I ordered the Force XT L for my 22 Blazer. Haven’t received it yet to see the fit. This video definitely helped on perspective of what to expect. Keep up your positivity and energy! Thanks again!
I have a 2024 Honda Pilot Sport and I thunk that the Force XT would be a good choice. As you mentioned they seem to be very well made and the added storage space would be great for camping. I have ordered a set of crossbars that use the OEM mounting points and I'm assuming that even the larger box will fit on them. Thank you for the excellent video!
You do need to really take into account on what you plan on using it for, what items you plan on putting in there, how it will fit on your vehicle, are you able to lift it yourself or with help. And lastly one of the biggest factor is how are you going to store it. And like mentioned, take into consideration of the the shape of the box. The aerodynamic Thules often starts sloping downwards from midsection to the front. It will greatly be a hindrance on larger items. Could mean a difference for example two carry on luggages and three and four. I have a Yakima Skybox 21 and it doesn't start to slope till pretty far forward which gives me more useable space to work with for larger items. Thule has one about the same cubic feet as the Yakima but that slope made it limiting. Nice looking box, but I need functionality. New is nice. But I bought mine used. Saved a lot of money and I wont cry as much if it gers gets scratched. The gloss Thules look nice but it is gonna look ugly as heck once you get scratches on it.
I destroyed my Thule motion with a height restricted car park to lol. Drove forward and quickly reversed back out. It was the reversing that did the damage lol
You are so welcome. I didn’t see a review like this before I did it, and I had looked for a good one. I hoped it would also help others! Thanks for watching and posting.
I have 2022 Honda pilot trailsport im thinking of buying that thule and the one you put on the back of your pilot. whats the name of that? your cross bar is it also from thule?
I just did a review on the best cross bars on the market, check that out on this channel. They have Amazon Links for 2017-2022 and 2023-2027. Also Thule Force XT XL. Thanks for watching!! Links in Description of the Thule review as well in description. Blessings
Thanks for the video and energy in explaining it. It is just a preference. I like the Motion XT better. One thing to consider when going with XXL size is the distance between the rear crossbar and the trunk door when opened. I read a comment from one guy, complaining that the XXL size is interfering with his Grand Cherokee trunk when opened.
This guys energy is on a different level. Great video 👍
Thanks for watching buddy! You need to get one of these toppers! Have a great week!
QVC will be calling.
Honestly this is a better video than the companies who are actually sell them. You made a video about a box actually exciting. Thumbs up !
…he needs an Emmy
When spending this much on a roof box for your car this energy helps! Great content, thanks!

Great video, it literally answered all the questions I had regarding the two!

Good video. Now what I'd like to see is someone putting different size luggage in the carrier. Show what fits and what doesn't.
How much expresso did you drink before this video.
Love the video and your energy, ❤

Ouch, costly mistake. Yikes!!! So sorry!! Thanks for sharing.
Great review Matt, thanks. Pulling the trigger on something soon for our 2013 Pilot.
We ended up with the Force XL 18’ it has been half way around the country with us. Rain & snow, performs like a champ.
Moving to Mount juliet from NY and was looking into one for my Outback. The motion also has reinforced base adding rigidity and strength
Hope you get one, we love ours! ❤️
Excellent review my friend!
Thanks for the very detailed video! It's being very useful. I'm buying one to our family SUV

Enjoy my friend!!
Where’d you buy, I’m looking for a store that has them on display?
Sorry friend no stores I’ve ever seen. Free returns with Amazon if you don’t love!
…Tampa Florida Rack Attack & other Tampa stores. Put Thule locations in google maps
Thanks for the video and energy in explaining it.

Thule force xt or Yakima skybox?
Where can I find cu in boxes? I need one for my hotwheels
….Barbie & Ken have one
I have the motion xt xl. And the gloss has chipped off and looks terrible now. Otherwise, it works fantastic. Just needs a lick or 2 of paint.
Was all set to order the Motion glossy for my Subaru, but I looked down the street at a neighbors Motion I see that %60 of the gloss has delaminated
On someting?
Does a Thule Motion allow fitting in a full size luggage bag?
👍👍
I bought the thule force xxl for my 2017 Honda Pilot . It will hit the Tailgate. Too bad that the pilot tailgate is not programable
Matt your awesome and funny 😆 too
great video Matt
Love the hair cut bro, you look Alpha Male tough. Thanks for watching. Blessings Matt
Did you get the OEM crossbar from Honda?
No, we ended up getting them from Amazon. Looks identical!

In the title of this video is the question 18cu in or 22cu in? I think you're way off on your measurements, just saying.
