    Anyone have a Sherpa Needle roof rack ? Likes ? Dislikes ? I have no need for a full roof rack so I was looking at the Needle which is $500.00 cheaper than their full rack, the Crestone .
    Thanks in advance.

    I installed the Sherpa Needle on my Limited. The installation was pretty straight forward. The installation sheet is pretty basic, but they have a pretty good YouTube video detailing the install. My only "issue" was horrible wind noise when driving between 63-66MPH. The solution was easy though - I just adjusted the 1st rail backwards a few inches and the noise disappeared. Hope this helps.

    Needle on 2024 Limited. Easy install. For the most part, it's just for looks.

    I have the Crestone currently, and I've never cared for the looks, I got it because for a time I was using all the space up there I could get. I plan to replace it with a Needle once I free up some cash for the difference. If anyone in Washington state wants a gently used Crestone, buy a Needle for way less and we can swap parts. :evil::D Come to think of it, I think I'll make a thread offering that trade. haha
