If you run the light bar cut out without a light bar in place of the cut out, you will experience additional wind noise than normal. This is due to the cut out allowing the wind to run between the roof and the rack as you drive and it is not exactly a fun noise/whistle to hear, but it is not obnoxious.
Thanks for the information.Depends on whether you want to run a light bar or not. My Heretic bar is still on backorder, so my rack does make more noise than I'd like, however it's really not that big of a deal. I cannot speak to how it sounds with a bar in place, however I don't find mine to be all that annoying.
For me, the Bronco exhibits noticeable wind noise at speeds above 70 miles per hour, but I don't experience significant wind noise when driving below 70 miles per hour.
Since I have to travel on highways in order to get to the rockies I am particularly concerned about the wind noise issue.
I truly appreciate the cut-out design with the smaller front air deflector.
