How to Carry Skis with a Rental Vehicle

Question:

Will this fit on either a Ford Expedition Max or Chevy Suburban rental car so I could wind up with either one to use as a temporary ski rack and if so, do I need any other items not included with the rack? Thanks.

The Yakima EasyTop Universal Fit Roof Rack # Y07418 is a universal fit so it should fit just fine on either a Ford Expedition Max or Chevy Suburban. The pad measures 37-1/4" long and it has a strap length of 86".

If this is something you plan on doing fairly often then I recommend checking out the SeaSucker Ski Carrier # 298-SK2425. These use vacuum cups to mount to the roof of virtually any vehicle and they are smaller so they can easily be stored inside the vehicle or out of the way in your garage when not in use, plus they will sit more secure on your roof.

Attached are some review videos for you to check out.
