Truck-cap solutions: a well-planned roof rack system means more fishing with less fussing
Article Abstract:
A useful set-up for fishers is a four-wheel-drive pickup truck outfitted with a bed cap and a rack system. This allows fishers to protect their equipment and haul a boat. Aluminum racks cost about $500 and fiberglass caps cost about $850, but fiberglass caps have better resale value.
