Roof Rack and Cargo Box Recommendations for a 2024 Chevy Equinox

Question:

Hello, I have a 2024 chevy equinox bare roof. Im looking for a roof rack and roof top cargo carrier to use for camping so it would need to be durable and waterproof. Ill likely keep that rails on all the time so something that is quiet will be important. Do you have any recommendations for both the rails and cargo carrier? Thanks so much!

Hey Rob, thanks for reaching out!

I really like the Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack System # TH93AG combined with the Yakima SkyBox NX 18 Rooftop Cargo Box # Y45AV for your 2024 Chevy Equinox naked roof, because they are both really simple to install and they will compliment the design of your vehicle.

Both the Thule and Yakima brands are higher-end product lines so you can be confident that you'll be getting kits that will live up to the potential. I will say that none of the roof cargo boxes are "waterproof", rather they are weatherproof. If the box was to be submerged then water would get in, but for a nicer box like the SkyBox NX 18 the only way that some water may get into the box is if you're driving in a really bad storm with a lot of rain and high winds.
