Kayak roof rack on truck

Sounds like a plan to me!

That should work as I have seen late model crew cab pickups like mine with those racks. Thule also makes those same type of racks. I have a USA camper rack on top of my camper shell on another older Dodge Ram. It carries many items nicely including my two different size kayaks.

I am also in the market for those roof racks for my newer dodge ram. There are many on craigs list in good condition ( a complete set) for much less money but have to be careful who you meet with.

Both Thule and Yakima are quality brands. Either one IMO.

Yeah same here as I have an F-150 on order, wished ford offered a roof rack as it was one of the first questions I asked. Good info on thread! :C

I struggled with that question myself for our 12' kayaks along with our bikes. In the end I built a trailer to tow behind the fifth. This works very well for us as we can bring either 6 kayaks or 4 kayaks and 4 bikes depending on our needs for the trip. This may be an option to look at ad well

I put a US Rack on. We are happy with it, I have had it for over 4 years now. I did not want to spend the money for it but was overruled, but now after using it this long, I would do it again.

US Rack.

It does a very good job with our 12.5' fishing kayaks.

I have an Adarac on mine.

$2500? I thought Thule was expensive at around $700 wow

If I had a travel trailer that'd work.

for anyone following along...

I contacted Thule, as Yakima had some bad reviews, they said the following would work for my 2020 crew cab f350

Not sure which kayak rack I want yet, as I just want to carry as many as possible.
