I am waiting for my Gobi rack to get here in the mail any day now. After searching all over for options the Gobi really did it for me. They are also running a special on if you buy a rack you get a free accessory free until the holidays I believe. I was able to get a second ladder at no cost. Saved me almost 200 bucks.

The things that sold it for me was I can still remove my freedom panels upfront without taking off the roof rack or doing some kind of flip to it. I can mount my hi-lift, axe, and shovel with the provided locking tie downs. I was able to get the optional mount for my spare to go up top. It comes standard with tabs to mount four lights in the front above the windshield and two in the back over the tailgate area. They were very friendly and added a tab for a CB antenna where I wanted at no extra cost. Plus it will also fit other manufacturers awning systems.

High quality, heavy duty, covers what I was looking for, and good customer service. I mean what more could you ask for really?

I will post pictures when I get it on.

I get a ton of compliments on the ARB Awning. Gobi is more expensive but worth EVERY penny

I went with Wild Boar. Love it and no issues Top rack folds up with just two knobs so you can open tops etc with ease. Strong design and super easy to install.
