Hey folks, I want to add a roof rack to my 2004 SMB Ford E350 Extended Body with a Voyager Fiberglass Top. I want the roof rack to 1) be a flat surface for myself and a few other people to sit on chairs to watch the sunset, have drinks, etc. 2) a place to mount some solar panels.
Right now I'm looking at a quote of $3,000 for the rack to be built by Aluminess (
http://www.aluminess.com/roof-racks/) and installed by a local dealer (with lots of SMB experience).
Does anyone know of any other options/companies/pre-built racks I should look at that might be cheaper than this $3,000 price tag? Can anyone comment on how much of that $3,000 might be recoverable when I sell my SMB?
Here's the surface I'd want put on the rack:
Here's an example of the rack Aluminess could build:
