tsarty17 Posted June 23, 2015 at 04:04 PM Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 at 04:04 PM So the trunk space finally got me to break down and get racks. Too often I find myself driving my truck for things I can't fit in the trunk. I went to my local outdoor store and got the Thule aeroblade racks, locks, and the force alpine box.$1,049 out the door with free install. The fitment kit is on order, I'll post pics once installed. Anyone else using a box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexracer Posted June 23, 2015 at 11:41 PM Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 at 11:41 PM Not here, but tempting as we got a box for the wifes car, so just need the cross bars/adapter stuff. But then again anytime I need that much space, can just take her car... lonzo71 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsarty17 Posted June 26, 2015 at 03:09 AM Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 at 03:09 AM My gf and I share vehicles (I have the fusion energi and an 08 f350). The 350 has a blown motor and I'm a contractor so I need a truck at least once a week. She however was nice enough to buy a 250 diesel 7.3 that I get to use whenever I want and we just trade. I thought having the box would really help carrying stuff and wouldn't have to take the truck as often. I ended up not getting the force box as I read some bad reviews of it and I found the hyper XL on Craigslist. It was brand new as the guy won it and never used it and got it for $600. I was stoked as its $1000 normally. All goes on tomorrow. I'll take a picture and post it. lonzo71 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsarty17 Posted June 27, 2015 at 09:33 PM Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 at 09:33 PM Got it all on. I really like the look and will be really nice to be able to carry stuff. Plus the box is huge but still enough room to fit a bike rack or lumber beside it. Curious to see what my mpg drops to lonzo71 and Wolfgang57 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
