I made these adapters from 1.5-inch aluminum angle stock (0.125-inch thickness). They allow me to bolt Thule load bars on my Sherpa Capital rack. Great for canoe carrying.
Toyota factory Cross Bars from my 2025 TRD ORP. Gloss black finish. Removed from truck on Day 1, as I am using Thule Load bars instead. Prefer local pickup in Marblehead, MA as they are too heavy to ship in a cost effective manner. $225, almost half price!
I picked up my 2025 TRD ORP today, one of the first on the road in New England.
Observations:
Engine very responsive compared to my 5th Gen.
Highway noise is improved over my 2012 Trail but not luxury car level.
Steering, braking and handling are far improved over the 5th Gen.
24 mpg...
