Roof Rack Question

[Bocaj77]

I have been looking into getting a Thule rack for 2 mountain bikes. I wanted to also look into the Yakima one also. When I called Yakima they basically told me the stock roof rack on the Vibe sucks. I have a 2004 Vibe and Im wondering if anyone else is using the Thule rack and if they have any problems?

I have a Yakima and Thule setup on my car and it works great. The factory crossbars are not the strongest, but I've never had a problem with my Yakima/Thule setup.p.s. I'm selling my setup too if you are interested

My question is I am leaning toward the Thule, but the stock roof rack sits back far on the Vibe and I dont know how hard it will be to load the bike. Can some people post some picts of their bike racks on their Vibes please

Check out the pics in my garage. There are a few with my bikes on top.

I have a 2010 but the rack is still towards the back and i do not have the side rails like the older vibes did but I just bought the yak "forklift" the front of the bike has to face backwards but it was the best solution for me and I really like it. It is not very hard to load the bikes the position on the roof makes no difference for me.
