Your 2011 Ford Transit Connect has fixed points on the roof, so you have plenty of roof rack options. I recommend the 2011 Ford Transit Connect Roof Rack by Thule. It consists of the following;

Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 47" Long - Qty 2, part # TH711220
Rapid Podium Feet for Thule Crossbars - Fixed Point - Qty 4, part # TH460R
Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet - 3021, part # THKIT3021
Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Qty 4, part # TH450400

This rack's weight limit is 165lbs. It has elliptical shaped bars that help with wind noise and fuel efficiency. It works with most roof rack accessories that clamp to the crossbars. I included the Thule One-Key System locks so you can secure this rack to your vehicle. With this rack, you can carry a roof top cargo basket, such as the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs, part # TH859XT. This is a versatile roof top basket. You can attach other roof rack accessories directly to the basket, so you can carry bikes, skis, etc. You can also carry items inside the basket.
