Question:
I have a 2021 Venza XLE with low side rails with pop outs to attach crossbars. I want to haul a lightweight kayak. What would be my best option?

Expert Reply:
While I cannot find anyone who makes a roof rack specific to your 2021 Toyota Venza XLE having the side rails we do have the SeaSucker Ridge Ready Monkey Bars Roof Rack # SEA66VR. This universal rack uses vacuum cups to attach to the roof. For a rack to secure your kayak there are several options. Personally I prefer the Thule Hullavator # TH898 as it allows you to load the kayak onto the rack and then raise onto the roof. If you have no problem lifting the Kayak then you could look at a more conservative rack our etrailer # e98878.

I first need to get crossbars I believe? There are pop out spots on the side rails that I believe the crossbars will attach to. I see crossbars out there but I am unsure as to what weight capacity and other details I need to to be looking for. I will probably never haul anything very heavy, I am 66 and able to lift stuff up I will definitely look into lift assist!
