First review that shows the top! You sold me
Glad I could help!
Your T4R looks good 👍 brother. Wrap looks amazing. I appreciate why you explained your choice. I went with a Uptop Bravo full rack and a victory ladder.
Thanks bro! Appreciate the kind words! Great choice victory looks solid too! Thanks for following my videos again it motivates me to keep going
Just got mine delivered today!!
Ordered April 15th
Heck yes!!! Worth the wait!! You're gonna love it! I've got an install video if you run into any hiccups. Goodluck! tag me on social after the install @otzlee_4runner
Totally understand why you picked Gobi. Solid rack. I prefer the look of the CNC style racks and was really concerned with water intrusion so I went with Sherpa. Still waiting for it to arrive but I can’t wait.
Sounds great! Keep me posted I heard good things about the Sherpa as well. What’s the current lead time?
@@OtzleeExplains they said 3-4 weeks but then the shop got COVID over the holidays. Not sure.
I really like this rack. It’s definitely my favorite. I like the overall design
Yes definitely my favorite out of all the racks i've seen. Build quality, strength, and design is just superior than most. Thanks for watching Matt!
Awesome rig,enjoy it
Thanks 👍I appreciate you watching the videos
I love that wrap. So sick. Still loving the rack? I think my favorite part about it is the powder coated steel making it stronger than aluminum competition and I really love the mesh top so you can walk around on top.
I still love the rack, no complaints, I would do it again. Only bad part was the lead time. If you’re patient. It’s a great rack and will hold its value.
Nice rig! I was looking at the Gobi, but the 9 month wait was a little too long, I wouldn’t have received it until July/August timeframe and want to get out in the spring. I went with the Sherpa instead and happy with it.
Yeah lead time was a pain. One thing that was nice is that they didn’t charge until it shipped. My favorite rack so far
Just got mine on yesterday, took 10 months
Hey brother! love the video. I am planning on purchasing the stealth rack for a 2019 4runner...Will the back hatch still fully open and stay up with the additional weight of the ladder? Thanks.
Thanks for the love! I've actually owned two of these Gobi rack/ladders before and with ANY additional weight to the trunk, it will start to sag after 2-3 yrs. It costs $60 to replace new from amazon (10min install). If you live in the cold, it the struts will give even sooner.
Great video. I just got a 2022 Trail Edition in Lunar Rock. I am slowly making changes. I just ordered the Gobi ladder. How long did it take for yours to arrive? Your 4Runner looks awesome.
Thanks man! It took gobi about 6 months to ship my rack and ladder. I know it’s long but it’s worth it imo. Solid construction
@@OtzleeExplains The ladder right now takes 14 -16 weeks to get. So ready for it to arrive.
@@mshawnlane Hopefully they'll speed things up! Keep us posted Shawn
Great looking truck and rack. Newbie question. How do you wash the roof of the truck after you install a rack like this?
Never a noob question. Since the rtt covers the roof you don’t really get bird poo, saps, or anything sun baked on the roof. Most times I just rinse it well and use a big drying towel to absorb as much water in the places I can get to. That’s also one of the reasons why I wrapped my roof before placing the RTT.
Great video, im on the fence of getting a Gobi, im turned off by the super high cost of their accessories, like themounting accessories for shovels, awnings etc. Theyre like in the 100's of dollars. What is your take on that?
You’re absolutely right. Everything they have is super pricey. But to their defense the parts are really solid. I rolled my previous 5th gen and my roof rack took a good amount of the impact and my roof wasn’t smashed in when the roll finally stopped. I was quite impressed and blessed to survive it. But yes, very expensive parts.
Nice video. How do you feel about wind noise? When I get roof basket mounted, it was almost impossible to sunroof getting tilted due to the wind noise. I would expect that MPG will drop like 1 or 2.
I don’t have much wind noise tbh. The wind flaring does a good job. Mpg dropped about 1 after rack.
I noticed you have a blsck wrap on your truck. Did you have it professionally done or did you diy it?
I actually did it myself. First time wrapping and took 52hrs lol
I saw this video a while back, and debated getting one but now im about to pull the trigger on the gobi stealth. May i ask, what is the reason the ladder messes with the shocks?
It doesn't really "mess" up the struts/shocks, its more of just the added weight that the struts/shocks cannot handle over time.
Will a tent fit on it with the crossbars the stealth comes with?
I have my ikamper installed to it.
Most rtt will attach to it no problem
You didn’t mention anything about wind noise. How bad is it after the roof rack install?
I had a bit of wind noise up whenever I opened the sunroof. It wasn’t until I installed a lightbar, that has helped with the wind noise
Would this w
Pork for luggage or would the ranger be better?
This works for luggage pretty well. The gobi can handle a lot of
It’s weight 70lbs and caught your struts to go out? How did the ikamper which is 160lbw something do to your struts?
The ladder only weights 20lbs. Any additional weight to the trunk will put stress on the struts over time. Especially in cold weather the strut components will harden and not hold weight well.
How’s the wind noise with the sunroof open?
It’s not too bad but I do have a Roof top on as well
Gobi wait is too long, anything over 3-4 months they should not even be taking orders; at least they don't charge until it's ready but even then I've heard people get double charged or charged and it didn't ship for a month or so after. I ordered a Gamiviti rack last week with shipment estimate in 4 weeks. Same construction method, quality and actual customer service that is responsive. Tim at Gamiviti has been great to deal with.
Yes its long but worth the wait imo. Most of the top branded items currently have long lead times like gobi and kings for example. The reason is there is a high demand for them. Resale value will hold. I haven't heard of Gamiviti before and google only shows 2 rating, are they new? Would love to hear your feedback when your receive yours. Goodluck!
Ill get prinsu instead
Great rack as well. To each their own. Thanks for watching the video
