Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box - 16 cu ft - Matte Black
This was purchased off of the etrailer.com website as a "damaged" item at a significantly reduced price. The description on the website described the damage very well and the cargo box has no functional issues of any kind. Also, the cargo box arrived much earlier than I anticipated. Furthermore, when I noticed that the box arrived with the load securing straps missing I emailed etrailer customer support and they had Thule send me two new ones right away. Couldn't be more pleased with etrailer and this cargo box. It fits my 2014 Honda CRV with factory crossbars with just a little bit of rear hatch interference (restricts opening by maybe an inch or two, but can still fully use the rear hatch). Can't speak to durability quite yet as I've only used the cargo box a few times to transport skis and snowboard and plan to use it year-round for road trips. A really great, simple cargo box!
This was a much needed addition for a drive back to Tucson, AZ from a three month stay in Portland. ME, as we had acquired some extra things and needed more space than our 2015 Honda CRV provided. This fit on top of the rhino vortex aero roof rack I also purchased from e-trailer perfectly. The cargo box functioned as expected, and although we ultimately could have used a slightly larger cargo box, this one worked great for giving us extra space in our car for the drive home. It was easy to mount and opened easily, although it was a bit tricky to load, a step ladder would have helped. It was tough to close, we had to move some stuff around to get it to latch, but I appreciated that it would not lock unless the latches could fully engage, which made me feel like it was going to remain closed while traveling. We wasted no time putting stickers on it, and added more along the drive home, which was fun. We traveled through many different types of weather, it was late spring and was rainy in the beginning of our trip, and very hot towards the end of our trip, and the contents were in perfect condition when we arrived home. There was zero water damage inside, and nothing was damaged from being in the heat. Of course there was some reduced gas mileage and added road noise when traveling, but nothing too unbearable. Also, service and shipping from etrailer was excellent.

Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box - 22 cu ft - Black Glossy
Exceeded my expectations. We have this mounted on a chevy suburban, we replaced a 15 year old 16 sq fr. rocket box that was just worn out. The Thule is easy to mount on the stock crossbars, super easy to open and close, and makes no noticeable wind noise. It's built very well. Only reason we didn't get the XXL was it would be too tall for our cabin garage, so make sure you measure your space wisely! Would purchase again, I've been a Yakima guy for years but I think I'm switching brands!!
What our customers are saying:
"Nice! You did a fine job on procesing by order. You made sugesstions on which items would best serve my purpose, without trying to sell me something I did not want. Very good communication skills. I will be looking for a Cargo Carrier after I get my Hitch installed. I will pass the word about your company. Good expience, will do more in the future. Thanks, Mike"
