Nope no issue at all mine have been rock solid with no issues for about 6 months. I am also selling 4 cross bars for the truck if you’re interested.
I wish you were closer to Bay Area

Back on topic, no noise from the OEM crossbars, I have them mounted in the middle two positions - above passengers and above the spare tire.

I only hand wash or Sprayway myself, we poors don't have detailers. ?

I have the lightbar and all 4 crossbars. About 3% loss in range

The increased wind noise and drag is definitely noticeable but not a big deal

I just did a few thousand miles with the crossbars on stations 1 &2 and I can say that with no wind there is no noticeable noise, however, with a crosswind the downwind side is noticeably louder, just as the truck itself is louder. And if it’s a cold winter day don’t roll down the rear passenger window to check, it might not seal properly when you raise it back and then it’s horribly loud above 55 mph. Seemed to go away when the outside temps warmed up and/or you did a window recalibration.

Not noticeable with the racks in spots 3 & 4 over the truck bed.
