I'm in the market for a Thule and overwhelmed by the variety of products they offer. It seems like I have two main options – newer Aeroblade or classic square bars. Give the Aeroblade are only $100 more, that's what I'm leaning towards.
My question is: What should I be aware of before purchasing a Thule roof rack system?
Are the Aeroblade bars really worth the extra cost? Do they sacrifice any sort of practicality (e.g. different adapters, reduced strength) over square bars?
Are there any negative day-to-day implications to be aware of? For example, I have a sunroof and have concerns that a roof rack may get in the way.
Sorry if this sounds like a laundry list of questions. My hope for this post is just to get some first-hand advice from Thule owners to assist in navigating my purchase. Advice that you would have liked to know when buying your own roof rack!
Thank you in advance.
