Roof top mounted cargo boxes aren't rated for serious offroading. The roof capacity of your vehicle isn't either. If you were close to the roof capacity of your vehicle with the weight of the cargo you had on the roof of your vehicle, and you hit any large bumps at speed you would not only damage the cargo box but you would also potentially damage the roof of your vehicle.
However, you were just taking it easy without hitting any major bumps there's no reason you couldn't use carry a... view full answer...
There are a few fit concerns when it comes to roof cargo boxes. The main concerns are the roof rack crossbars and rear hatch clearance. The Yakima Skybox NX 16, # Y95AV, will fit on virtually any roof rack, so this shouldn't be a concern unless you have a significantly larger aftermarket roof rack. The SkyBox NV 16 will fit crossbars up to 3-1/2 inches wide by 1-11/16 inches tall.
Since roof cargo boxes are not tested on specific vehicles, the best way to answer the question about rear... view full answer...

From my research your 2018 Toyota RAV4 can carry up to 101.9 pounds on the factory roof rack. That may be oddly specific but it's what Toyota states as the maximum. So you need to make sure the roof box you choose and everything in it doesn't exceed 101.9 pounds.

To determine if your 2014 Santa Fe Lux with the panoramic sunroof and dealer-installed roof crossbars has sufficient capacity to transport your canoe you'll need to check a couple of weights.

Vehicle and roof rack weight ratings are static ratings but they will always have the safety margin necessary to account for the wind drag from items mounted on them.
What you want to ensure is that the total combined weight of your roof rack, the roof carrier and its contents all together remains within the vehicle's stated roof weight capacity. Generally roof rack makers rate their racks based on the capacity of the host vehicle's roof but it is still a good idea to check your owner's... view full answer...

I checked 2 different sources for the factory roof rack capacity of your 2014 Chevy Tahoe. One said 150 pounds and the other said 164 pounds. I prefer to err on the side of caution so I recommend sticking to 150 pounds. There also might be a sticker on the roof rack itself that lists the capacity.
The SkyBox # Y95AV weighs 48 pounds that that leaves 104 pounds of cargo that you could put in the box. I have linked a video of the larger SkyBox just to show the features of the SkyBox line... view full answer...
