Yakima Exo Swingbase with Dual shelf and dual gear lockers - Will it work?

Hey! They spelled Yakama wrong!

That is pretty wild. I had no idea. Thanks for sending that. I wonder if that is where they got the name from. I guess I don't know much about the history of the company in this case. I honestly assumed Yakima was a Japanese name from the sound of it.

No. Yakima valley in Eastern Washington. My father in law grew up in Wapato and has told me the company was originally based there.

Is the road warrior attachment big enough to hold a spare tire you guys think?

This should help. We loaded light stuff in the Yakima. Heavy towards front of the bed. So no load issues for us. The suspension seemed to handle it much better than my raptor.
the swing is in the photos. This should help it make sense. Tailgate can be opened when the Yakima is swung open. Both levels.

Realize I’m reviving an old thread here but thinking of getting one of these that is being sold used locally. If you put the second level on, that completely obstructs the camera right so you lose FSD?

as long as trailer mode is off, fsd will work. I drove from philly to madison wisconsin with my rear cam blocked by my hitch tent. fsd all the way no probs.

How does it know what’s behind it? Composite from the two side cams that look backish I guess?
I have an electronic mirror that’s roof mounted so if that’s true I lose nothing really.
Madison is such a great town.

Added this toy to the stable of Cybertruck “necessities”. Thanks for the awesome suggestion. Didn’t even know this thing existed.
