Tonneau Cover and Ladder Rack Recommendation for 2017 Toyota Tacoma SR5 with Deck Rail System
Question:
Hi Jon! I like the cover to protect all my tools. I’m a project manager for a general contractor so it help to protect from the weather and to keep them safe. For the ladder rack, it would be for hauling wood, doors, ladders etc, but also to transport my kayaks and canoe. Some recommendations for a setup would be great!

While we do have tonneau cover and ladder rack options for your 2017 Toyota Tacoma SR5, the current tonneau cover that you have on your pickup doesn't leave any room for a ladder rack to be installed. The only kind of overhead hauling option that is compatible with your tonneau is a roof rack.
If you're willing to part with your tonneau cover I can make some recommendations for you though. Just let me know what the main purpose is of the ladder rack (whether you plan on using it for utility work, recreational activities, or both) and then what you'd like out of the tonneau cover and I'd be more than happy to recommend a setup for you.
