Roof rack Recommendation for a 2012 Hybrid Chevy Tahoe

Question

Question:

The Hybrid Tahoes do not have any roof rack. I just bought a 2012 and I need to be able to put a roof top carrier on the Hybrid a few times a year to carry luggage etc. Can this or some other model be used and how is it mounted to the Hybrid Tahoe?

For a hybrid model 2012 Chevy Tahoe, I recommend the Yakima roof rack consisting of:

Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2# Y00426
SkyLine Towers # Y53TR
Landing Pad 1 for Yakima Control Towers # Y00221
SKS Locks # Y07204

This rack has aero bars for less wind noise, a clean look, and the landing pad mounts directly to the flush mounted rails on your vehicle for a perfect fit.
