I just purchased one of these over the weekend and completely fell in love with it on the first trip to Lake Tahoe. I originally wanted to go with the Skybox 16. My friend had one installed on his Audi A3. When I purchased my BMWX3 I knew I would have garage clearance issues if I went with a cargo box. I was tired of putting wet and dirty snowboard equipment in my trunk space and knew I had to get a cargo box to enjoy my weekends away. Low and behold, Yakima releases this extra low wonder. I snagged the last one at my local rack store. I did hesitate with the price at first. However, being able to park in your garage with the roof car box is priceless. This box is the widest box Yakima offers, so don't expect to install anything else on top unless you have some really long cross bars. Also this box is really quiet on the wind noise. I have experienced many different setups for roof top cargos, and by far this is one of the quietest without the need of any modifications (fairings/strings/bungie/etc).

My town has a very poor selection for roof racks and boxes. I was really looking to find something that would hold my 6 snowboards and still pull into the garage. My previous setup was a powder hound 4 board rack and a cheap no name holder that held 2 boards but scared me to use. After looking around on the internet I did not see anything about it on a Pathfinder, and very little with real world use. I was a leery of ordering this online but I measured everything out and went for it. Thankfully Amazon Prime gave me free shipping.

Pros:
I can still pull into the garage!
Better gas milage
less wind noise
equipment does not freeze on the ride to the mountain
i'm always sure the equipment is secure
Easy to install
Cons:
Price
a little flappy in the wind.

A bit disappointed for the price. When closed it rattles a bit; not the highest quality. I would have preferred a Thule, but they do not make a LoPro model (11.5 high), which allows me to have the unit on top of the Highlander SUV, and still drive into the garage. This was a high priority, and the LoPro was the only one I could find. Overall, quite pleased. Would have given it 5 stars except for the "rattle when locked" problem.
