In the Spotlight

The Rough Country "In the Spotlight" series is a celebration of our customers' favorite builds and what makes them so unique. From all-terrain vehicles to brand-new pickups that have been customized, we help share their passion with the world.

We love Jeeps—but we love showing off our customers' Jeeps even more. That's why we created the "In the Spotlight" category, which highlights the best of Rough Country customers' vehicles. These beasts of the road might be a tricked-out Rubicon or the classic Jeep Cherokee, but they're all in a class by themselves. The Jeep Cherokee XJ has a cult following, but why? In this Spotlight edition, we follow XJ enthusiast and owner Christian Thompson on his 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport build.

In the Spotlight with Christian Thompson

Roof rack vs. bed rack: compare cargo space, overlanding use, weight ratings, tonneau compatibility, and fitment to choose the right truck rack.

A roof rack works well when you want extra cargo space while keeping your truck bed open. A bed rack works well when you want to carry gear above the bed, build an overlanding setup, or mount larger accessories without loading the cab roof.
Neither option is better for every truck. Your best choice depends on what you carry, how often you use the bed, your vehicle's available mounting points, and the weight rating of the specific rack.
Here is how roof racks and bed racks compare and what to check before choosing one.
