Base Rack System Reviews

The install instructions are not written as clearly as they should be and it would have been great/time-saving to have the necessary measurements for the vehicle I installed it on. However, with some minor trial and error work I got it on. I really dig how it looks and it does the job perfectly. No complaints whatsoever since I installed it. Great bang for the buck and it does not look cheap like other roof racks by different companies that I have seen out there. No buyer's remorse and I love it more every time i look at it and use it.

I'm very pleased with the Thule roof rack. Ford doesn't make a roof rack for the Freestyle, so it was difficult to find a roof rack that would fit my vehicle. I researched everywhere, and once I found that the Thule, Yakima, and Westin systems would all work, but I chose the Thule because of the options it has for future purchases (bike rack, snow skiis, kayak, etc.) I also found that Auto Anything had the cheapest price compared to anyone else online or in a store for either of the three systems. I found that the next lowest price was $18 more, and with purchasing online, I didn't have to pay sales tax like I would in the store. I'd do business with them again.

i was looking for a solution to transport two kayaks and two mountain bikes on my toyota tacoma...at the same time. i also need something to haul lumber and sundry items from the hardware store. initially i was looking into buying a cap for the bed; however, that would have started @ $1500 and wouldn't provide any convenience should i want to just use the bed. this fits my needs, looks great, and at a fraction of what a cap would have cost. installation wasn't as easy as advertised so i don't know how often i'll take the stands off the bed, but the adjustable rails can go on and off in a snap. what's more, AutoAnything had it on sale and i got it for $496 AND delivered for free; it arrived two days after i bought it online...impressive.

Love the look, made very well and sturdy. It took less than 3 hours to install going at an easy pace. Unfortunately, my ski racks would not fit around the 2 inch bars. I had alot of difficulty and extra expense to find a standard rack with large enough attachments to fit on this rack. MBRP should make or have an attached narrow standard rack to fit this so that most accessories can attach easily. Over all, I would recommend this Rack to other Jeep owners.
