If you want the low profile functionality of the overland ruff fax for 1/2 the price, you could check out the Dometic FrontRunner Slimline II. If you look at my profile photo, you’ll notice this is a pretty low profile rack. This uses all six mounting points, which makes for a more stable roof rack with a heavier capacity. This rack uses v-shaped mounting bolts that slip underneath each of the six mounting points. The bolts are heavy duty, so this rack is not going anywhere. If you plan to mount a rack on top of the Rivian cargo cross bars, keep in mind that you only have 250-lbs of capacity to work with; that included whatever rack you decide to mount on top of it. Also, you don’t want to have any space between your load and the roof glass, unless you don’t mind excessive wind buffeting.
Post that up in the pinned thread -

Helps to keep all the info together; good to have all optioned shared.
