Yakima Roof Basket Review - 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan

Speaker 1: Today on our 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan, we're going to be doing a test fit on the Yakima Off Grid Rooftop Cargo Basket. Part number is Y07138. Now this basket mounts to the roof rack of your vehicle. It's gonna allow you to haul any cargo that doesn't fit inside your vehicle up on top of your roof. As an open basket design, meaning that you'd want to be careful of what you put up there, because they're going to be exposed to the elements, so anything that's sensitive to heat, cold, or water, you probably want to try to keep that inside your vehicle. We have a fairing on the front of our basket. more
