Yakima SkyBox NX 18 Rooftop Cargo Box Review - 2023 Ford F-150

How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Yakima SkyBox NX on our 2023 Ford F-150. The SkyBox is gonna help solve the problem of having more space, especially when you have a crew cab that's a little bit more focused towards moving passengers versus equipment and stuff. Your short bed is gonna be, you know, pretty limited for space, so you can take advantage of your rooftop to get those bigger, bulkier items on the road along with you. The SkyBox NX has the nanomaterial. And essentially what that's gonna do is gonna allow it to resist scratching and just maintain a nice appearance on top of your vehicle. A cool feature, you have a locking box and the key stays in the lock once it's unlocked.



Flint Hill Goods Roof Cargo Basket Review - 2021 Ford F-150

How's it going everybody Today we are going to be taking a look at the Flint Hill Goods Cargo Basket and how it fits on our 2021 Ford F-150. Typically, this might sit on the roof, but in our case we have it on the bed rack system that we have installed on our F-150, just 'cause that's gonna make our items much easier to get to and we can still use our bed while getting this up on top and increasing the storage space overall of our vehicle. So let's take a closer look. Our basket is gonna be made out of durable black powder coated steel. The whole construction is going to be that material, so it's gonna hold up really well against rust and corrosion, and all of these points, including the top and bottom rails as well as the rails that go through are gonna be points where we can strap things down to, which I definitely recommend. And we have strap kits here available at etrailer.

The box is going to be made of a durable ABS plastic so it's gonna hold up to the elements.
