Question:

I just purchased from you the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack - 54inch Long - Black for my 2016 Acura MDX. My only question is if it is safe to attach a 18 cf storage box onto the rack?

Helpful Expert Reply:

For your 2016 Acura MDX with the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK400 installed you could pretty easily carry a larger 18 cubic foot cargo box but you would just need to be sure to stay under the weight capacity of the roof rack (165 lbs), and the roof capacity of your vehicle that is listed in the owners manual.

The Sportrack Vista XL part # SR7018 would fit the crossbar spread of your roof rack and would work well. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.
