Yakima SkinnyWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket Review - 2022 Mazda CX-9

Hey everybody, Cooper here at etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Yakima SkinnyWarrior on our 2022 Mazda CX-9. Now the SkinnyWarrior is a perfect opportunity to carry around maybe some of those larger items like skis or snowboards, or if you're picking up some dirtier items like mulch or fertilizer and you don't wanna keep that inside your car and potentially have it get dirty. Our basket is going to be made out of a durable steel construction, just meaning that any of the points here on the basket are gonna make good tie down points and we don't have to worry about any of it bending like we would if it was aluminum. That being said, we do have a black powder coat finish just to help the steel be very corrosion resistant. But if there does end up being any scratches or scuffs in any areas, that those areas are going to become pretty prone to that corrosion. more

Flint Hill Goods Roof Cargo Basket Review - 2022 Mazda CX-9

Hey, everybody. Cooper here at etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Flint Hill Goods rooftop cargo basket on our 2022 Mazda CX-9.

Curt Roof Cargo Basket Review - 2022 Mazda CX-9

Hey everybody, Cooper here at etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket on our 2022 Mazda CX9. Now, a rooftop cargo basket like this is going to have a perfect opportunity to maybe carry around some of those larger items like skis or snowboards or some of those messier items, like mulch or fertilizer that you don't wanna necessarily dirty up the inside of your car. This one especially does have some tall walls, so I would say stuff like maybe luggage would be a little more secure in here, knowing that it is kind of sitting further down, recessed into the basket. Our basket is going to take up a majority of our 50-inch crossbar spread, but I think that's more than perfectly acceptable for something like this. Usually the purpose of it is to max out the available space on top of your roof to carry around some additional items. more
