Can I rent your R-Class roof rack? (Boston/Southern NH)
Just a feeler: I'm taking a vacation the last week of August. I may want to bring our kayak but haven't invested in a roof rack (mainly because we'll use it so infrequently).
Anyone around Boston/Nashua willing to rent out their roof rack for a week? I don't need attachments, just the basic bars.

Firming up plans this week. It looks like I may need to rent someones rack. I'm not wild about using the foam cushion things on the roof.

I ended up buying a Thule rack. I could get the MB rack online for $300. I found the components for the Thule rack on Amazon for around $260. Unfortunately I ordered the wrong Podium feet and had to return them and buy the correct ones locally. Because of my mistake, I ended up spending a little under $300.
