Has anyone here used
Yakima roof racks? I'm looking to add racks to our 2005 Honda Pilot to make hauling my canoe and other gear easier. Currently the Pilot does not have any roof racks, though for $800 plus tax Honda can install some.

The Yakima "Q Tower" removable system will fit the Pilot, but I'd like some real life feedback on them before making the purchase. If you have any can you tell me:
1. How securely do they attach to your vehicle?
2. How well do the hold your gear?
3. Would you buy thm again?
4. Is there a better option out there for under $400?
Thanks.
