Most Popular Work and Recreation for 2017 Toyota Tacoma

It did exactly what I needed and envisioned it would

The rack is great. Simple to install, extremely sturdy & very well designed. I drove it to Cars & Coffee yesterday & someone asked me what I needed to haul or if I merely installed them "because they look cool." The young lady, Janeth, that helped me was really great! Smart, polite, patient, & above all... knowledgeable about product. I would suggest selling the rack specific for Retrax bed cover. The amount of hardware left over when you add the adapter kit to the standard rack seems really excessive. Rather than be $169 add, it should be a deduct of at least that much.

The truck racks work great, I was thinking my 17 foot canoe was too long to haul on the Tacoma until I installed these. - thanks

directions were correct, i had two of these and their workhorses,

Excellent rack. It took time to assemble but was pretty easy to do- especially with the help of on-line videos. Also, excellent customer service- item was back ordered and we received regular updates on expected delivery date. We bought the rack for our 2017 Toyota Tacoma and are extremely happy with it.

The rack arrived fast in three separate boxes (base,Tacoma kit, and crossbars). The box with the cross bars was a little dinged up, but everything inside was fine. Items were packaged very nice and organized. Seeing it up wasn't too bad. I took care of the Tacoma adapter one evening and the rest the following evening. The only tricky part was getting the cross bars aligned and attached. That part would definitely be easier with an extra set of hands or clamps. And then getting the screws in closest to the post was a bit of a bear. I'm sure there are more mechanically inclined people who would have gotten it 1,2,3. Putting the Tacoma kit on was SUPER EASY courtey of watching the instructional video a couple of times! Such a fine feature on this site! Thank you for that! I also needed to go over which base went where. There was a small illustration that showed which one sent where. Only to a minute to figure out out, but maybe labeling each one and having a diagram in the instructions would facilitate that part. Overall, not a tricky installation by any means. And they look GREAT!!! Love the powder coat paint and the style! I'm really happy with them!

First let me say I’m perfectly satisfied with these racks. They have only been installed a few days so I have not had a chance to load them up yet, but I’m confident they will work as advertised as they seem very sturdy and well built. That said, here is a listing of a few issues I have which prevent me from giving this system a 5 Rating. - Installation was fairly straight forward however parts did not completely match the instructions (attached). The Modular Clamp, item Q, differed from what is depicted in the instruction (see photos of actual part). The Clamps provided have T shaped feature which slides in the track of the Toyota track bed. This is actually a good making the installation more secure without the need for additional parts. - The threaded hole in Modular Clamp for Bolt O, however, was partially filled with the coating material which made it difficult to install the bolts. I mounted the clamps in a vice to get the necessary leverage to initially screw in the bolts. This made final installation easier and by using Loc-Tite (as recommended) , I’m not concerned with the bolts backing off. - My installation did not involve working around a tool box, however, that portion of the instructions was not very clear in my opinion. Also, Part V, Clamp Foot, was NOT included in my parts package. And since my Modular Clamps (Q) differ from what is shown in the instructions, not sure how they would work for the tool box configuration. - Both the instructions and the Video Review depict the Crossbars (F) with notches in the upper and lower tracks to facilitate installation of the corner braces and Crossbar Tie Downs/Load Stops. Neither of my Crossbars have the notches machined in. In the case of the corner braces, this means they need to be installed on the cross bar before installing the uprights

Life is busy and I finally got my racks installed. They are perfect for what I need. I own a small construction company and I drive a 2012 Tacoma with a 6' bed (side rails, etc). I was concerned that the side rails would not work with the rack or there would be a shipping or part issue - I was wrong! The design is fantastic, light, and able to carry1k pounds. The Tacoma bed design means that my racks are only about 5'4" apart. I was hoping for a greater distance apart, but this will work fine. I will need to order the roof cantilever portion if I'm hoping to carry small trim pieces without additional support for the material. Thank you to Andrew (Andy) for the support and helping me to know that I was getting the correct rack for my truck.

Made to clamp easily to a Tacoma. Exactly what I needed.

The rack is exactly as described. Very sturdy and looks great on the Tacoma...it will haul canoes for many trips to come!

Item arrived with scratches which was an issue mentioned in other reviews for this rack. So, I was not surprised to find a few when I started assembly which was pretty straight forward and took about an hour. This unit attaches to the bed of my 2017 Tacoma perfectly with the included extra set of rail clamps. Excellent quality, sturdy and looks good, just what I was looking for. I would recommend this product to others just be prepared for some minor scuffs and scratches, otherwise I’d have given it 5 stars.

I received my Thule TracRac TracONE ladder rack promptly. It is very nice and installed quite easily into the bed track of my 2020 Tacoma. Hats off to etrailer - they're great. However I would make the following product recommendations to Thule for this rack: 1. There realy need to be tie cleats on the vertical supports on this rack. Cleats would make it so much easier to secure heavy loads. 2. They should offer a accessory piece which provides a flush surface to the tops of the C-clamps that mount into the bed rack. This would make it much easier to mount a tool box over the TracRack mounts and snug the tool box up as far to the front of the bed as possible - leaving more cargo room in the bed. As it is, I either have to fabricate something to do this, or mount the tool box behind the TracRac mounts - needlessly consuming valuable bed space. Thanks etrailer!

The rack is great. I have added kayak and paddle holders to it. Rotopax cans and just recently added Roam case mounts to it. All bolted up with no problems and the racks adjustability made it even easier. No complaints 1 year in. Finish has no defects. Had held up to light off road use.

Works seamlessly with the retrax rollup cover and not too hard to install. Adjusting the height takes a little bit of work but that is only done on a very limited basis. Allows me to carry my kayaks, a cargo box if I need extra space or paddles & fishing rods so they don't get damaged by closing the tailgate on them.

Fantastic experience from ordering to receiving my new Thule Trac Rac system. My package was delivered quickly and without any damage. The installation instructions were clear and simple to follow. I’m very happy with my new rack system

Rack has been stable with a 250# RoofNest tent installed.

Excellent customer service and excellent product. I have a 2009 Toyota Tacoma with factory installed composite bed and deck rail system. The ladder rack came with a kit for the deck rail system. We put t together and installed it in less than 2 hours. It looks great and is very functional for carrying all my ladders (24 ft extension ladder, and a 6 and 8 ft ladder) I would highly recommend e-trailer.

The Thule TracRac is well designed and assembly was straight forward. My only complaint is it sits about 6" above the cab on my 2005 Tacoma. I am going to take it off and cut 4" off the uprights. This will necessitate retapping the aluminum extrusions, no big deal.

The rack is great!! Looks awesome and very functional. Great for carrying 2 x lumber, wish it had rings on the posts for easier securing. I would give it 5 stars or at least 4.5, if not for the slight mounting issue. The bases that sit on top of the bed are not at the proper angle causing the arms, the sections between the base and the top cross pieces, to be leaning in slightly. The cross pieces then do not fit exactly, they can be fastened on but once tightened down, the cross pieces have a bow. I lessened the bow by adding shims to the underside of the cross pieces but I had to get longer fastening bolts. Overall great product.

Great product easy installation if you are on the fence to buy a rack you will not be disappointed also fast shipping Thank you etrailer.

Best rack on the market, and I’ve owned many! This is my second set of TracRac ladder rack systems. The first in 2006, and it was still going strong until I sold the truck with the rack on it, and now this one I purchased in 2022. Unfortunately, this will be my last one as it will take me into retirement, but it will live on with the new owner that buys this truck! Thank you for manufacturing such a good quality product. A+++++

Very sturdy. Great look. Worth the $ in my opinion.
