Question:
I’m looking for a roof rack for 2022 Toyota RAV4 LE to carry a 80 pound canoe. My RAV4 has a bare roof, produced in Canada. Which rack is best for my situation? Ideally, quiet and aerodynamic, but interfacing well with RAV4 is most important. Please send me recommendations. Thank you!

Hey Macy, for your 2022 Toyota RAV4 with a naked roof I really like the Thule WingBar Evo part # TH27FA as it as quiet of a roof rack you can get due to it's advanced aero shaped bars plus it has more than enough weight capacity.
Then for a kayak carrier the LockRack carrier # LR24VR would be a great option that can fold down when not in use for better aerodynamics, has the needed weight capacity and is easy to use.
