Curt Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2016 Nissan Quest

Today on our 2016 Nissan Quest we're going to be test fitting the 20 by 48 CURT cargo carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" hitches, part number C18110. This has a 300 pound carrying capacity. On the floor of the cargo carrier you can see that it has this nice mesh flooring. That's going to make it a lot easier to clean. Also around the border of the cargo carrier we have these tie down points which you can use for your ratchet straps or your bungee cords. The cargo carrier does have a slightly raised shank which is going to assist you when you have a particularly low-sitting hitch so you don't have any clearance issues between the cargo carrier or the ground. The exhaust is going to be on the passenger side and face down away from the cargo carrier so you don't have to worry about any heat-sensitive materials when you're loading those up.



Curt Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2016 Nissan Quest

Today on our 2016 Nissan Quest, we're going to be test fitting the 24x60 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches, part number C18152. This has a carrying capacity of 500 pounds. We have this nice mesh floor here on the bottom which makes it easier to clean, and we also have this railing all the way around the cargo carrier which can serve as a tie down point for either your ratchet straps or your bungee chords. I'm going to go ahead and give you some quick measurements now. Measuring from the edge of the bumper to our outer edge, we've added about 33.5" to the rear of the vehicle. For our ground clearance that's going to be about 12", and then our closest point to the bumper is going to be about 8" to this edge here. That same measurement from the center of the hitch pin hole is going to be about 12", so just keep that in mind if you have different style hitches installed on your vehicle that go further out, or come further in.



Rhino Rack Roof Basket Review - 2016 Nissan Quest

Today on our 2016 Nissan Quest, we're going to be test fitting the Rhino-Rack Roof-Mounted Cargo Basket, part number RMCB. This measures 47 inches long by 35 inches wide, and has a carrying capacity of 165 pounds. Although, you want to double check with your vehicle's manual to make sure your roof can withstand that weight. We have a fairing at the front of it here, and that's going to reduce the wind noise and drag while you're driving. We have the 3 feet already installed on it. We'll go ahead and show you how the last one installs. Now, we already have the foot in place, and that's going to be this little bracket right here.



Curt Roof Basket Review - 2016 Nissan Quest

Today on our 2016 Nissan Quest, we're going to be test fitting the Curt cargo rooftop basket, part number C-1-8-1-1-5. This measures forty-one and a half inches long by thirty-seven inches wide by four inches deep. It has a carrying capacity of a hundred and fifty pounds, although you want to double check with your vehicle's manual to make sure that your roof can withstand that kind of weight. We have this faring here at the front which is going to cut down the wind noise and drag while you're driving and if you would want something that's a little bit longer, Curt does offer an extension you could add to this, which adds about ten inches or so to the back, which you can find on "Etrailer.com". It's very easy to install. We have these U-bolts that just wrap around your actual roof rack and then tighten down with these knobs here.



Thule Roof Basket Review - 2016 Nissan Quest

Today on our 2016 Nissan Quest, we're going to be test fitting the Thule Canyon XT Rooftop Cargo Basket, part number TH859XT. This measures 49 inches long, by 40 inches wide, by 6 inches high at the tallest point, excuse me. It has an aerodynamic shape to it, which will cut down wind nose and drag. Also that will help out with this is the fairing that comes installed on the cargo basket itself. If you wanted to actually extend this out, this does come with an extension that is sold separately, and you can find on etrailer.com. Let's go ahead and show you how it installs. We already have the 3 other U-bolts and clamps installed.
