Limited lifetime warranty About Thule
To say that Thule’s beginnings in the U.S. were humble would be an understatement. Founding member Ake Skeppner sold products at windsurf competitions on the New England shoreline, exhibited the product line at a number of different trade shows, and even canvassed local retailers in the greater New York area, all from his "office"--a now-famous station wagon. Initial success was found in the small but growing sport of windsurfing where a strong, reliable roof rack was an indispensable piece of equipment. This was quickly followed by success in the ski business where Thule's Swedish heritage certainly helped the product gain rapid acceptance. By the mid-1980s, the company sold products directly to ski and windsurfing shops but sold through distributors to address the large and growing bike business. A risky decision was made to terminate these distributor relationships and sell direct to retailers through a network of independent sales representatives. Much of the company's market success today can be traced to that decision. Shortly after, Ake hired an engineer and set up a small assembly plant in Elmsford, New York in order to design and manufacture bike carriers that would offer the features demanded by the U.S. consumer and compete effectively with other racks on the market. The company has since grown rapidly through product innovation, a commitment to quality, and the continuance of a strong entrepreneurial spirit as well as continuing to evolve their products to meet the needs of users.

rooftop cargo box
no windnoise when mounted on our safari mini-van. I wish I could have had a way to estimate the size better I would have bought the next size bigger.The carrior has held up fine at 80mph traveling through the western states fully loaded. Maybe 1-2 mpg fuel loss even at 75+mph. Easy mounting but when attached to factory rails fully loaded the metal clamp touches the top of the van roof so I put a piece of weather strip foam under the clamp and that kept any potential scratches off the top of the roof. Very nice product! Rating:

cheap plastic parts
We only used it 4 times when these cheap plastic cradle cap parts broke. You have to order new ones from Thule's website. I don't think something I pay $500 for should break after 4 uses and then I have to pay to fix it. Rating:

Great cargo carrier
Absolutely great carrier. Being able to open from either side was more valuable than I thought it'd be. It was large enough to put our large stroller, bike carrier, lawn chairs, folding chairs, and plenty of miscellaneous tools and outdoor toys. I had a few issues tryign to guess if my cargo would fit or not, and had to re-adjust a few times to get the lid closed. Also, make sure you tighten and retighten all the clamps a few times.
The wind noise was barely noticed. All in all I'd recommend to anyone who has a vehicle big enough for it. Rating:

You Can Never Have Enough Travel Storage
Great carrier. Just took the first trip with it from Winchester VA to Hatteras and it did great. I checked the clamps upon arrival in Hatteras and they were still secure. Although I wanted the larger model this model works the best on a Suburban with a sun roof. (Yes, I measured before buying.) I was also able to put it on the roof mounts by myself (adjust your cross rails to the desired mounting location, open the mounting clamps and put it on).
The recommended load capacity is 110 lbs. I put small carry bags and all the little things you take to the beach in it to free up space for the heavy luggage (and cooler!) in the rear of the vehicle. Amazon had the best overall price thanks to their shipping special on this item. Thanks Amazon! Rating:

Great buy
This is very sturdy, looks good, and was extremely easy to attach to the crossbars on the roof of my Land Rover. My only concern is that this has to be locked with a key at all times. Normally this is no problem, but make sure you have your keys with you when you are loading or unloading. |
