Roof Rack opinions

[A_HuL]

i am trying to find a roof rack and dont want to spend $1300 for a Gobi, i will not be toting heavy things often unless for trips, I like the Baja Rack but its almost a little too expensive, any other ideas, pictures or links would be great as well, thanks

These bolt on to your factory rack - Rola Rack

Yakima LoadWarrior or MegaWarrior

Thule MOAB

Surco

Bajarack Mule (cheaper Bajarack that attaches to factory rack)

Full replacement
AFRICAN Outback Roof Rack - I think you'll have to email Slee off road for info about this one

There's also the Perkin's Performance rack but it's about the same price as the Gobi.

Got into a pinch getting ready for a road trip last week when we figured we had too much luggage and not enough space. Since I didn't intend to make a rack a permanent add-on to the truck I was looking for the low-cost option. Bought the Rola that gaterose linked for $220 from a topper-shop in Denver and it worked out just fine and looks good enough I think I'll leave it on. If you are looking for a simple basket setup I don't think you can beat the Rola for price/value.

Recently bought a ROLA rack with ext from redtrailer.com. Rack alone was $170 (Free shipping over 200). Heard of issues of rusting, so I siliconed all the joints and all gaps in the welds. I also bought a sweet low profile adapter from this guy on toyota120.com for 75 - eliminates OEM crossbar and sits just above the roof. Here's a pic I took just after install (not great quality shot). Very happy with my purchase and the final product.
