  • The rooftop cargo box has been a game changer for my minivan camping life! I bought it from FB Marketplace, so I do not have a product link. This box is dated 2018.
    It seems like there are a ton of used rooftop boxes out there, so keep your eyes out!

    It is like an outdoor storage unit for your portable patio including furniture and grill.

    As usual, Amanda, you are 2 years and 3 steps ahead of me! I just bought the same box, also on FB marketplace! I'm 30 years older than you and only 5 ft, so I bought a 3 step folding ladder at Lowes. I bungeed it across the van behind the front seats and put a board between it and my fridge. Love the lanyard idea for the key to pull the box roof down. Keep these great videos coming. I've learned so much from you! Happy travels to you and Wynston!

    Thanks for sharing this video. I have the same box. If you put a towel underneath all of the stuff, you can pull on the towel to get easier access to items.

    Hi, awesome channel. The thing with rooftop boxes is that they are only supposed to handle 100 pounds to prevent damage to the box or the roof. I had to rethink that for myself.
    Motor on babe!

    A lot of space in there! Have you some a video about using levelers. That would be great!

    Pretty cool box top 😎. Amanda, did your Bluetti power station ever show up at your place while you were away? Looking forward to seeing your review on how well it works and how it compares to your Jackary 240.

    We had a roof top and it was very loud when on the highway. Therefore we switched to a rear carrier. Do you notice that or was it just our older rooftop?

    Thanks for sharing. I’m getting one. Do you keep on year round? I am also wondering what I will keep in it as my EDC. I know I want a chair that easily folds out to go in at all times. Can’t wait!

    You are nice and tall and I don't think I could do that. I would probably fall and break my neck.

    So.. you have to lock from the rear, then go around the side to load/unload? Seems like a lot of hassle?

    Amanda are these factory roof rails? I just got an sxt and wondering what size will fit

    • @AdventuringWithAmanda
      @AdventuringWithAmanda  3 месяца назад

      Yes it came standard on my van.

    • @bonniecreevy2642
      @bonniecreevy2642 3 месяца назад

      Ty!!!! I’m reading that because the roof rails are so far apart. A lot of the boxes do not fit. I just got my van yesterday! I head out in a month. Ty 💃💃💃
