I could do the $550 but not sure when I can get over there to pick them up. It's about a 5 hour drive for me, but I can plan on coming Sunday. If that doesn't work then I could pay and then figure out when to pick up?
The install itself was easy. Do some measuring. Easy to find the harness under the bed. You need the right size hole saw for metal for the plug itself. Then you drill the four holes for the screws. The wiring harness just plugs in. Very simple...

My wife and I went to Walmart on Saturday. We were just buying the usual groceries - not too much extra. Curious, I went around the store to see what they were out of. I noticed the following items were hit pretty hard (some may be easily explainable - some maybe not):
Toilet Paper
Napkins...
UPDATE - I have been over 75 mph (no - I wasn't going after toilet paper) and I had some wind noise but it was very minor.
It wasn't an objectionable howl at all.
My wife didnt even notice it until I pointed it out.
I haven't fully tested the wind noise yet, but the textured rubber insert on top is supposedly designed to help. There are also strips provided to close gaps on the bottom, too. When I first installed the racks, I didn't have time to get those rubber strips put in. With that big groove in the...
This is what I got from Rack Attack:
MiscItem: Rhino - RR Tracks - RTS525
Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Leg x4
Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Base Wedge 10mm
Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Base Wedge 5mm
Rhino-Rack Vortex Bar Black 59 inch
I think the total price was actually $587.60
The stock system from Rhino...
Finally got a chance to get these racks on.
These Rhino racks are very well designed. I used plusnut fasteners rather than the supplied poprivets. I really don't think the poprivets could tighten it down well enough since you are compressing some grey foam strips.
I had them substitute 59" bars...
Mine are the "Swing Case" brand but I suspect the Ford version may be made by Swing Case since they look so similar. After I installed the swing cases, I saw that I would have enough room below the bracket to install the 12v. So it is not exactly where most folks have theirs. The next chance...
They don't show them on their website so I believe I first emailed the Rhinorack link to Rack Attack and inquired. I've dealt with Rack Attack many times and they are my 'go to'. Excellent service, support, AND prices. They got back to me and hooked me up.
With their free shipping, I paid...
The Rhinorack website has an installation video.
Note that the the'groove' in the roof that has the plastic strip in it has a slight curve to it. The tracks that I received are curved to match that. So I am pretty stoked about the thought that went into this design.
So far, no experience. But I am excited to have the Rhinorack ready to go on my Super Crew.

It looks like an excellent, very clean design. I have used the Yakima Tracks on my...
