What's going on, everybody Adam here with etrailer. Today, we have a 2017 Toyota RAV4, and we're gonna be taking a look at the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Style Rack. We just threw a couple of different accessories we had here in the shop just to show you exactly how much stuff you can get up on there. We have a lot more room, and you don't really have to put the kayak here or here, or the bike rack over there. There really is a lot of different types of slots and bars, so you can really make it yours. What we're gonna do now is take everything off so we can get a closer look at the platform itself and go over some specs. more

What's going on, everybody Adam here with etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Rhino-Rack vortex Aero crossbar roof rack system on our 2017 Toyota RAV4.

But if you're just looking to get some bikes up on here so you don't have to add anything to the back. If you want to get a cargo carrier but you don't like how much distance it adds to the back and go ahead and get a basket or a box for those trips you might hit a little bit of grosser weather. more
