Well worth the money. Goes up in a snap and stores quite a bit without the annoying flapping in the wind of some other products. I recommend it!



by:

For the most part this is a good cargo bag. Easy to install and remove. Only issue is zipper has broken

It sounds like the bag has gotten some use. it does have a limited lifetime warranty which would include the zipper. I can send you the warranty detail if you want them.



by:

I've used this once and it met my expectations. We will use this rooftop bag once or twice per year. I have not used it in rainy weather so I cannot say anything about the water resistance. It seems like a quality item. The seams, zippers and fabrics are sturdy. It is a bag that straps on to your cars roof rack. It does free up space inside the car. Thule nailed it.



by:

It fits perfectly between the cross bars of our toyota highlander. We did use a couple of bungee cords to help secure it, and it held up well from Texas to South Carolina and then back to Texas. In rain it did collect some water, but we expected that and had only put beach chairs and a foldable wagon in the cargo carrier that could get wet.



by:

We love our rooftop cargo bag. It fits perfectly on my daughters Honda CR-V and she’s used it many times to transport her things back and forth to college.



by:

I just used this bag again for a camping trip and a year later this bag has held up so well and extremely useful especially as our family has grown and having less room in our car. Super easy to take on and off does not make any sounds while driving and you just don't have to worry about it and then go. Love how you can adjust it to the amount of contents you have in there. You will be able to fit a good amounnt of stuff but cannot load it with numerous large suite cases or anything.

The product is great I will recommend



by:

Product is as advertised. At 13 cubic ft it is not big. It is easy to attach and rode securely for 1300 miles. It is not waterproof, but it does not claim to me. Stow in a small package when not in use.



by:

Fits roof rack perfectly, appears to be very high quality and is surprisingly very light weight.



by:

Love the cargo bag. Love the fast shipping provided by etrailer. What else can be said.



by:

The product arrived promptly and looks to be just what I need. I haven't used it yet but will when we go on vacation. I will definitely buy from etrailer again.



by:

Great service and rapid delivery. Product is as described and great quality. Would definitely recommend this retailer.

  • Will the Thule Outbound Cargo Bag # TH868 Fit on a Thule Roof Rack on a 2005 Acura TL
    Yes, the Thule Outbound Rooftop Cargo Bag, # TH868, will fit on the Thule roof rack on your 2005 Acura TL. This cargo bag will strap to the front and rear crossbar This bag is 36 inches long and the crossbars on your roof should be 27-1/2 inches apart. The bag will likely overhang the crossbars some, but it will still work well to hold and protect your cargo. You also have the option of carrying the cargo bag in a cargo basket like the Thule Canyon basket part # TH859XT. This way your...

  • Will the Sunroof Support a Fully Loaded Thule Cargo Bag
    Vehicle manufacturers do not recommend placing any cargo directly on sunroofs. The glass was not designed to support additional weight. A better option for you would be to add crossbars to your factory side rails and use a roof basket and a cargo bag or a roof mounted cargo box. This would keep the load off of the sunroof and allow you to carry more weight. Based on your photo, it appears that you have a GMC Acadia. There are different roof rack options depending on the year of your...

  • Roof Cargo Bag To Fit Factory Roof Rack On 2019 Infiniti QX60
    I do have an option for you but the Thule Interstate Rooftop Cargo Bag part # TH869 tie downs will most likely not reach the cross bar with that much overhang like you mention. I looked up your vehicle's factory roof rack and it doesn't look like it has raised rails either so it would be difficult to tie a bag that size down with a cross bar spread of 30". I recommend to use the Rightline Gear Sport 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag part # RL100S20 which will hook on the inside of the vehicle without...

  • Correct Selection of Roof Rack Systems for a 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander Without Roof Rails
    That is correct. In our roof rack fit guide for your 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander you will choose the category "with no existing rails or crossbars" which I've linked for you to filter through. I recommend checking out one of the Rhino-Rack aero-style roof rack system. We have the ROC25 which has more of an OEM look as well as the Vortex crossbar system which has the overhang past each leg. Below is a list of the parts you'll need for either setup: ROC25 Kit - # RR65GR Vortex Aero 54" Crossbars...

    Thanks for your continued support Michael! I drive out to Kansas a few times a year myself and I definitely know the drive you're talking about. Your Thule Quest TH846 was actually replaced by the Thule Outbound Rooftop Cargo Bag # TH868 and they install the same way. They have the front and rear straps for crossbars, but Thule also points out that the side anchoring rings can be used if the only anchoring option for your vehicle is the side rails (see attached clip of instructions).

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2018 Ford Escape With Panoramic Moon Roof
    The system designed for your panoramic moon roof is the Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum 60" Long # Y00426 and TimberLine Towers # Y33TR. I also recommend adding the lock cores # Y07204 to secure your investment. This rack is rated for 132 lbs max capacity on your vehicle. I recommend the etrailer.com J-Style Kayak Carrier - Folding - Universal Mount # E98878 for each kayak. This will need to be included in the total weight on your roof and each carrier is 12 lbs.

  • Does Thule Outbound Rooftop Cargo Bag Fit 2020 GMC Yukon
    The Thule Outbound Rooftop Cargo Bag # TH868 isn't a vehicle-specific fit, it is universal. So it will fit your 2020 GMC Yukon so long as your Yukon has a roof rack or raised side rails. I don't believe the Yukon has raised side rails so you would need to have a roof rack in order to use the Thule Outbound Rooftop Cargo Bag # TH868. If you don't have a rack you can add one, and I really like the option from Rhino-Rack. The reason for that is you get a really high quality rack at a better...

  • Can the Thule Outbound # TH868 Sit Inside a 39 Crossbar Spread on a 2006 Subaru Forester
    The Thule Outbound can definitely fit inside the 39" crossbar spread on your 2006 Subaru Forester. This would be the better way to secure this bag instead of trying to set the edges on top of your rails.

  • Best Cargo Bag for the Thule Canyon XT 859XT on a 2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack
    The Thule Interstate Rooftop Cargo Bag part # TH869 would fit perfectly inside of the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket part # TH859XT and allow for you to transport additional cargo on your roof without too much of a concern for it getting wet. The base has padding so there won't be any issues with wear from the cargo basket and the inside of the bag has compression straps so you can make sure all of your gear stays in place. It also has some of the most advanced water-resistance features....

  • Most Water-Resistant Roof Mount Cargo Bag for a 2012 Chevy Suburban
    In order for something to be considered water proof it has to be able to be submerged under water for a certain period of time and not let in water inside. There are no cargo bags or boxes that are completely water proof. There are bags that are better than others though. The Thule Outbound cargo bag, # TH868, is going to be the best option. It is IP-X3 certified for water sprays up to 60 degree angles. It has large flaps that cover the openings making it extraordinarily difficult for...

  • Can the etrailer.com Extra Large Cargo Bag # 988501 Be Used on the Roof of a 2008 Dodge Nitro
    The etrailer.com bag, item # 988501, is not recommended to be used as a rooftop cargo bag, due to the size and height of the bag. The bag works great or a hitch mounted cargo carrier, but it's about as aerodynamic as a brick so it wouldn't be the best choice for a roof mount. As long as your vehicle has a roof rack to tie a bag down to, I would recommend the Thule Outbound Roof Rack Cargo Bag, part # TH868. This bag offers 13 cubic feet of storage, and is covered by a limited lifetime...

  • Will the Thule Outbound Roof Mounted Cargo Bag Fit a 2011 Subaru Outback with Factory Roof Rack
    Yes, the Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Bag, item # TH868, will work nicely on your 2011 Subaru Outback with factory roof rack. You should check your owners manual for the capacity of your roof rack and stay within that limitation. Another recommendation is to clean the roof and the bottom of the bag before installation. This will reduce the possibility of damage to the vehicle roof when carrying the bag. You may also be interested in the Tire-mounted folding wheel step Item # PT68ZR, to make...

  • Does the Thule Outbound Roof Mounted Cargo Bag Fit The 2006 Chrysler Pacifica
    The Thule Outbound Roof Mounted Cargo Bag, part # TH868, will fit on your Chrysler Pacifica as long as it has load bars going across the top of the vehicle. It looks like the 2006 Pacifica came with factory load bars that run side to side on the vehicle roof so you would not need to add any.

  • Will the Thule Cargo Bag # TH868 Fit on the Crossbars on a Toyota Highlander
    Ideally you will want the bag to fit between the crossbars but it can set on top of them. The instructions (linked) state that if possible, place the bag between the bars so that it fits snugly between them. It can also ride on top of the bars if needed. The bag attaches to the crossbars using straps that are attached to the bag. Make sure that you stay within the manufacturer recommended weight capacity for your roof. Check your owners manual for weight capacities. I have included a video...

  • Are Thule Cargo Bag Side Support Bars Available for a Kia Soul
    When attaching a cargo bag to the roof of your vehicle the Thule roof rack will be sufficient, without bars that go front to back. You just need to attach the roof bags straps in such a way that the bag cannot slide from side to side. Thule does not offer a side rail for the roof rack on the Kia Soul. One thing I like to point out is that when using a cargo bag like the Thule Outbound Bag, # TH868, you should clean the top of the vehicle and bottom of the bag before installing the bag,...

  • Will the Thule Outbound Cargo Bag Fit a 2005 Pontiac Vibe
    Having the cargo bag, # TH868, between the rails would be ideal, but it can also sit on top of the bars. If you can place it between the bars, make sure the bottom of the bag and the roof are clean to avoid scratching the paint.

  • Trailer Hitch and Cargo Carrier for 2011 Lexus ES 350
    I checked the fit for your 2011 Lexus ES 350 with a panoramic sunroof and the roof rack manufacturers each state there are no roof racks intended to be used on your vehicle due to the sunroof. That does not mean there isn't a way for you to carry extra gear, however. To do this you will simply need to use a trailer hitch, the Draw-Tite # 36416, and a compatible cargo carrier. The 20x47 Reese Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs # 63155 would give you more cargo capacity than...

  • Will the Thule Outbound Cargo Bag Fit on a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee or is a Roof Rack Needed
    The Thule Outbound cargo bag, # TH868, will fit on your 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee if the vehicle has a factory roof rack (side rails that run front to back and crossbars that run side to side). If your Grand Cherokee just has factory rails that run front to back, you will need to add the Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401, 53" WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420, as well as locks # TH450400. This will provide you with the cross bars needed to support the Thule Ranger cargo bag. Please note that...

  • Is the Thule Outbound Roof Mount Cargo Bag Compatible with Roof Rack on a Volkswagen Passat Wagon
    The Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Bag, item # TH868, should work just fine on your Passat Wagon as long as you have factory cross bars that run side to side to attach the bag to. If you do not have factory cross bars that run side to side then you will need cross bars. If you would like to send me the year, make and model of your Passat I would be glad to recommend cross bars for you.

  • Roof Mount Cargo Bag Recommendation for a 2005 Honda Accord Sedan with Yakima Roof Rack
    The straps and bag shape of roof mount bags is such that you cannot mount them sideways on the roof of a vehicle. Ideally, you would want a bag to fit between the bars but if that is not possible you can rest the bag on the bars. It may sag in the middle so a roof protector, # RL100650, is recommended. The largest capacity cargo bag we have is # RL100S30 with 18 cubic feet of storage. Cargo boxes on the other hand go up to 21 cubic feet so a box is still a viable option but more costly....

  • Cargo Bag for a 2013 Toyota Matrix with Factory Roof Rack
    You have a couple of options. First, you can use a bag of your choice, even if it is longer than the bar spread on your 2013 Toyota Matrix. The bag will sag in the middle but there is no way around it for this set up. To protect the roof where the bag will sag you can use protective pad # RL100650. And the second option is to use a roof mount cargo basket, # Y07070, and attach the bag to it. The basket is a direct fit to the factory roof rack on your Matrix. And yet a third option is...
