As we head into the summer road trip season, the way truck owners utilize their vehicles is constantly evolving. A pickup truck is the ultimate modular platform, yet for decades, adding a static ladder rack kept you locked into a single setup. You either had a tall rack built for construction materials, or you had an open bed.

Choosing a bike rack used to be simple: you bought a hanging rack and called it a day. But as bikes have evolved—getting heavier, longer, and more varied in frame shape—the hardware used to carry them has had to level up. Enter the Thule Vero. At Rack Attack, we’ve seen every rack design under the sun since we opened our doors in 1996. We’ve seen the "wobbly" budget options and the over-engineered puzzles. The Thule Vero feels like the answer to a question many riders are asking: Can I have a rack that carries everything without the drama? In this deep dive, we’re breaking down the unboxing, the innovative 180-degree loading system, and the accessories that turn this rack into a mobile bike shop.

So, you’re ready to take your camping game to new heights—literally. Whether you’re a seasoned overlander looking to streamline your setup or a weekend warrior tired of wrestling with ground tent poles in the mud, the rooftop tent (RTT) revolution has likely caught your eye. But as you start browsing, you realize it isn’t just about picking a tent; it’s about understanding your vehicle’s limits, your lifestyle needs, and the engineering behind the gear. At RackAttack, we’ve spent over 25 years helping adventurers get road-ready. In this guide, we’re going deep into everything you need to know to make an informed investment in your home-away-from-home.

If you are searching for the best retractable tonneau cover, you have likely realized that the Retrax catalog can be confusing. Many truck owners debate between a retractable vs folding tonneau cover, but once they see the security and sleek profile of a Retrax, the choice usually becomes clear. In this expert Retrax tonneau cover review, we break down exactly how to navigate the lineup. To make the right choice, you only need to make three decisions: the material (polycarbonate vs. aluminum), the rails (standard vs. T-slot for racks), and how it opens (manual vs. electric). Here is exactly how to navigate the Retrax catalog so you buy the right cover for your truck the first time.

The open road has never been more inviting, but it has also never been more complex. As we move through 2026, the vehicles we drive and the gear we carry have evolved. SUVs have become more aerodynamic, electric vehicles (EVs) have prioritized range, and our outdoor equipment has become more specialized. Whether you are searching for the best cargo box for an SUV to haul a family's worth of beach gear or looking for a rugged rooftop cargo box for a road trip into the mountains, your choice of storage is the foundation of your adventure. A cargo box is an investment in your sanity. It is the "spare room" that turns a cramped cabin into a relaxed, passenger-focused environment.

Summer 2026 is officially here, and the trailheads are calling. Whether you are gearing up for a cross-country family road trip, exploring local mountain trails, or traveling to a weekend triathlon, the right gear makes all the difference. Choosing the best bike rack for your vehicle transforms the loading process from a chore into an effortless, seamless part of your adventure.

Electric bikes have completely changed how we ride, but they’ve also introduced a new challenge: transporting them safely. Unlike traditional bikes, most e-bikes weigh between 55 and 80 lbs. That’s nearly double the weight standard bike racks were designed to carry. Using the wrong rack isn’t just inconvenient, it can damage your bike, your vehicle, or worse, create a serious safety risk on the road. That’s why choosing a purpose-built electric bike rack is essential. In this guide, we break down the top 5 electric bike racks available at Rack Attack in 2026, along with everything you need to know before buying.
