Expert Reply:
For your 2012 Toyota Tacoma with a naked roof and fixed mounting points for a roof rack the most affordable rack option we have is going to be the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK046. This is a high quality rack at an affordable price so it would be your best option.
Then for an economical cargo basket to fit this rack we have the Thule part # TH859XT which would be a great option. It measures 49 inches by 40 inches and is 6 inches deep.
