Recommended Roof Rack for a 2019 Ford Escape w/ a Naked Roof
Question:
I have a 2019 Ford Escape that does not have roof rails but does have a plastic trim piece that fits in the groove where roof rails could be installed. What options do I have for purchasing roof rails and cross bars for this escape. Thank you

Expert Reply:
Your 2019 Ford Escape has what we call a naked roof and there are a couple of options for roof racks depending on whether or not you want the crossbars to extend past the legs. I have listed both options below:
Flush Mount Stops at Legs
Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black item # RR49QR
Extends Past Legs
Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 54" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA137B-2
Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Qty 4 item # RRRLKVA
Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs - Naked Roof item # DK375
These aero bar roof rack systems each have a 165 lbs capacity. The included locks will prevent theft and the rubberized vortex strips in the top channels dramatically reduce drag and wind noise. These install without drilling.
