So great products built in USA and built to last. I might add that both boys now 30 and 28 both have Grand Cherokee's with Yakima Racks, baskets, air spoilers and bike racks on their respective Jeep's as we and the oldest also has a Wrangler outfitted with Yakima products. GREATEST purchase ever is the truth, and the Yakima products are still going and in great shape and some like the SPACE CASE are approaching 30 years old. Well in later years she has said and I quote "That is the smartest thing you ever bought" but wont let me replace with a new one. Imagine being in your 30's two small children and your husband comes driving in the driveway with a rather large purchase in the way of mounts, cross bars and a Space Case and locks and tie downs and money is tight as saving for college etc is all going on at this same time. And that is because thee is nothing wrong with the old one. I store it and my sons come and borrow it, I have tried to give it to one of them no charge so I could buy the new one but my wife says no new box. I think of all the stuff I missed by not driving from Kansas to Maine. Had time constraints or we would of drove. Last year we could of used the SPACE CASE/SKYBOX but we flew to Maine for our oldest Son's wedding, rented a new Jeep Grand Cherokee and took off for Acadia National Park and on to Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island and down the coast back to Portland Maine and then flew home. And yes we still go and we still drive, it is the best way to see the USA. I want to get the SKYBOX so badly, but both kids are out of the house and college now, there is just 2 of us when we go places and we have plenty of room with us in the Jeep so no need to put on the SPACE CASE when we go on a vacation. So here is this large box that is white and gray, and a beautiful 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee that is White and Gray with hand painted pin stripes around the door handles etc., custom wheels and so AWESOME with the Yakima Space Case in White and Gray on top. Picture this as I do not have any pictures that I can find, I could of swore we had some from Yellowstone. I do however own a SPACECASE 19, a 19 cubic foot box that I purchased in 1996 I believe, it was originally bought for the top of a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Well I may of just lost my first review as I was not done with it but it disappeared.
