Provided are a cargo system for supporting cargo, and a vehicle provided with the cargo system. The cargo system includes a rack to be arranged along a length of the vehicle. The rack includes a frame assembly, and a rack arm that is adjustable relative to the frame assembly. A coupling system couples the rack arm to the frame assembly in a recessed position and a deployed position. In the recessed position, a portion of the rack arm is disposed within an interior space between an external body panel of the vehicle and a side panel of a cargo bed, to be concealed from view when an exterior of the vehicle is observed. In the deployed position, the portion of the rack arm extends from the interior space, to be exposed externally of the interior space, for supporting the cargo vertically above a portion of the vehicle.
