We Put the Nextgen Tucson Roof Rack to the Ultimate Test
After three weeks of pushing the Nextgen Roof Rack Cross Bars to their limits, we're honestly impressed. Installed on our 2023 Tucson Hybrid Limited, these crossbars handled everything from our family's overpacked luggage to a pair of kayaks during our coastal weekend getaway.
The lockable mechanism gave us peace of mind when parking in unfamiliar areas, and we noticed minimal wind noise even at highway speeds. Installation took us about 20 minutes without any specialized tools, though the instructions could be clearer on torque specifications.
We particularly appreciated how the bars maintained their integrity during a sudden downpour - no water infiltration into our rooftop cargo box. The weight capacity easily accommodated our gear, and the aerodynamic design seems to have minimal impact on our fuel economy.

After weeks of testing various roof racks for the newest Jeep Grand Cherokee models, we've finally found a standout option. These aluminum cross bars, rated for an impressive 300-pound capacity, fit perfectly on both the 2021-2026 Grand Cherokee L 3-Row and the 2022-2026 Cherokee WL 2-Row models.
What impressed us most was the versatility. We loaded everything from camping gear to kayaks during our mountain weekend, and the lockable design gave us peace of mind when parking at trailheads. Installation took us about 20 minutes with no drilling required.
The aerodynamic profile kept wind noise minimal, even at highway speeds, and we noticed only a slight decrease in fuel economy - about 1 MPG less than our usual average. The aluminum construction strikes a nice balance between durability and weight, making these bars easy to handle during setup.

We recently put the ARKSEN 64"x23"x6" Skinny Roof Rack through its paces on a weekend camping trip, and we're thoroughly impressed with its performance. The slim profile lives up to its "skinny" name without compromising on utility. Despite its compact 6-inch height, we managed to secure all our camping gear with plenty of room to spare.
What caught our attention was the rack's sturdy construction. Even on bumpy back roads, our equipment stayed firmly in place thanks to the heavy-duty steel frame. The weather-resistant coating proved its worth when we encountered unexpected rain - our gear remained completely dry underneath our tarp.
Installation was straightforward on our SUV, taking us less than 30 minutes with basic tools. If you're looking for extra cargo space without the bulkiness of traditional carriers, this ARKSEN model deserves our recommendation.
