Default Roof racks

Does anyone have any roof racks on their trucks? If so post the pics, I've been thinking about some but I haven't seen any other than cheap straight bar kinds. I'd like to see them to get some ideas

I think you are thinking of more of a roof basket than a roof rack.

I feel like the baskets are just too much. I want bars but I want them to look more stock than like Yakima or something like that if you get what I mean

Some baskets look nice. It depends on the purpose and what you are looking to place in them! I would check out your local fab shops to see if someone would be able to build one to your standards and monies.

Here are a few examples.

I read somewhere someone took a factory expedition and modified it to work on our roof... I think I may go this route.
