| Owners say | Six owners name the FORGED in their own posts or post titles, and two more describe one without naming it; their trucks include two Mavericks, a Colorado ZR2 and an F-150 Raptor. Four more run an ACS without saying which version, and two own the older ACS Classic, kept separate here. | Ten owners name the XTR1 in their own posts: one on a Maverick, one on a Colorado, two on Tacomas, one on a Silverado, two on trucks a generation older than the ones we cover and three who don't name the truck. One more, who posted a discount code for the rack, is left out. |
| Our verdict | The rack we would put a rooftop tent on: published off-road ratings and no play, at a high direct-sale price. | A no-drill clamp-on rack that rides over a roll-up or Retrax cover; order early and plan around the 450 lb off-road rating. |
