if the box could slide up another inch the hatch would clear the back of the box. I have a 2017 Subaru Outback.
I just received the box today and have not taken it out on the road.

I found the toolbox easy to mount on the roof of the car, secure, quiet on the road. I wish I could slide 2 inches it further forward on the rack so that I could fully open the hatch. I have a Subaru outback.

my rooftop carrier! It was perfect for our golf clubs. etrailer was wonderful. Great communication and it arrived on expected date.
by: Greg05/31/2023
I'd go 3.5 if I could. Def will work but... Feels cheaply made / flimsy, the key latch also seems a little cheesy. For the amount of money I would like a little more robust. I get it keep it light but geezo
by: Nancy 02/03/2023
I received the box last week and mounted it on my 2022 Toyota RAV 4 Prime installed roof rack crossbars. The box fits well, no interference with the rear lift gate. I have not yet driven with it on the car - and won’t until we travel carrying passengers and skis/equipment. (Our garage doors are small - 83” height - so the box cannot be on the roof going in or out of the garage.)
by: Noah 11/02/2022
Very sturdy construction, yet light weight and slim cargo box. I have a P3 Volvo XC70 and it fits very nicely with the rear hatch open. I like the slim design of this cargo box which should minimize the reduction in MPGs while its on the vehicle.
by: Robert06/05/2021
Love it. Fits perfectly on my 2014 Outback and 2017 Town and Country.
Easy to install and uninstall.
Waterproof.
I like that you can not remove keys without locking. No accidentally driving off with it being shut but not locked.

Outstanding. Ive used it five times, one to two week trips. No issues in rain. On our last trip we were caught in heavy winds and snow. I did have snow accumulation inside. Speed of vehicle and wind must have forced the snow inside. Ironically Ive never had rain, under similiar driving situation, enter the carrier. After I got our stuff out I was unable to lock the carrier. Melted snow refroze in locking lugsnot the key lock did not freeze. The temperature never approached freezing....the high that week was about -5. So I took the carrier off and the same came out a few days the ice in the lug areas meleted. I was able to lock it and make it home, two days of driving, with no issues.

The folks at your company where thoughtful, helpful and thorough. Thanks for everything and keep up your wonerful customer service. The Thule Pulse Alpine roof cargo box has been great!
by: William07/21/2018
Perfect for vehicles with limited space between bike carriers for mounting. This was the narrowest clam shell I could find. Fits 2 inflatable stand up paddle boards plus more. The only tricky thing with this unit was figuring out how to change the lock core (it's a different process than other Thule products) to match my other locks on the vehicle, but the etrailer video on this topic came to the rescue.
by: Tim 12/19/2022
It was what I expected with a feature that I didn't expect. The quick mounting clamps make it very easy to attach.
by: David10/28/2021
The Thule Alpine turned out to be a great choice. It fits all of our roof racks and is easy to adjust. More room than expected and the low profile is great if you have a larger SUV.
by: Doc08/23/2020
First, there we’re complications with the delivery which I caused and eTrailer reps worked with me and worked it out. Second, All products purchased fit and installed rather easily on my 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK. This outcome was a result of working with one of their reps to get the right in-stock parts that fit right. Finally, I reviewed installation videos which helped me get the job done right the first time.
by: Anthony 08/11/2021
The product is good, a bit pricy for what you get but etrailer seemed to have the most competitive price around. The service and delivery is second to none and makes me keep coming back for my vehicle needs. I have had too many bad experiences with shipping items like this from the (online big tech store), but etrailer's delivery/carrier service is excellent every time!
by: Philip12/14/2020
arrived in a timely manner, freight company called to set up delivery, am satisfied with my purchase. Would buy from etrailer again!

Pod works great, got the long version 210cm, fits shovels and other tools, kayak paddles and our skis. glad I got it, keeps my truck bed free of awkward shaped things to pack it better. Got it during covid, took a while but worth the wait. etrailer is a great company Ive bought stuff from them before and will again.
by: Bill 01/31/2019
Great rack. Low profile fits on Toyota Highlander into standard height garage. Stays on all winter for skis plus a couple times throughout the year for other trips. Fits at least four pairs of skis.
by: Ian12/30/2021
Came earlier than expected not damaged. Customer service was excellent and the pod is working out great!
by: Robert H.10/02/2017
Love the low profile.= less wind resistance and better mpg. Lock keeps valuables safe and dry. Exactly what I wanted.

See what our Experts say about this Thule Roof Box
- How Much Height Above Crossbar Does Thule Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box AddYou have a keen eye because the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613 is recessed; I checked with Thule and this cargo box will add 11.3 inches of height above your crossbar, making it one of the lowest-profile rooftop cargo boxes on the market. Aside from its low-profile the Pulse Alpine is also among the easiest cargo boxes to handle because it weighs just 30 lbs. It is simple to use with mounting hardware that you only need to tighten with hand knobs and even locks to keep all...

- Best Crossbars Factory or Aftermarket to Mount Thule Pulse Alpine Cargo Box on a Ford ExplorerThe Thule Pulse Alpine cargo box # TH613 is designed to fit round, square, aero, elliptical and most factory crossbars so it does fit well on all of those. There are some exclusions though so I would need to know the year of your Ford Explorer to determine if the box fits the factory or dealer bars. The best fit is going to be on Thule bars since they are testing primarily on their bars so that doesn't mean the box will not fit well on other bars too. I did check on a 2014 Ford Explorer...
view full answer... - Measurement of Width Between Mounting Feet on Thule Pulse Alpine and ForceThe Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box - 11 Cu Ft - Matte Black # TH613 has a width between the mounting feet of 14-1/2 inches. The Thule Force Alpine is no longer available but has a width between the mounting feet of 16-3/4 inches according to my tech contact at Thule.
view full answer... - Could Thule Pulse Alpine Roof Carrier Allow Rear Hatch to Open If Installed on 2004 Subaru ForesterMeasure from the center of the front crossbar back to the rear hatch seam on the roof of your 2004 Subaru Forester. If that dimension is larger than 55-1/4 inches then the Thule Pulse Alpine part # TH613 would allow the rear hatch to open.
view full answer... - Will Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box Fit 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee with Factory Roof RackThe Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613 is confirmed to fit the factory roof rack on your 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee without modifications or adapters. Thule confirmed the roof box to be a fit for your vehicle. I have attached a review video of the Pulse Alpine # TH613 box on a similar Grand Cherokee with factory roof rack for you. When we test fit this box to the vehicle showing in the video, we found that the rear hatch did make contact with the rear of the cargo box when fully...

- Which Thule Roof Box Will Allow Rear hatch To Open Fully On 2015 Toyota 4Runner To make sure a roof box allows you to open the rear hatch fully, you can take a quick measurement. Move your front crossbar forward as far as it will go and measure from the center of the crossbar back to the seam between the roof and the rear hatch. That is called 'Front Clearance'. I have attached a chart that gives you the front clearance requirement for the Thule roof boxes we offer. For example, the Thule Alpine, part # TH613 needs a front clearance of 55-1/4 inches. And will fit...

- Thule Roof Cargo Box for 2011 Honda CR-V with Factory Crossbars to Carry 4 Pair of SkisI suggest the Thule Pulse Alpine, part # TH613, for your 2011 Honda CR-V. It's confirmed by Thule to fit the factory crossbars and can hold 4 to 6 pairs of skis that are up to 210 cm long. The overall weight capacity is 110 pounds. The Pulse Alpine also includes locks. I've linked a video review for you to take a look at as well.
view full answer... - Will the Thule Pulse Alpine Cargo Box Interfere with the Rear Hatch on a 2014 Subaru ForesterI spoke to my contact at Thule and she told me that the best way for you to determine if you have enough clearance would be to open the hatch on your 2014 Subaru Forester and measure from the crossbar back to the nearest portion of the hatch. If that distance is greater than 26 inches then the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613 should fit without interference. The reason for this is that when the rear mounting bracket is slid into the rear-most position it measures 26 inches...
view full answer... - Height of Thule 11 Cu Ft Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box 613The Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box part # TH613 measures 10-1/2" tall which is measured from the bottom of the box where it would sit on the crossbars to the top of the lid. Therefore, in order to determine if you'll have clearance simply measure from the top of the crossbars and add 10-1/2".
view full answer... - Is The Thule Alpine Compatible With Factory Crossbars?Yes, the Thule Pulse Alpine Roof Box # TH613 will work with your factory crossbars. It has a clamp design which will hug the left and right side of the crossbar no problem!
view full answer... - Recommended Roof Box For 2011 Subaru Outback With Limited Space Above Roof RackI called my contact at Thule and asked about the roof boxes and where the measurement is made in the description. They told me that the measurement is made as if the box was sitting on a flat table to the highest point on the cargo box. From the measurement you said you have for clearance from the top of your roof rack on your Outback, the Thule Pulse, part # TH613 would be too tall. You would need a box that has a shorter measurement.
view full answer... - Will the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box Part # TH613 Fit a 2011 Volkswagen Jetta w OEM RackI checked with Thule and the Thule Pulse cargo box # TH613 will fit with your 2011 Volkswagen Jetta with factory installed crossbars. The crossbar spread will need to be a minimum of 23-5/8 inches maximum spacing is 35-3/4 inches. If your crossbar spread is between those numbers, the # TH613 will work well for you. See the diagram to the right. The Thule # TH613 has measurements of 88-1/2 x 25-1/2 x 12-1/2 inches which is within the 23-5/8 and 35-3/4 inch spacing needed to fit your 2011...

- Roof Top Cargo Box Orientation Recommendation for Minimum Wind Resistance on Vehicle RoofI would recommend you orientate the Thule Pulse Cargo Box # TH613 as far to the back of the vehicle as you can when installing it on your roof if you are looking for the best aerodynamics. This will reduce air from getting underneath the front of the box while at highway speeds. I attached a review video for this box as well.
view full answer... - Will Thule Pulse Alpine Roof Cargo Box # TH613 Fit 2013 Toyota Rav4 Without Interferring With HatchYes! The Thule Pulse Alpine Cargo box # TH613 will fit your 2013 Toyota Rav4 without interfering with your hatch. When installing this cargo box there are a couple of points to keep in mind. First is that the minimum crossbar spread should be 23-5/8 inches. If your crossbars do not move to accommodate the installation, the attachment points inside the cargo box have an adjustability of about 8 inches. Secondly, this cargo box has a weight capacity of 110 lbs. Either your owners manual...
view full answer... - Will the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box Work on a Subaru CrosstrekYes, the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613 will work on top of a Subaru Crosstrek and it can fit skis up to 210 cm. So, it has plenty of length for your skis as well.
view full answer... - What is Internal Length of Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613I double checked with Thule and the correct interior dimensions for the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613 are the numbers they list on their site of 82.75 × 23.5 × 10.5. It looks like they may have updated them at some point and we didn't make the needed change. I sent an update to have the correct size listed.
view full answer... - Options for an Enclosed Ski and Snowboard CarrierI believe you are looking for an enclosed rooftop ski and snowboard carrier. We carry several different cargo boxes that can hold snowboards and skis and protect them from the elements. I have attached a link to all of our cargo boxes for you to check out. All of the cargo boxes we carry were designed to fit a variety of different crossbars from square and round to elliptical and OEM crossbars. One of our most popular cargo boxes for skis and snowboards is the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop...
view full answer... - Recommendation to Replace Older Thule Summit Rooftop Cargo Box I spoke with my contact at Thule regarding your older Thule Summit Ski/Cargo Box. He stated that this particular model cargo box measured 91 inches long, 13 inches tall, and 17 inches wide. Although a bit wider and just a tad shorter, the closest current equivalent from Thule is with the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613. This is a really nice cargo box that measures 88-1/2 inches long, 25-1/2 inches wide, and 12-1/2 inches tall. It provides 11 cubic feet of carrying capacity...
view full answer... - Does Thule Pulse Alpine Cargo Box Fit Factory Crossbars of 2013 Mazda CX-5Yes I checked with Thule and the Pulse Alpine # TH613 is a confirmed fit for the factory crossbars of your 2013 Mazda CX-5. I attached a review video for this box installed on a similar 2015 CX-5 setup as yours as well.
view full answer... - Will the Thule Pulse Alpine Cargo Box part # TH613 fit Factory Crossbars of a 2015 Ford ExplorerYes, the Thule Pulse Alpine Cargo Box part # TH613 that you referenced comes with everything needed to install onto the factory crossbars of your 2015 Ford Explorer Limited. I attached a review video for you to check out for this box as well.
view full answer... - Will Thule Cargo Box # TH613 Fit 2013 Volkswagen Jetta With Factory CrossbarsIn order to make sure you choose a roof box that will work on your 2013 Volkswagen Jetta, you will need to take a measurement. You will need to know the crossbar spread, or the distance from center to center of the crossbars on you roof. For the Thule Pulse Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box, part # TH613, the minimum crossbar spacing is 23-5/8 inches and the maximum spacing is 35-3/4 inches. If your crossbar spread is between those numbers, the # TH613 will work well for you. I have attached a...

- How To Measure Rear Hatch Clearance From Front Bar With Roof Mounted Cargo BoxesYou want to measure from the middle of the front crossbar to your rear hatch of your 2017 Jeep Cherokee. Use this as a reference when choosing which mounting hole to use on the cargo box. For example, on the Thule Pulse # TH613 you want to have at least 55-1/2 inches of clearance from the center of your front bar to the start of your hatch.
view full answer... - Was Thule TH613 Pulse Alpine Roof Cargo Box Shown In Video on 2013 Subaru Crosstrek Modified to FitThere were no modifications made, as Thule does not recommend making any modifications to the attachment hardware in order to make something fit. The Thule Pulse Alpine roof box, part # TH613 fits crossbar spreads between 23-5/8 and 35-3/4 inches. The Motion Alpine roof box like # TH629506 requires bar spreads between 23-5/8 and 36-7/8 inches. As long as your crossbars can be adjusted so the center to center distance between the front and rear crossbar falls into either range, either...

For the hatch to open fully with the box installed there must be at least 55.25 inches between the front cross bar and the line where the roof and hatch meet.
