Are There Any Roof Rack Options Available To Mount A Rooftop Tent On A 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan
Question:
Hey Etrailer team. I have a 2015 dodge caravan. It does not have a roof rack but I have a 195lb roof top tent to put on the roof. Do you have any recommendations on a rack? I am ok with either the drip rail clamp style or even permanently mounting bases to the roof. Thanks for your time

Expert Reply:
We unfortunately do not currently have any roof rack options available for a 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan so the only option we currently have for you to haul around your roof top tent would be to use a trailer like the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129. This would allow you to haul the tent as well as many other accessories.
This would require that your van has a trailer hitch and 4-pole wire harness. If you don't have these then you can use the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98854 and T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118534.
