Thule Sonic XXL Rooftop Cargo Box Review - 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek- Video
Today, on a 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek, we'll be testing in the Thule Sonic XXL Rooftop Cargo Box measuring 22 cubic feet in metalic silver part number TH636S with the Thule Aeroblade roof rack system assembled onto our vehicle. We'll begin our test fit by removing our rear antenna. We're just moving it, that way we don't accidentally hit it and bend it or cause damage to it. We'll grab our Thule Sonic XXL and place it on to our roof rack. Please keep in mind that for today's video, our box will be skewed as far forward as possible, that way we can reattach our rear antenna and gain full access to our rear hatch. Since the feet are already hanging on the bottom of the box, we can adjust them as necessary to fit around our little bars while placing the box onto our roof rack. more
