Sierra Xtra Topper + Yakima installed for carrying kayaks

[Finns]

I recently purchased a Sierra Xtra Topper for my new Maverick. I am using my Yakima setup that I had on my Ford Ranger and F150. It has rollers in the back and cradles in the front. I will carry (2) 14.5’ Perception Carolina’s w rudders. The Maverick should be a better platform for carrying my kayaks vs my Subaru Crosstrek. On the Subaru I am using a Thule roof rack w side loading Malone foldaway racks. I prefer the kayaks flat on the roof vs on their sides.

Nice topper (in that it sits level with the cab) I've seen too many that stick up too far.

Or this kind of thing ? But to each their own

Nah there was a guy on reddit's Maverick subreddit who bought a cheap aluminum one off of Temu? Alibaba? that was supposed to be level with the cab in the front but stuck up like an inch.

That's a good looking setup. Well done.
