Roof Rack That Works With Thule SUP Taxi Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier on 2015 Ford Taurus
Question:
I am interested in the Thule TH810XT paddle board roof racks. However I need to get the cross bar roof racks for my 2015 Ford Taurus. Does Thule make ones that fit my vehicle? If not is the a quality company that does that the Thule paddle board racks will adapt to? I would prefer Thule if they make them. Also is drilling required? Thank you

There is a very high-quality roof rack that fits your 2015 Ford Taurus which will allow you to use the Thule SUP Taxi XT Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier # TH810001, though Thule does not make a rack which fits your vehicle.
Instead, I recommend the Rhino-Rack roof rack, which consists of parts # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK229.
This rack has crossbars which are 3-1/8" wide x 1-3/16" tall so you will be able to use the Thule SUP Taxi Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier # TH810001 with it. The SUP Taxi can fit a pair of boards, has telescoping cradles that allow for a perfect fit and secures your boards with steel-reinforced straps. It will mount easily to your Rhino Rack roof rack with straps that you tighten with the turn of a knob, and the Taxi comes with lock cores as an added security measure.
I've added links to video reviews of the Rhino Rack and SUP Taxi for you to check out as well.
