Yes, the Rhino-Rack Nautic Roof Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # RR570 will work well in hauling your 14 foot canoe and it is what I recommend. You will want to make sure you have a compatible roof rack on your 2019 Toyota Tacoma. It requires crossbars that are no wider than 3-7/8" and no taller than 1-3/8". If you do not have crossbars running left to right that fit these requirements then you will need a new setup.

-If you have a bare naked roof with no rails or bars then I would look into Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack Vortex Aero Black # RR42XR. This will attach to the door jams on your truck.

-If your truck has factory rails running front to back then I would go with Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars Silver # TH711400 with the necessary Feet # TH710401. This clamps around the factory rails on your truck.

I attached a couple demonstration videos for you to check out.
