Question:
Hello, I have a 2014 Chevy Traverse and am interested in purchasing a rooftop tent to go on top. The weight of the tent is around 150-160 lbs - but when you put me in there - a bit more. I see most have a support ladder, but I would imagine it still will support up to 400+ lbs of weight. Are there any after market rails that will allow a Traverse to handle this?

This is a really good question. So the roof rack capacities we list like for the Rhino Rack that fits your 2014 Chevy Traverse # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK297 the number is a dynamic rating meaning when the vehicle is on the road hitting bumps which will exaggerate the weight carried. This is why roof rack tent manufacturers will say that the rack the tent is used on needs to have a dynamic rating of at least 165 lbs to be able to carry the fully weight of the tent plus people.
