Roof Rack Recommendation for 2018 Ford Escape with Glass Roof and Raised Siderails
Question:
Have a 2018 Ford Escape with a moon roof and factory rails installed. What are my options for a roof rack that would carry any kind of weight. Thanks,

Helpful Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Ford Escape with the factory moon roof and raised factory side rails we have the Rhino Rack roof rack that consists of # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX100 which will work well. This rack has aero shaped crossbars which will be quieter and will minimize fuel mileage loss due to wind resistance.
I found an online copy of your owner's manual and it states that should not carry more than 45 pounds on a roof rack if you have the glass roof.
