Don't get me wrong the rack is bad ass! The center span mounting not so much! If they offered what K9 does I would have one on my rig as we speak!

Just messing with you... I did put thought into the rails. But after doing the research and checking the weight limits on them, 300lbs static is more than enough for most. It'll probably never see anymore than 100 lbs to be honest with you...

Yeah it is probably the best strap on rack I have seen. Especially since it doesn't use the cross members. It should be though. It isn't cheap in comparison to other strap on racks.

One thing I like about this and my front runner is we can buy different mounts to fit another vehicle down the road if we need to.

I have the Gobi Stealth and ladder on my Inferno and probably would not trade it for the Rhino. But I do like how minimal that thing looks on your truck. I don't feel the weight of the Gobi as much as I do feel the drag it creates and the minor hit my gas mileage takes for it. I wonder if this will create as much drag as a full rack unloaded?

spencenasty hit it on the head. It's an inside joke about TRD 4Runner specific parts and the thread title.

Here's a little video of some guys playing in sand. This is the first time I saw the rhinorack which got me looking at them.

Now that you've told us all about the rack, can we get some info on your endorsement deal?

Lol...no endorsement. I know there will be a few guys reading this questioning the "strap on rack" integrity to carry heavy loads. So as a member of this site and OP of the thread, I feel obligated to those out there that might want be interested in this system. With that said, here are 2 guys reviewing it on top of the pioneer rack at the sema show. I'm sure they each come in at around 200lbs...

looks like they pretty much copied K9 and Front Runner. The planks go parallel to the vehicle like the K9 and the rail options are just like Front Runner. What parts are nylon? I know my Front Runner is all metal. I am assuming it is the corner pieces? Just curious.
