Question:

Does this work while a cargo box like the Skybox 16 installed on a Subaru outback using crossbars?

Expert Reply:

Yep, the Kelty Waypoint awning will definitely work with a rooftop cargo box like the Thule Force XT L # TH6357B.

You'd have to lift up the back of the box for a second to quickly get the strap around the crossbar so you can tighten it, but that's it as far as getting it to work with a cargo box. So this is a really simple, inexpensive way to get some shade at the rear of your Subaru, and the awning is also available in your choice of colors:

- Olive Drab and Dark Gray: Kelty Waypoint Car Awning # KE33TR

- Dark Teal and Orange: Kelty Waypoint Car Awning # KE53TR
