I got SXTH ELEMENT Engineering roof rack installed. Now I've used it a few days and did some highway and street driving and even some dirt road running.
I'm ready to share some thoughts and my experience.
Previously I was rocking the Toyota roof rack. It's actually very nice, well constructed, and sturdy. BUT it was incredibly noisy, and vibrated till I thought of the noise didn't drive me mad, then certainly the violent vibration would rattle the teeth out of my head lol.
I decided to try SXTH ELEMENT. This turned to be the best move I've made with my truck so far.
SXTH ELEMENT roof rack is lighter than the Toyota and has much cooler styling. More importantly it is a much better thought out product. It has a superior design along a couple dimensions. First, the angle of the front fairing is more streamlined than the Toyota. Here's why that matters; it makes for less resistance, less noise, less vibration, and though negligible likely better gas mileage. There is also a brilliant addition of piece of rubber that perfectly seals to the roof of the truck. This removes ALL the vibration or rattling you might otherwise get.
Verdict: Dope styling, sturdy, quality feel, lightweight, vibration free, noiseless.
I get more faith in SXTH ELEMENT with every product I try.
