A roof rack will add to the amount of cargo that you can carry with your Dodge Caravan. There are specialized roof racks for snowboards, skis, and bicycles. There are also base racks that you can use to mount whatever you would like to. Read the owner’s manual of your rack to ensure that you are using it properly. Otherwise, you could lose the cargo you are towing and cause serious injury.
