I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Yes. Just took this on a 1400 mile round trip on our 2016 Highlander with no problems. Rock solid on the factory crossbars and no tailgate interference. Great box for the Highlander.

The box itself is about 62 pounds. The shipping cardboard box is big and heavy as well and is the difference in weight.

I had mine on a Honda Pilot and noticed very little if any impact to mileage. It’s pretty low profile.

Hey Cara, It looks like there is a mistake in the specs listed on amazon. The actual size of this box is 92 x 36 x 11.5. I have sent a request over to get the specs updated to reflect the correct specs. Thanks for pointing this out!
