Recommended Cargo Box and Surfboard Carrier for 2018 Subaru Forester
Question:
Hello, we have a 2018 Forester with factory installed side rails and crossbars. Would like to get a cargo box to put on top and also be able to put a wide surfboard up on the roof at same time. Is there a set up that supports a cargo box and surfboard on the forester? thank you.

Expert Reply:
I do have both cargo boxes and surf board carriers that can be used on a 2018 Subaru Forester. That said, you won't be able to do both as there just simply isn't enough room, especially with a factory roof rack. The Yakima GrandTour Rooftop Cargo Box part # YA74FR is one of the best roof boxes you can get and then for a surfboard carrier I recommend the Inno Board Locker Surfboard Carrier part # INA744.
