Happy to help you get your gear across the country with your family and the best way to do that is with the Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo Box because of how easy it is to use and install while providing more than enough space for your camping gear like sleeping bags. It is also designed with a long trip in mind with its aerodynamic shape that will slice through the wind.
This cargo box, which I confirmed for you will fit your 2014 VW Jetta SportWagen with factory crossbars, has a lid that opens from either side of your car to make it easy to access. And once you open the lid, it stays open until you choose to close it, so you aren't trying to put in or remove gear with one hand while holding the lid open with your other hand.
Installing it on your roof rack is super easy as well; the Force XT simply uses a clamp that grips the sides of your crossbars. You will know when the clamps are tight enough around the crossbars as there will be a very audible click - that's all there is to it.
This cargo box even has a pair of integrated locks to help keep your cargo safe. It is extremely durable as well, so much so that it comes with a lifetime warranty so it will be the last cargo box you ever need to purchase.
The Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo Box is available with two different cargo capacities, 18 Cubic Feet # TH6358B and 22 Cubic Feet # TH6359B.
I have added links to a couple video reviews of this cargo box for you to check out as well.
