I would be more than happy to compare the Thule Force XT XXL # TH6359B and Yakima CBX # Y86FR roof cargo boxes for your 2021 Toyota Sequoia! I would like to preface this answer by saying that both are high-end roof cargo boxes that you will be very happy with no matter which way you go.

Although I really like both boxes, I recommend going with the Yakima CBX simply because it has some upgraded features that make it easier to use and the design of the box is newer so it matches better with the contour of your Sequoia.

The Thule Force XT XXL has larger carrying capacity but the CBX has a larger handle for opening the box and the system used for mounting the cargo box is upgraded so that you the knob doesn't stay in the box. This means it won't be sticking up so you'll have more of a flat surface inside your box.

I'm attaching review videos of each box for you to check out.
