Question:
We have a 2019 Explorer with the moon roof and the rails but no bars. What roof rack can we use? Are there any of the quieter racks made for our car?

For your 2019 Ford Explorer with moonroof and front-to-back flush roof rails I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero roof rack system because of its proven quality, quieter operation and because this black rack will provide an appearance more like a costlier factory rack. Rhino-Rack products also offer excellent value for the dollar as compared to other premium roof rack brands.
The system consists of parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRCH4 and # RRRCP45-BK and you can see an Explorer installation by clicking on the video link provided. This rack system offers a 165-lb weight capacity but you will want to confirm the weight rating of your Explorer's roof since it could very well be less. Always go by the lower rating.
