To me the Yakima RocketBox Pro 14, # Y07192, is not only one of Yakimas best boxes, but one of the best boxes that we carry. The reason is because of its shape and features. The box measures 74 inches long by 33 inches wide and despite its size it still has 14 cubic feet of storage space.
The RocketBox also features a simple and easy to use mounting system that clamps around the crossbars rather than using u-bolts to mount them like the Vista XL box. I have included links to the installation details for you.
For me, the ease of use of this box compared to the Vista XL, # SR7018, is well worth the extra money.
