Comments about Thule Crossroad Railing Foot Pack:
We purchased a new 08 Subaru Outback and I don't trust the factory crossbars. Picked up a set of Thule Crossroad 450 footpack & some crossbars. Very sturdy, installs in less than 15min. All tools necessary are included.
Only complaint, there is a small gap between the locking strap and the body of the foot where wind whistles through. Would be remedied with the installation of a fairing.

Comments about Thule Crossroad Railing Foot Pack:
Easy to install, fits my 50" crossbars and carriers I bought 13 years ago...
...only thing I didn't take into account, was the carriers would impede the opening of the hatchback...
...fixed this by turning them around so they hang out over the front of my impreza...no problem.
Overall this is a great product...

Comments about Thule Crossroad Railing Foot Pack:
Excellent solid fit for adding crossbars to Ford Flex raised rails. Was able to use 78" Thule rectangular bars easily on Ford Flex.

Comments about Thule Crossroad Railing Foot Pack:
I use the Thule Crossroad set with the 50in square bars on a Chevy HHR. The Crossroad "feet" secure very well to the factory rails, I thought it would be a little shaky but it wasn't at all. With the rails/bars installed, it is only slightly louder on the highway than normal but I honestly was expecting the noise to be worse. (obviously, the HHR is not the most aerodynamic vehicle and it has it's fair share of road noise naturally.) I have noticed about 1mpg decrease for highway fuel economy with the racks installed (and no bikes on it) but nothing that bothers me. I expect it to decrease further once we get the bikes up top, but I prefer this option over our carbon forks rubbing together on a hitch rack.

Comments about Thule Crossroad Railing Foot Pack:
I prefer not to drive with my roof racks on unless I'm actually using them.
These are disappointing because:
- They take a long time to put on
- My extra long bars slide when they are not affixed to the bars on my car.(there doesn't seem to be a way to keep the feet stable on the bars when they are not tightened down to the vehicle.)
- It takes a long time to put them away, since you have screw it down again after removing it, or risk loosing the center caps for the feet.
I haven't used them yet, and I'm sure they'll be fine functionally, but I'm not pleased with how time consuming and fiddly they are.
