Wow, roof rack looks even higher than mine! What's she stand, 10'6"? Mine's 10' exact. You'll quickly discover that most branches on trails are about 9'6" AGL.

Yeah, your rack is what I originally wanted when I had Boulder Offroad order it. Instead I got a standard Aluminess rack with no paint or mounts and they fab their own custom mounts and powder coat the finished product. Honestly I thought it looked ridiculous when I went to pick it up.I just want a place for a couple solar panels...getting tired of everybody asking what that silly roof rack is for. It's growing on me though..I guess

The good news is, your van roof is protected from meteorites.

Personally, I think if the roof rack was only as wide as the very top of the roof, that would look far stranger. Embrace the rack!

They're ProComp wheels. They were on the van when I bought it.
