Roof Cargo Box Comparison Yakima Rocketbox Pro 14 vs Thule Pulse TH614
Question:
I would like to know what are the biggest differences between the Yakima Rocketbox Pro 14 and Thule Pulse 614? Pros and cons? I am searching for a cargo box to fit my factory mazda cx-5 2015 bars.

The Yakima Rocketbox Pro 14 part # Y07192 and the Thule Pulse # TH614 are both really great cargo boxes but the better option is the Yakima as it can open from either side whereas the Pulse only opens from the passenger side. Also, the Yakima RocketBox uses 4 interior cargo straps to secure gear in the box, while the Thule box only uses two straps.
In general I prefer the mounting hardware style of the Rocketbox as well since it's a bit easier to get into place on crossbars. I also attached review videos for both boxes for you to check out as well.
