Roof Rack Options...

Can those of you who have added roof racks post a bit about brand and models please?

All I have is the factory channels...Id like to start with just some feet and bars to perhaps strap fishing rod holders to for travel and eventually maybe a basket type attachement for gear and coolers etc.

There seem to be so many options so I figured those that have successfully implemented some would be the best to ask.

Any info/guidance is greatly appreciated...

Be well...

Robb

I already had a Yakima system for my Land Cruiser so I bought the feet to fit in the Ex factory rails. There are expedition type racks available but I use a utility trailer for the luggage which is much easier than throwing it on the roof.
