The perfect addition to any vehicle!

4 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Thule Force 3 is the perfect addition to our Toyota 4Runner! The delivery was fast, and the installation was a breeze. The trickiest part for me was positioning the box just right—I prefer to have it centered on the roof, as we often access gear from both sides depending on the situation. The XL size is a great fit for an SUV. Due to the design of our crossbars, we did need to shift the box back a bit further than we initially wanted, which prevents the trunk from opening fully. However, this is entirely our choice, and I don't fault Thule for this minor issue. We took the roof box on a skiing trip right away, and it held our 4 skis and poles with ease! It’s been a game-changer for freeing up space inside the car. While the box does make a bit of noise once we hit 70mph, it's nothing that bothers us. Overall, I highly recommend the Thule Force 3 to anyone in need of extra storage. We're thrilled to have it as part of our gear setup!

Nice finish and locking mechanism, but shakes too much in the wind for me. Makes me concerned about long term durability of the plastic. I had a Motion XT XL before that seemed to be more sturdy. Returned in favor of a Snowpack Extender, as my skis do better in the wind at 75-80+ than the box. Thule states top speed limited to 80 mph with box installed, which I would say is the max I would be comfortable with especially in winds. Not an acceptable compromise for me, skis are easier to load in a rack than the cargo box. It would be great for short term use with light weight excess cargo, not something I would recommend leaving on the vehicle year round.

I had an earlier version of this ski box which lasted over 20 years of 4 season service. I recently received a larger box which has proven to be a perfect size.

Pretty cheaply made for $700+

Locking mechanism broke after 3 uses. Was never great to begin with. I’m questioning the durability of this product even when I do replace it under warranty.
