Which stubby antennas are you guys going with?

Cravenspeed has a nice one. That's the only one I've used.

Has anyone thought of Line Xing the front skid plate black? I think it would look pretty good on black especially. Thoughts?

I've considered this. Can't you do lineX in different colors as well?

Yeah you can. I was thinking a dark grey to match the bumper or black.

I'm doing the Ford soft roll up tonneau cover on my truck. I had this setup on my previous truck and really like the way it works. I've been looking at bike rack options for my Fat Tire bikes. I was planning on doing a rear hitch mounted rack just for ease of putting the bikes on and off. But I've been seeing some racks mounted over the bed and really like that idea better. First off the bike wont be exposed to near as much salt spray during the winter. I have a rack setup that I used on the top of my wifes Explorer that I could probably use. But I've been looking around and don't see any options for mounting hardware that would lay flat on the top of the bed rail so I can still mount the tonneau rails and then stick out for the bike rack feet to mount on. Has anyone come across a mounting bracket like that anywhere?

Interested in bike mount options as well. I currently have a hitch mounted rack and I HATE putting my bikes on it in the winter time due to all the salt. Could fit the bikes in the bed of my '12 raptor but it was a bit of a pain in the arse. Hard to find a rack/tonneau combo that's functional and tolerates the beating they can take off-road.

I found rail systems that mount on top of the bed rail and leave enough room for the tonneau cover. However they have to be bolted through the rail and I don't want to drill holes.

Google solves all problems:

Hell I'll have enough trouble getting them on the rack over the bed. I'll need a 10' ladder to mount them on the roof!

Haha.....go go gadget arms! Can't do that but the suction cup rack idea is not a bad idea if you have a tonneau that the suction cups will stick to.

I didn't realize those were suction cups until you mentioned it now. I was looking at the picture trying to figure out how the hell it mounted. I wonder if it comes with a safety strap for when the suction cups come loose. lol

I think the roof rack setups look pretty bad ass but I'd never be able to safely get the bike up there.

Also look at the pace-edwards rack.
