Swagman Paramount Full-Size Trucks Tailgate Pad Review - 2016 Ford F-150- Video
Hi everyone, Aiden here at etrailer, and today we're gonna be taking a look at the Swagman Paramount tailgate pad and we're gonna see how it fits on the back of our 2016 Ford F-150. So a tailgate pad is a great way for your truck to utilize the truck bed to hold your bikes. It's an excellent alternative to a hitch on bike rack because typically these tailgate pads are a lot less expensive, so a little bit more budget friendly, but they can hold more bikes and the paramount is no different. You can hold up to seven bikes here. So if you need to get a lot to your destination, this is a good way to do it and it's gonna keep them upright so you're not just tossing them into the bed in a jumbled mess where they're gonna be running into one another and potentially getting damaged on your drive. This is gonna hold the bike upright essentially by wedging it over the tailgate. more

Thule Truck Bed Bike Racks Review - 2016 Ford F-150- Video
Today in this 2016 Ford F-150, we're going to be test-fitting the Thule Bed Rider II bike rack for truck beds, part number TH822XTR. Now, how this works is it'll actually grab your bikes by the forks, and you do have space for additional fork mounts here, should you need them. To open them up, you simply pop this loose, and you can unscrew it from both sides to gain more space to lift up and out of the way. When you're ready to go, you simply push it back down, and these are lockable, so your bikes will be secure while you travel. The bike rack itself is lockable, but I'll show that later. Let's go ahead and take the bike out, and I'll lift it up and out of the way. Go ahead and close that back up. Now, the skewers themselves are also adjustable. Slide back and forth where you need them to by loosening these two screws here and just adjusting it as needed. Also, the other lock I was talking about is on this latch here, which is essentially how this hooks into your truck bed. You lift this up, which loosens it up, and then you spin the whole thing to either tighten it or loosen it to your specifications. Now, when you're ready to go, simply push it down, lock it up, and you're ready to travel. And there you have it for the Thule Bed Rider II bed bike rack for your truck bed, part number TH822XTR on our 2016 Ford F-150. First, we'll take it on our slalom course. more
