Will the new longer rear blade allow a crossbar to clear the rear of a maxxair fan in the farthest back position on an extended van? And if so, any way to retrofit just the rear blade onto the old rack?
I having trouble finding a dealership that will sell at MSRP. Were you able to get your van at a fair price? If anyone knows of a dealer that sells at MSRP, please list it!
We did design the rack with aerodynamics in mind. The flush mount solar panel brackets we make also aid in keeping the wind profile down. I think tires hurt more than a rack. From my experience.
Love the pseudo-Pollack backdrop.
Thanks! It's one of Matt's bicycle paintings from art school!
Appreciate what the professor is done The additional back dimension will improve loading a kayak.
That’s right

All the holes for towers line right up. I’d have to measure distance from last tower mounting point. Next time I’m in CAD I’ll try it out.
@@AVCRIG thank you.
Nice, now all I need is Ford to deliver our van...

@@roseboudreaux4645 I got it at MSRP at Gullo in Conroe Texas but they told me upfront. I’ll have to wait a year.
Seriously. I had 6 canceled last year.
@@AVCRIG oh, man don’t tell me that I would seriously be pissed
@@scottvallie4495 yep. Hard to run a business converting vans without vans…
Nice! I checked the link and the product page has the 148 extended roof rack as 140" long. Is that the dimension or 148" as you mention here?
148”. Probably outdated copy on the product. Thanks for the heads up. I pulled all these dimensions from the design files.
I’m worried about reducing the gas mileage with a roof rack, solar panels and awning. Is that a valid concern?
