Question:
Hi there, I have a 2019 VW jetta and I am looking for an affordable roof rack system capable of carrying a canoe. I am currently look at this model: Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Bar - Aero Roof Rack - 2019 Volkswagen Jetta With this system I can tie down to bow and stern of the canoe to the front and back of my car but I am looking for your opinion as you deal with the products frequently. Is there a system you would recommend? Looking the most affordable option!

Expert Reply:
The Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System you were looking at that uses 49" Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2, Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRRLKVA, and Fit Kit # DK424 is currently the cost effective roof rack option for your 2019 Volkswagen Jetta and would do a great job at carrying a canoe.
For a cost effective canoe carrier I recommend the Malone Canoe Carrier with Tie-Downs - Foam Block Style - 6" Long # MPG156 which uses foam blocks that go over your crossbars to protect the canoe, and the included tie-downs will keep it secure to your Jetta.
I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
