Got my cargo box in and put it on last night for cars and coffee. A little taller than I envisioned for the look of the car but I'd actually like to be able to use it for stuff. Does this fit the vision of the wagoneers?

I'm impressed by the cargo box so far. I can't hear it at all even at 60mph. It is a Inno Shadow 16. It does lack the easy clamping systems of Yakima and Thule, but given the clearance for the cross bars, they probably wouldn't have worked for me anyways.

We'll done! Having lived in the Rockies half my life, there just seems to be something "missing whenever I see a wagon without some type of roof rack. I think it's even considered a pullover offense in some counties to not have one...

I had the idea one weekened to put the 6' roof box on my Mini, but I couldn't adjust the towers narrow enough (bars are a little rusted) to fit on the Mini's gutters.

Excellent! I "heart" box. Haven't had mine on for a little though, damn thing makes it so I can't open my rear hatch a usable amount.

Your car was a hit today at Katie's.... I overheard people talking about it. "It's got over 500hp. . . and a ski rack . How cool is that?"

Your car. It is driving sex.

V wagon? I set it to 3/4 opening and adjusted the clearances that way.

Nice! I'm surprised ppl got there so early.... Like I've mentioned in the Jalopnik email thread, we should all meet up. I have no idea who is who and I usually go there solo. Car buddies have dwindled over the years honestly.
