Your vehicle may be equipped with
an optional roof rack. This unique
feature allows you to carry cargo on
an inner roof rack as well as on the
conventional roof rack. The
maximum load for the conventional
roof rack is 100 lbs (45 kg). The
inner rack can also hold 100 lbs (45
kg) if in the down and locked
position. The combined load for
both the conventional fixed rack and
the sliding portion attached to the rear bumper should not exceed 100
lbs (45 kg). Distribute the loads as evenly as possible on both the roof
and inner rack, when extended or stowed. Always secure loads by using
the tie down loops or rack accessories available from your local Ford
Dealership.
