I looked at the cheaper alternatives but I didn't like the hardware, spent an extra $150 for a Thule Canyon and happy with it. Little bit of wind noise loaded and barely noticeable otherwise. I'll take it off for winter of course.
Very much allowed me to have that extra room inside the truck on last camping excursion. Put the tables and chairs up there, BBQ etc. so I could stuff two bikes inside along with all my crap! The rack is very sturdy, I have 4 OEM roof rails up there but the rack mounts to 2 of course. I'd say take a good look at the cheaper ones at your local retailer before you decide.
Took these pics for my brother because he didn't think I could fit all my stuff LoL
