Will the Yakima SkyBox 21 Fit My 2017 Ford Explorer with My Panoramic Sunroof?
Question:
I like this product and wish to know is it compatible with my vehicle, it has factory cross rails eliptical shaped. Open to other suggestions, looking for most cubic feet available in a cargo box. Your help and guidance is appreciated. Need the product for a planned trip the week of July 5th.

I have a great solution for you. I went ahead and checked the compatibility of the Yakima SkyBox 21 Rooftop Cargo Box # Y07337 and your 2017 Ford Explorer and confirmed that the SkyBox 21 is not compatible with your vehicle. With that being said, a great alternative is the Thule Force XT XXL Rooftop Cargo Box - 22 cu ft - Black AeroSkin # TH6359B. The Force XT XXL will allow you to access the rear hatch on your 2017 Ford Explorer, and the Force XT XXL is also compatible with the dimensions of your factory aero bars. In addition, the Force XT XXL comes with 2 locks (just like the Skybox 21) and an additional cubit foot of cargo space.
