Cost aside is the Expedition Roof Rack (the G4 one) the best one for the RRS for general 4wd stuff - spare wheel carrying etc etc?

The expo rack is small, yes you can get a spare wheel and tyre on it and a few extras but not a huge amount. Regards fitting - you have 2 options. The best way is to get the roof rails for the RRS and then fitting and removing is easy. The second option is to use the fittings provided with the rack - not nearly as good and a bit of a hassle to revove etc.

Had one fitted 4 weeks ago, not huge but handy. No real wind noise when tested back in the UK. Knocks the mpg down 3-4 mpg.

Roof rails make attaching the rack a lot easier. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
