Default Garvin Adventure Rack
I am looking into getting a roof rack and I came across the Garvin Industries Adventure Rack. It appears to be fairly new and I can't seem to find anyone else who has it or knows much about it. If anyone here has any pics or info regarding this rack your help would be greatly appreciated.

I've never seen one in person, but I must say they seem very well built and look good. To me, it seems to be a competitor for Gobi.

Never mind....I was rear ended by a dodge truck and shoved into an H3 this morning on my way to work. Looks like it might be totaled.

Definitely recommend the rack. I use it for all kinds of things, camping, snowboarding, traveling... you name it. Best money ever spent on my jeep.

Yeah...luckily everyone was ok for the most part. And it is looking more and more like they are going to total it so I'm looking into the 2012's. I'm not crazy about the color matched hard tops and the interiors are getting kind of fancy for my taste but the 289 hp sounds much better. We'll see how it all turns out.

The garvin rack does look like it is exactly what I wanted so maybe I'll get one for the new Jk once all of the insurance dust settles.

Thanks!

Are all 2012 Wranglers color matched? You've gotta still be able to get a basic black hard top, right? Anyone?
