    Factory rack is good for light duty applications. If you are putting alof weight, or want to mount a variety of items on your rack, then go Prinsu.

    My truck came with the OEM rack and I use it for holding fishing rods. The only other thing I would mount up there are Traction boards. Although Prinsus are nice and well made, my use doesn't warrant spending another $650 on the Prinsu just to mount traction boards to them.


    Now if anyone wants to trade a Prinsu for my OEM rack, HMU. :D
