Thule Roof Basket Review - 2017 Kia Soul

Today on our 2017 Kia Soul, we're going to test fitting the Thule Canyon XT roof cargo basket, part number TH859XT. The Thule Canyon XT is great for carrying your camping gear, your luggage, sporting goods equipment, anything you want to keep out from the inside, or to free up more space on the inside. It measures 49 inches long, by 40 inches wide, and by six inches tall at the highest point. It comes with the farring 00:00:24 unit already installed, and that coupled with the aerodynamic design of the cargo basket itself, you're going to cut down on wind noise and drag while you're driving. With the placement of the rack, you're not going to have to remove the antennae at all. Plus, it's not going to interfere at all with your rear hatch, as there's plenty of clearance between the two. Now that we've gone over some of the features, let's go ahead and show you it installs. We already have three of our U-bolts installed around the rack, let's go ahead and show you this last one here, on the passenger side.



Curt Roof Basket Review - 2017 Kia Soul

Today on our 2017 Kia Soul we're gonna be test fitting the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, part number C18115. The Curt Cargo Basket is great for carrying your luggage, your sporting goods equipment, or your camping gear and keeping it out of your vehicle. It measures 41 1/2 inches long by 37 inches wide by 4 inches high and has a carrying capacity of 150 pounds although always double check with your vehicle's manual to make sure it can withstand that weight on the roof. At the rear here we're not gonna have any issues of clearance between our hatch and the cargo basket itself. Now that we've gone over some of the features of the cargo basket, let's go ahead and show you how it installs. Now we have three of the legs already installed onto it, and at the back here we'll go ahead and show this one. Now at the top portion of our connection, just line it up and push it up into place like so.



Surco Products Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2017 Kia Soul

Today on our 2017 Kia Soul we're going to be test fitting the 20 by 48 Surco cargo carrier for 1-1/4" hitches, part number 52017. Now this has a 300 pound carrying capacity. It also has this mesh floor here in the bottom which makes it easy to clean. We have this railing all the way around the cargo carrier, which can be used for your tie down straps or your bungee cords. I'm going to go ahead and give you a couple quick measurements now. Measuring from the edge of the bumper to our outer point here, we've added about 23-1/2" to the rear of the vehicle. The ground clearance is going to be about 10".



Surco Products Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2016 Kia Soul

Today on this 2016 Kia Soul, we're going to be test fitting the 20 x 48 Surco Cargo Carrier, part number 52017. This has a carrying capacity of 300 pounds and has a nice mesh floor, which makes it easy to clean. It also has this rail all the way around the cargo carrier, and you can use that as a tie-down point for either your ratchet straps or your bungee cords. I'm going to go ahead and give you some measurements now. Staring from the edge of the bumper to our outer edge here, we've added about 23-1/2 inches to the rear of the vehicle. The ground clearance to this edge here is going to be about 9-1/2 inches, and our closest point to this edge here is going to be about 2 inches. Then, from the center of the hitch pinhole to our edge here is going to be about 6 inches, so if you have different hitches for this vehicle, from the center of the hitch pinhole out, that's how far it's going to stick out. Also, the exhaust on this vehicle is going to be on the passenger side, but it does face down and is about 11-1/2 inches to our cargo carrier itself, so just keep it in mind maybe put some more of your heat-sensitive materials over to the driver side. Now, with it in this position, we do have full access to our rear hatch to get whatever we need. However, I'm going to go ahead and give you a break-over point measurement, and that's going to be the point where whatever it is you're hauling will come into contact with your rear hatch.
