MIC 2.0 Versus 13 FT Christmas Tree?

[jlhill16]

I love Christmas trees. Big ones to be exact. For the first time in my adult life I do not own a truck and am planning on putting a 13ft live tree on top. Will that weight crush my beloved hard top?

From the top of my head, I remember the dynamic load weight to be 110lbs for the Bronco.

A 13ft tree weighs less than that.

I recommend a moving blanket over the panels to help with scratching.

Its a rental. You are ultimately in control of how well it off-roads and how many tires are left when you return it.

Is this a live tree with a root ball that your are going to re-plant? Or, a real tree that was cut down. Live tree, doubtful. Real cut down tree, no problem.

Yeah for like $20 you can rent a HD truck. Is it worth the risk?

Cut tree. Think Clark Griswold minus the root ball.

A 13 ft artificial tree will fit inside the Bronco, no problem!

I'd probably go for it if I had the roof rack...no rack would be asking for trouble IMO

The first time I read your comment, I read "math" as "meth"...

That would probably not help the OP find his answer.
