Sounds something like our experience when test driving the (older) Cayenne. The seat bolster shape was a deal breaker before even leaving the lot.

Now that I think about it, that's a good point. The roof box basically only had beach related items (chairs and toys) and the stroller.
This reminds me of a flaw with the x3 in that there are very specific measurements for where BMW wants you to place the crossbars, but they don't put any kind of detent or marking on the rails - which would be much easier than making me get out a tape measure to mount the things.
