Roof Rack Recommendation for 2017 Ford Expedition EL Platinum Carrying Roofnest Sparrow XL

Question:

I have a 2017 Ford Expedition EL Platinum with a raised roof rack. I am wanting some after market cross bars for a Roofnest Sparrow XL tent that weighs 155 pounds. Can you give me a Rec for crossbars that would work for my needs?

Helpful Expert Reply:

For your 2017 Ford Expedition with raised side rails I would recommend the Yakima Jetstream roof rack part numbers # Y00425 # Y33TR which will give you a quieter roof rack that has enough weight capacity for your tent as it has a dynamic (on the road) capacity of 165 lbs. The static (parked) capacity is not stated but based on it's dynamic capacity it would be strong enough for people in the tent.
