can mount a bike rack and do some "light" occasional towing. Also looking for a roof-top cargo carrier that actually looks good on the vehicle. Any suggestions?
