Question:

I have a 2020 Ford Escape and it doesn't have anything on top. The roof is naked I guess. I'd like to put some clothes on it with a roof rack. What is the best one for my Escape? I'd like something that's nice and going to last. Thanks!

Expert Reply:

The best roof rack for your 2020 Ford Escape is from Yakima because it will give your Escape a roof rack that is strong (165 lb weight capacity), durable (all parts have a lifetime warranty), quiet and looks sleek.

The roof rack for your '20 Escape is made up of:

- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426 (Black)
- BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y28TR
- BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima Roof Rack # Y06137 and # Y06152
- Same Key System Lock Cores (Optional) # Y07204

The aero shape of the JetStream crossbars, along with their built-in WindRidges, ensure the roof rack minimizes the wind noise that other types of crossbars can create, so you can drive your 2020 Ford Escape in peace with this rack on. The crossbars are 60 inches so you have plenty of space to mount any accessory, and have T-slots which allow you to use channel-mounted accessories. These T-slots have rubber "SmartFill" strips in them which make them easy to use; unlike other bars you are not going to have to cut the channel's strips to mount accessories, you can simply push the strips in to use the T-slots.

I do recommend adding the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) locks # Y07204 to lock the rack and help protect your investment; I have added links to video reviews for you to take a look at as well.
