Wondering if anyone here has any experience with a Thule Transporter 665C and their 2011+ Explorer. I did a search and didn't see any threads discussing it.

I was originally looking at getting a rooftop cargo box for when we head out of town on vacation, visiting relatives, etc. and this hitch mounted cargo box caught my eye. It can hold more than the 100 lbs that Ford specifies as the rooftop limit, appears it won't have as much of a negative effect on gas mileage, and will actually be cheaper than most rooftop cargo boxes (I would need to buy the crossbars as well).
Reviews on Amazon seem to be pretty good on it, so it appears to be a decent option for me. Just wanted to hear what people here think of it if they have ever used one themselves.
