So I wanted to put my kayak up on to of the VX, but I dont have a roof rack. And no way in hell I'm paying 400 for a factory one. So I went around looking at universal ones, first to walmart, then to goodwill, then to the local non profit bicycle warehouse. And viola, I found a Thule roof rack that seems to be the rain gutter type. But it fit perfectly on the VX roof rails. And the best part is I only paid $20! So that's a win for the VX and my kayak will be at the lake tomorrow.
