Question:
Want to fit this on a 2026 toyota tacoma 6ft bed. What is the width of the cross bars end to end? Description says this rack is black powder coated. Picture shows bare metal. Confirm color please?

Hey Hunter, thanks for reaching out. The load bars on the Malone # MAL73HR truck rack are 72" long. They use a standard T-slot profile, so they'll work with a wide variety of kayak carriers, bike racks, cargo baskets, and other accessories.
The # MAL73HR is a silver powder coated aluminum. I'm not sure why our descriptions says black, but that is inaccurate. I'll work on getting that edited.
That said, it will be a good fit for your 2026 Tacoma. It'll fit most any full-size and mid-size pickup bed.
What will you be using the rack for?
