not at all. those pallets don't weigh much at all and i guarantee those boxes do not weigh anywhere near as much as all the plywood on the jetta.
Certainly not as heavy as all the plywood on the Jetta ... I didn't realize we were making comparisons here. I was thinking the pallets alone should have put some dent in the roof.

That car is overloaded. It looks like the tires are rubbing the fenders.

From the looks of the rest of the car, I dont think a few more dents would matter

By any means, not light...certainly not the 100lb weight limit designated by most roof rack mfr's of this day.

I think it's a photochop. The shadow of the huge box on top of the car doesn't look large enough.
