Ok, found out the hard way, your going to have to buy an extra 130 bucks or so (or more) worth of specifice mounting hardware for your particular vehical to get this rack to work. Other than that the rack is great, just wish that the discription had listed that you need the additional mounts. Be sure and check the SURCO's website and the application guide to find out what exactly you will need.

Thule Ascent 1600 Cargo Box Review

I just used this carrier on a 1600-mile round trip from northern Illinois to North Carolina (on a 2005 Astro Van).On the return trip (September 14), we went through extreme hurricane force winds (aftermath from Hurricane Ike) of 75 MPH from all directions in Louisville, KY.The wind downed trees on the interstate, but the carrier held firmly and no rain entered despite an incredible amount of buffeting due to the winds.I was concerned that the sideways and up-and-down effects of severe buffeting might loosen the grips on the crossbar, but the grips were as tight when I arrived home as they were when I left home.I saw two top carriers that had separated from their vehicles and had been run over on I-65...that's how bad the wind was.

When I first got it it fit up well, but one of the saddles that sits on the cross rail broke.I called Thule customer service and they were very nice.They immediately sent four new saddles and said that I must have received one of their earlier units that had substandard saddles.They apparently discovered this recently and were very accommodating.I appreciate their fine customer service, although I am glad I had time to get the saddles before my trip.Suggest that you make certain that you have the most recent saddles.

Shipping service and tracking through Amazon was great, and the price was the best I could find!Thule 604 Ascent 1600 Rooftop Cargo Box (Black)

Yakima RocketBox 16 Rooftop Cargo Box Review

This is my second rocket box. I love the room provided especially for long items, skis, fishing poles. I really does hold a lot of stuff.

There's no wind noise and no measurable affect on fuel economy. I can easily find my vehicle in a crowded parking lot.

The new improved attachment clamps fit my factory rack without the need for buying rail mounts like in the old version saving me $100.

I did prefer the old style supports though the new ones are probably more reliable than the older "shock type" found on auto hatches and hoods.

If you need storage space you can't go wrong with the big Rocket Box.

Product Description:
It's Yakima's most popular rooftop cargo box ever, and for good reason. That's because the RocketBox 16 offers plenty of cargo space for skis, paddles, and even jousting poles. The RocketBox 16 measures 92 by 26 by 15 inches (L x W x H), with a total storage area of 16 cubic feet. That's enough for a weekend's worth of gear for three or more people, or enough skis and boards for a carload of ski bums and snow bunnies. In fact, the long and lean design means there isn't much you can't carry. More significantly, the RocketBox 16 fits on round, square, and most factory crossbars, and includes quick-installation hardware and SKS locks. Outfitted with an old-school matte black finish, the RocketBox 16 carries a limited lifetime warranty.

SportRack Aero XL Roof Box Review

Was very easy to mount on the Sequoia, and feels pretty sturdy (and watertight).Absolutely no wind noise or rattling could be heard inside the vehicle at 75 MPH.I bought it because the width and height makes it better for carrying family stuff than comparable size Thule or Yakima boxes, though it's not long enough for skis.Low price is a huge bonus.I also like that it opens from the back instead of the side, since on my tall vehicle the easiest way to reach the box is standing on the rear bumper.I looked at the big name boxes, and I can't see how they are worth 2.5x as much.

**UPDATE**Have now taken on a few long trips.It did not seem to affect gas mileage at all, and stayed dry inside through 300 miles of downpour.I have to take it off to fit in the garage, which would be true of any box, but I can get it on or off in less than 10 minutes.I fit 2 carry-on suitcases, 4 sleeping bags, a stroller, a full-frame baby backpack, and a small baby bouncer seat inside.
