Using the Curt Roof Rack and Thule Force XT XL to Carry 2 Golf Bags on a 2020 Subaru Forester
Question:
I have a 2020 Forester with side rails and I want to pack two golf bags of clubs in a roof top carrier. would the Curt Roof Rack Rails work okay and would you recommend the Thule or the Yakima 16 Cu. ft. carrier?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Curt Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails, part # C18118, are an excellent choice for your 2020 Subaru Forester and will work well with a cargo box.
Both the Yakima and Thule boxes will work fine, but I recommend the Thule Force XT XL Rooftop Cargo Box, part # TH6358B. It has 18 cubic feet, giving it more space to accommodate golf bags than a 16 cubic-foot box.
I've linked to a video review of the box below.
