Is this correct? or is it supposed to be 20"? I thought the length of our Xs was ~20-21'? So the rack runs the entire length of the vehicle? I am sure the pics will make it clear to me.

It is a 20" extension!(funny)I looks good but a little high with the Thule load bars.It is ashame that I couldn't use the oem bars for it.What a bad design,I don't know what Ford was thinking.Joe M.

The only reasonable conclusion would be to keep them fitting under garage doors. But it still doesn't make it right.

Did you ever take a picture of your installed roof rack? I went to the link to your pictures from your first post, but none of them show the rack. I would like to see how it looks if you wouldn't mind.
I will try to get on it ASAP.It is a nice product for the price.I wish I could have used the OEM cross bars to keep the height & cost down a bit. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img]

We don't mean to be hounding you Joe,just interested in what the Proline looks like in real time on an Excursion [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] , CHPMustang is correct, nobody means to be hounding you. I just scanned through a bunch of posts and saw this one and was interested. I was kind of...unfulfilled by not seeing the end product. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]
Kathy actually likes the look of lifts, big tires, etc., and the rack interests her. The only question she had was - can I still park in the parking garages when I take the occaisional trip to town? When I said I doubted it, she said "OK, I still like that stuff." [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] She's a keeper.

My SD with a Con Ferr roof rack will not fit in any parking garage I have come across. Not even a close fit!!
