    Need help with figuring out what roof rack to buy! Would like to transport camping cargo for family of 4. What do I need? I'm so confused!

    Thanks!

    I use a Yakima. Goes on easy and is easy to remove! It is lockable. I have a long narrow tote box by Yakima. Great for gear. I went long a narrow so that I can take my kayak on the other side. I have had it for three seasons. The same rack fits my 2006 Civic as well! Hal

    Ended up buying a Thule system, found for around $270. I got the base roof rack system, once it arrives I will see how easy the installation is!!! I'm excited to receive it and to have found a really nice rack system for a great price.
