Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars Installation - 2019 Acura MDX

Hey, everybody Zach here at etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at the Thule EVO WingBar EVO Roof Rack system on our 2019 Acura MDX. Roof racks are a really great way to get a lot of different things on top of your roof. Whether you're looking to carry a cargo box or a roof basket to free up some space inside your vehicle on a trip, or you're looking to carry kayaks, skis and snowboards or bikes, this one's going to be a really good option because we're getting 53 inches of crossbar space. We've got a lot of distance there to get accessories on here, but we also have a 220 pound load capacity. That's pretty significant amount of weight you're putting up on top of your roof. more
