Description

Hit the road with all your gear in tow—and we mean ALL your gear. The 18 cubic ft Rightline Gear Sport 3 Car Top Carrier is the Godzilla of roof top cargo bags, holding more gear and equipment than you may even need. But hey, it’s not always about needs!

Crafted of PVC-backed Hydrotuff fabric and equipped with Rightline’s urethane coated ZipRight zipper system, your Sport 3 Car Top Carrier is built for the long haul. Plus, the protective storm flap system keeps the weather out and your cargo in.

Best yet, RightlineGear backs your Sport 3 Car Top Carrier with a 1-year warranty.

We purchased this to bring our daughter's stuff back from college. The carrier was easy to use and we love that it folds up so nicely. It is also great because if you have a smaller amount of stuff it straps down nicely and creates less drag. Great quality construction and much cheaper than the traditional carriers.

I purchased this cargo bag supposedly for our 2012 Toyota Sienna and I was surprised by the size of it. It was too big for our van and I ended up using it for our '03 Toyota 4Runner. I like the design and the quality of the material and we'll be using it for our move from Michigan to Texas. I hope it will keep our stuff dry just in case we go thru hard weather conditions. We have a lot of stuff to haul that I'll be purchasing a smaller bag, the Rightline Gear Sport 1 for the Sienna.

The installation would have been okay. It took an hour or two to tie it down, the aerodynamics is bad it makes a lot of noise and the carrier keep hitting the roof of my SUV. So when we stop and rested at rest area, I tried to tighten the strap and guess what. The plastic connector broke, it's too fragile. It should be metal rather than plastic.

This waterproof car top carrier is extremely well made and a valuable item when it comes to road trips. The installation was very easy, but I recommend a couple more rachet straps to from a "x" on the top for more support. My family and took this bag on it's first road trip 800 miles with zero problems. We encountered rain, high winds, and a little snow. Although I didn't find any water in the bag, I didn't take any chances...I purchased a small 8x12 tarp to wrap my six pieces of luggage.

This is a very nice carrier, feels sturdy and fits perfectly fine on top of my '09 Pilot. Only one thing to be aware of; be sure that you are going to fill the bag up completely or better don't use it. We had a 300+ miles trip and the mileage drop from 20 mpg to 15 mpg. The bag was like a parachute holding us up. Granted that is not problem of the carrier, just giving you a heads-up, everything else is just fine.

We purchased this for a trip of 800 miles during a move between Georgia and Michigan in August. It worked great and we have no issues except for one that I don't think can be blamed on the carrier. We don't have a roof rack so we attached the carrier straight to the roof, as per the directions. When tightened one of the straps cut through our rubber strip insulation at the window edge and also let rain water into the car. We needed to get the insulating strip replaced afterward.

The straps can be attached on vehicles with or without a roof rack. Attachment is dependent on which method you will be using. In both methods the straps will go up and over the top of the car top bag. The Non-Skid Roof Pad is $19.95.

Hello. If you already have the roof rails, the PackRight will work best with crossbars. If you choose to use the straps of the bag to keep it on your car, they will go through the door jamb and through the car (under the roof). The crossbars are definitely recommended. Hope that helps.

cross bars for cargo carriers?

We have a 2010 Lexus RX450H with roof rails but no cross bars. We want to make sure the storage system we purchase can hold the weight of suitcases, etc. and not touch roof. Do we need cross bars? What soft type system has solid base? Anyway, please give advice on what system is best.

Answers (1)

Staff Answer

Answered by Elizabeth C. — Jul 20, 2012 3:00 PM

In regards to your 2010 Lexus RX450H, to best protect and secure any item that will be placed on the roof of your Lexus without interfering with a moonroof or touching the roof at all, it is best to add the cross bars first. They will definitely be able to handle most items weights, including luggage or cargo boxes/bags, and will be compatible with most roof rack accessories such as bike racks, ski/snowboard racks and such.
Here are two of the roof rack systems we carry for your 2010 Lexus RX450H: the Inno Base Rack System and the Thule base Rack System. After that, you can pretty much place a soft-side such as the PackRight Cargo Roof Carrier, a hard-side Thule 682 Sidekick Roof Cargo Box, a Thule 690 Moab Cargo Basket for luggage, or many other items.

Hi Alex, to say that any of these bags are waterproof may be a bit of an overstatement. They are all water resistant; however, and this is usually enough to keep your gear dry. The liner for the PackRight bag just gives an extra layer of defense that ensures your stuff stays dry even during heavy downpours.

Hi Amy, the Sport 3 is the largets bag in the PackRight lineup. It is designed for full-sized cars and mid- to full-size SUVs. They do; however, make a couple other smaller bags. To be safe, just measure the racks on your roof and match it to these PackRight bag sizes:

PackRight Sport 3: 48" L x 40" W

PackRight Sport 1: 38" L x 34" W

PackRight Sport Jr.: 36" L x 30" W
