[Mark in Baltimore]

I have a Yakima four bar, two basket, two bike tray system on my Sequoia, and use the Lowriders to attach them to the factory rack. It's a pretty serious rack that holds a ton of different things. The front basket is directly over the sunroof and is inverted to allow the sunroof to tilt up. The second basket is aft of the first and sits as it was designed to. I chose the Yakima system over the Thule because I had seen so many Thule cross bars that were sagging because they used a weaker rectangular metal, as opposed to the stronger and thicker steel pipe of the Yakima. I definitely needed to carry some loads up there without having to worry if my bars were going to sag.

Installation involves careful measuring, but, if I can do it, you can, too. I can probably carry another three bikes if I were to have two of the bike trays face backwards so that the handle bars wouldn't hit. Attaching them to the rack is as easy as tightening a wheel skewer and clicking a wheel strap; way easier than bungeeing this and padding that on a rear rack. If you want to see pics, let me know by sending a PM.
