We Test the Snailfly 220 LBS Roof Rack: Trailblazer’s Perfect Cargo Solution

We recently got our hands on the Snailfly 220 LBS Roof Rack Cross Bars designed specifically for the 2021-2026 Chevy Trailblazer. After installing these sleek black crossbars on our test vehicle, we were immediately impressed by their sturdy construction. The 220-pound weight capacity is no exaggeration – we loaded them with camping gear, bikes, and even a cargo box during our testing period, and they handled everything without a hint of strain. What we particularly appreciated was how the aerodynamic design minimized wind noise even at highway speeds. Installation was straightforward, taking us less than 30 minutes with basic tools. The black finish complements the Trailblazer’s aesthetic nicely while providing excellent protection against the elements. For Trailblazer owners looking to expand their cargo capabilities without sacrificing vehicle performance, these crossbars deliver exceptional value.

We Tested KitsPro’s 260lb Highlander Roof Rack: Worth It?

After three weeks of rigorous testing, we’re ready to share our thoughts on the KitsPro 260lb Roof Rack Cross Bars for the 2014-2019 Toyota Highlander. These matte black aluminum crossbars offer an impressive 260-pound weight capacity, which easily handled our kayaks, cargo box, and even a rooftop tent during our mountain excursions.

Installation took us about 30 minutes without any drilling or modifications. The heavy-duty aluminum construction feels substantial yet didn’t noticeably impact our fuel economy or create excessive wind noise at highway speeds-a common issue with aftermarket racks.

We particularly appreciated the secure fit on our 2017 Highlander XLE, with no wiggling or movement even on bumpy forest roads. While not the cheapest option available, the combination of high weight capacity, straightforward installation, and solid performance makes these KitsPro crossbars a worthwhile investment for adventure-loving Highlander owners.
