Hello. I'm super excited to have just gotten a '20 Ranger XLT. It's awesome!
Needed some feedback from the experts:
I have a 18'-6" canoe (longer than most, but light weight) and was looking at getting one of those exteneded over the cab ladder racks. That will be the main thing I haul. Also seems like you can get one of those for around $500 vs. some of the Yakima Bed Racks for double the price (I like the extended over the cab peiece for the third tiedown). While I'm sure there is a quality differance, I only need it for this purpose. I won't be taking it on and off (expect for the offseason).
Something like this:

My canoe is pretty fragile, so I like through through of having multiple tie downs, plus I'm always nervious of it coming off on the highway. I used to carry the canoe on a car, which wasn't very easy.
Looking through the forum, I couldnt' find any posts on these sytle of racks. Any thoughts, recommondations, etc.
Thanks all!
