You can have those attaching to the bars that go long-ways with your vehicle. The bag itself features heavy-duty nylon construction, and the zipper is heavy-duty construction also, which is stitched into the fabric. And it also has a weatherproof covering for it, too. Just simply it covers over and attaches with Velcro. And the straps right here, these are adjustable. Depending on what size load you have in there, you can actually cinch it down to take up some of the bag so it is not flapping around in the breeze. It makes the bag a little more aerodynamic. And also, at the bottom of the straps you have these easy handles right here to help you carry the bag fully loaded if you want to.

- Will the Nomad Cargo Bag Work On a 2009 Chevrolet Traverse
- Yes, the Thule Nomad Roof Mounted Cargo Bag, item # TH856, would be best secured to the top of your vehicle with cross bars installed. Using cross bars to install the bag keeps the bag from sliding forward and backward on the vehicle when accelerating and stopping. I checked on cross bars for your vehicle and factory cross bars are the only option available for the rails that are installed on your vehicle at the factory. You would need to contact your dealer for these cross bars.

If you like, you can also install the cross bars on your vehicle to prohibit the back and forth motion on the back. You could use the Thule Crossroad kit # TH45050 to install cross bars on

- You are correct that the factory cross bars can carry a total weight of 165 pounds on your 2010 MDX. The roof bag will sit on the roof and could cause damage if gear is loaded too heavily in the bag. There is not a weight limit provided for loading items directly on the roof so you will need to be careful not to load too much weight in the bag.
A better option may be a cargo box. that will mount directly to your vehicles roof rack. This way you would be able to load the gear into the box and

- Yes, you can install the Thule Nomad Roof Mounted Cargo Bag, item # TH856, on the roof of your 2007 GMC Acadia with side rail only.

Attaching the bag this way will help keep the cargo bag from sliding when stopping and accelerating.
