Cargo boxes protect gear from weather and theft; baskets handle bulky, dirty loads with easier access. Choose for the cargo you carry most.
What to Look For
- Choose a box for clean, weather-sensitive luggage and quiet highway travel.
- Choose a basket for coolers, bins, and oversized outdoor equipment.
- Check hatch clearance and crossbar spacing before purchase.
- Secure every item with rated straps and recheck after driving.
Plan the Rest of Your Setup
Think through transport, storage, maintenance, and the conditions you will actually face. A product that fits your routine is more useful than one with impressive specifications you never use.
Browse the roof racks collection at Outpost Gears, compare the published specifications, and choose the option that matches your trip.
