Roof Rack Recommendation for 2018 Ford C-Max
Question:
Hi, Our library recently purchased a 2018 Ford C-Max with no existing rails or crossbars image #1. We are planning on taking pop up tents to functions and want to know what is the best roof rack for that. Pop up tent is folded into a carrying bag and probably weighs about 50 lbs. Car does go through a car wash on a biweekly basis so we want something that is able to handle car washes. I have attached a photo to help with what our car looks like.

Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Ford C-Max with a naked roof the roof rack I recommend is the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK357 because it installs easily, gives you aero shaped bars which minimizes wind noise, and would work great for the pop up tent application you mentioned. It also would be just fine to get through a car wash.
