Question:
Would a large rooftop cargo box help streamline and move the wind up and over an enclosed cargo trailer? Honda Odyssey and 6 x 10 by 6 foot inside height cargo trailer. Looking for a way to keep the air from directly hitting the front of the trailer. Trailer is a flat front and does not have a nose cone. Thanks

Using a Rooftop Cargo Box # Y07334 would only provide a slight reduction in wind resistance since the box is only 24" wide. A better solution would be to use a Fairing # Y05019. This particular fairing is 52" wide and will attach to round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars. If your Honda Odyssey does not have a roof rack we can help you find one or you can look at a universal option like the SeaSucker # SEA66VR. This roof rack would allow you to easily move the fairing forward and back on the roof of your van to optimize the airflow over your cargo trailer.
