Our Review: Jeep’s Silent Rooftop Cargo Solution

We recently tested the aluminum roof rack cross bars designed for 2007-2024 Jeep Wrangler JK JL and Gladiator JT models with 4-door hard tops. Our first impression? The installation process couldn’t be simpler – we had it mounted in under 30 minutes without any drilling or modifications.

What truly impressed us was the noise level during our test drive. Unlike other roof racks we’ve tried, these cross bars created minimal wind noise even at highway speeds. The aluminum construction strikes a perfect balance between durability and weight, supporting our kayaks and cargo boxes without any concerns.

We appreciated the sleek design that complements the Jeep’s rugged aesthetic while providing practical functionality. Whether we were loading up for weekend adventures or daily commutes with extra gear, these cross bars delivered reliable performance without the annoying whistling that plagues many aftermarket racks.

We Tested Tacoma’s Top Roof Rack for All Adventures

After several months of testing the Dermon Aluminum Roof Rack Cross Bars on our 2018 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab, we’ve been thoroughly impressed with their performance. Installation was straightforward, taking us about 30 minutes with basic tools. The 165-pound weight capacity has proven more than sufficient for our adventures-we’ve loaded everything from kayaks to camping gear without any concerns.

We particularly appreciate the aerodynamic design that minimizes wind noise even at highway speeds. During our recent 500-mile road trip, we barely noticed they were installed. The black finish matches our Tacoma’s aesthetic perfectly while showing minimal wear despite exposure to various weather conditions.

For Tacoma owners looking for a reliable, no-drill solution to expand their cargo capabilities, we found these cross bars deliver exceptional value. They’ve become an essential addition to our adventure setup.
