    Morning all. What kind of bed bars are these? I've been looking for a set that still allows me to use my access tonneau cover.

    I put a universal rail along the bed cap, then used Thule 430 bases and 60" bars. At times I'll have 6 bars to handle the load and whatever I'm carrying. If I were to do it again I would try and find higher bases so I can completely roll the tonanue cover up under it

    Here are some other configurations.

    Cool thanks! I've been throwing around the idea of getting a bed rack for a roof top tent. If I had to do it again I'd tell the 2005 version of myself to buy a double cab that would support a roof rack, extra room for car seats in the back etc. I wasn't thinking of the future twelve years ago.

    I hate dealing with winter 1/2 arsed.
    Right clothes, time to get things cleared up, right tools to deal with it, weather man being mildly close to accurate & I'm good. Oh, & above 0 F.
    Drafty house, snow falls such I can't clean it properly, hwy dpt over treats, under plows turning roads to slop - I dread it.
    Winter was much better in Northern VT, than in Southern CT!

    I live in Westchester where if the roads aren’t treated hours before and during a snowfall, stay at home moms spend their mornings calling the Highway department and town hall because they want to be able to drive to their yoga class/cycling class /starbucks latte in their Subaru Forester or Cadillac depending how much money their husband makes
