Luggage Carrying Options for a Buick Rendezvous Without a Roof Rack or Bars
Question:
My Buick Rendezvous does not have a roof rack or any bars. Do you have a product I can secure to my roof safely to haul luggage and other items?

Expert Reply:
You'll be looking for a roof bag that is compatible with a naked roof. These will connect either inside the vehicle with a clip or to the door jamb of the vehicle to provide a temporary rooftop storage solution.
I recommend Rightline Gear's Ace Junior, part # RL100A50 as a great, small option that installs to your door jamb. It adds about 9 cubic feet of storage to the roof of your vehicle, and at 36 inches by 30 inches, it's small enough to be carried off the vehicle into the house.
If you need a larger bag, the Gear Sport 2, part # RL100S20 provides 15 cubic feet.
I've included a video review of both of these bags so you can get an idea of their features and performance.
