Expert Reply:
The longest crossbars any of our manufacturers recommend with your vehicle are 53 inches long. It's the Thule WingBar Evo system with the bars, # TH711400 for silver or # TH711420 for black, the foot pack # TH460R, and fit kit, # THKIT3118.
If you want longer bars you can use the same feet and fit kit except substitute the WingBars for the 79 inch ProBars, # TH713700. This gives you the space you're looking for but is a really long crossbar for your vehicle. It may even stick out past the side mirrors.
For a canoe carrier I recommend Thule Portage Canoe Carrier # TH819. These universal mount gunwale brackets provide a simple solution for transporting a canoe on your roof rack crossbars.
