Can Rightline Sport 3XL Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S30 Fit Vehicles Without Roof Crossbars  

Question:

Expert Reply:

Yes, the Rightline Sport 3 XL Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S30, among its other virtues, offers the flexibility to mount on just about any type of vehicle roof, even those without side-to-side roof crossbars. You don't have to worry about the expense or hassle of installing a roof rack to use this great cargo bag.

The included straps on the 3XL will attach directly to your Toyota Highlander's front-to-back roof side rails. No crossbars needed.

Other attributes that make this cost-effective rooftop cargo bag so useful include it's light weight - less than 10-lbs - which means more of your vehicle's roof weight rating is still available for your loaded cargo. Other rooftop cargo items like ABS-plastic cargo boxes can weigh upwards of 50-lbs even when empty, so a lightweight fabric type bag means that very little of the vehicle's roof weight capacity is wasted by the cargo carrier itself. I suggest a review of your vehicle owner's manual to confirm its rooftop cargo weight rating.

The Rightline Sport 3XL also features 600-denier waterproof construction with watertight double-sealed bag seams that are sewn, not glued, and the bag can be locked thanks to slots on the zipper pulls. It comes with a storage sack. Since the fabric bag is flexible it can to a degree adapt to the shape of your loaded cargo. The linked video will fully illustrate the great features included in this product.

Often folks that use a rooftop cargo solution also choose a handy (or should I say footy?) accessory, a tire step like # HE4040 comes fully assembled and simply slips over a rear tire to provide a height advantage for loading and unloading cargo. It features a 400-lb capacity, non-slip step surface and it folds up for easy storage inside the vehicle.
