Best Value Roof Rack and Surfboard Carrier for 2020 Toyota 4Runner with Factory Raised Rails
Question:
I'm looking for a low cost solution for both a roof rack and surfboard carrier. What do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
The best option for a cost effective roof rack for your 2020 Toyota 4Runner is the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG215. This complete roof rack comes with the two aluminum aero crossbars, four towers, installation tool and it even comes with locks and keys as well. I actually had the chance to install this roof rack and it only took me about 15 to 20 minutes to unbox, slide the towers on the bars, position them on the rails and tighten them down. You can't beat the value and functionality offered in this roof rack.
For a really simple and cost effective way to secure your surfboard to your roof rack, take a look at the Malone Rack Pads for Crossbars # MPG313. These offer a thick layer of padding between your crossbars and surfboard, helping to protect the finish on both. To tie down your board, you can use the Malone Cam Buckle Load Straps with Buckle Protectors, available in the following lengths:
# MPG307-9 - 9 ft long
# MPG307-12 - 12 ft long
# MPG307-15 - 15 ft long
# MPG307-18 - 18 ft long
