Yakima SkinnyWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket Review - 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 - Y07014- Video
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Yakima Skinny Warrior Rooftop Basket on our 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. Adding a rooftop basket to your ladder rack or roof of your vehicle is gonna help solve the issue of getting additional cargo space without using any existing area. So you're using a negative space on top of your bed with your ladder racks to get those bigger, bulkier items out on the road with you. What's special about the Skinny Warrior is the fact that it's more narrow so it doesn't take up the entire space of your crossbars. So you can add a kayak carrier, an enclosed rooftop box, or any rooftop accessory. The way that it's constructed is based off of using powder coated stainless steel that's gonna hold up against the elements out on the road. more
