I can't think of any way to do it on top of a pod. You'd be 10' in the air with them and put up and take down would be interesting if not challenging. We use the Yakima racks that bolt onto the side rails of the pickup. 1 bolt each and they hold well.

Good luck in your search.

I can't think of any scenario where it would make sense to put the kayak on top of the pod. There are a million options for truck racks for any price range. I am looking hard at the Thule option but it is pricey.

It's probably going to be a lot easier to come up with something for the truck.

Probably covered somewhere, but does anyone know how to carry 2 kayaks on a 178? TV is Ford F150 with no camper top, yet.
