Quick bit of advice about the suction models - don't. Dude doesn't want to break down his rod and gets his new/slick Sumo Rod Rack slapped on my truck for a day of fishing on the Clearwater last week.

This guy is a guide and very experienced with roof mounted rod racks.

5 minutes later his Saracione reel and expensive european spey rod (and my rig as well) lift off my roof and go flying down the highway on their own.

Mr Sumo user has now modified his rack with a "leash" that secures the suction mount to something under the hood. A good idea - if the suction fails at least your rods won't leave the top of your rig.

My old truck had Thule racks on the shell. Tape on some pipe insulation and add a few mini-bungees and you've got a much more reliable rod rack.
