thats a good point toad, yeah that could be bad, but I think it would be hard to get that much weight back there.

No one usually loads that much weight but when it is needed it's there and isn't really effected while Highway driving.

More times than not being able to "cargo up" the rear is handy for going out to your offroad spot.  Many guys even pack spare axles and such but dump most of that gear before they hit the trails at their "base camp"  

I took my back seat out last year to haul some tools and such and havn't put it back since.  I can fit 2 kegs/trash cans and 20 bags of ice back there now without flinching  ;)

EDIT:  Or a smoker and a cooler full of meat  :aok

Anyone know why it's "A Jeep thing-You wouldn't understand"?  Try flushing the radiator and take a good deep sniff of the coolant.  Smells like someone took a dump in the radiator and left it for about a year. MMM MMM GOOD!
