Helpful Expert Reply:

If your 2018 Ford Escape has a naked roof without any rails you would want the Wingbar EVO roof rack part numbers # TH711420, # TH710501, # TH145192 or if you have raised rails you would want the part numbers # TH711420, # TH710401. Both of these racks have 53 inch long crossbars and were tested on your vehicle with the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 so we know it will work great. This is the quietest roof rack and also most well made so it will work really well.
