a few years ago, I read an article about SUVs' cargo capacity and load rating. Even though the vehicles are quite large, they don't generally have much of a load capacity. If every seat was occupied by a 175lb passenger and the gas tank was full, the load rating would be exceeded with minimal cargo.
When people have to put stuff in the cargo box way up top, they probably have already exceeded the load rating, and are now increasing the load AND making it as top-heavy as possible.
