Deal Details
REI has Yakima SkyBox 16 Carbonite 16 Cubic Ft. Cargo Roof Box for $486.79. Select free store pickup where available.

Thanks to Community Member Brett19648 for sharing this deal.

Features:
  • Engineered with a specialized dimple-textured Carbonite lid matrix that mimics aerodynamic surfaces to significantly lower high-speed wind resistance, damp highway whistling, and protect your vehicle's fuel economy (MPG).
  • Features an incredibly practical dual-sided opening layout that lets you load, organize, or unload your outdoor equipment safely from whichever side of the vehicle is closest to the curb or campsite trail.
  • Employs Yakima's signature high-security SuperLatch™ interface, a specialized safety mechanism that physically captures and holds onto your key until the lid is completely and uniformly locked to the bottom base.
  • Reinforced with structural internal lid stiffener panels combined with heavy-duty metal support bars inside the base, adding structural rigidity to stop the box from warping or wobbling under highway wind loads.
  • Backed by Yakima's Limited Lifetime Manufacturer Warranty

It comes in a different box. So you really get 2 boxes. $250 per.

I have one of these that must be over 15 years old and gets used once or twice a year. It holds up well.

I have a Yakima (similar one) for over 10 years now. I lift it on the minivan on my own but it is tricky, 2 people will be easier but one person can do it. The key is to make sure the 4 latches underneath are open placed in the right position when lift up ready to be latched on the top bars. I also like the key aspect, you must close the lid properly in order for the key to be released.

Lookup a solution called 'flated'. I have one and you can definitely get two people in it 😄

Does this come with the roof bars or is that a separate purchase?

The crossbars are a separate buy.

A year ago, when REI had a deal like this, they just canceled any online orders for it after the deal ended and said they messed up inventory. I hope that's not the case for anyone trying to buy now, but I ended up getting an even better deal from a guy in Boston off FB marketplace for his barely used one. Also, lots of people looking for REI alternatives with their anti-union activity.

What do people put in these ? Are they running out of room in the back of their vehicle?

It all depends on their circumstances I'd say. For us, we travel with our dog most places, so we have one of these to allow her to have an unobstructed cargo area to chill.
