Question:
My wife and I are in our 60s and we will be towing a 2013 Ford Fusion behind our class A motor home, we would like to take our 2 kayaks with us. Do you have a way to carry 2 kayaks on our fusion ? There is no luggage rack on the car. Please help

Expert Reply:
To carry the kayaks on the roof of your 2013 Ford Fusion you will need to install a roof rack. The most cost effective option is from Rhino-Rack using the following parts:
Crossbars # RRVA126B-2
Feet # RRRLKVA
Custom clamp kit # DK358
Then for a carrier that can handle both kayaks I recommend using # S512 with Expansion arm # RRS512X. This set up will have a capacity of 99 pounds. I have included a link to a video review of the carrier for you.
