Hello again
Just a thought, I forgot to mention the main reason I went with the Thule versus the Yakima Box, The Thule box has a Nose that is more aerodynamic. ( gas cost enough).
both brands look great, and serve there purpose well!
Ill post some pictures one of these days.
Awesome, thanks for your help. I'm like most people, meaning that I want the most spacious box, that looks the best, but also cost the least AND has the best aerodynamics!
Unfortunately, that doesn't exist. I dont mind buying things new (Bought the OB new!), but for something that will be used only occasionally, I'd rather find a gently used one. I will probably keep an eye out on craigslist and see if I can get lucky on a nicely priced cargo box in good condition. If I dont find one before our next trip, I may end up just buying one that I think I would like new.
I guess one question I havent asked, is what would you guys recommend for size (cubic feet)? We wouldnt be using for skis (No snow in Alabama!). At the moment, It wold be my wife and I along with our 1 year old and a dog. Maybe plan a weeks worth of stuff. Minimum size recommendations? When does it become too big for practicality (I would like to be able to install and remove by myself or with some help from my wife)?
