Yakima mounting feet are adjustable fore and aft, while the Thule mounting feet are in set locations (I'm 99% sure this comment is accurate regarding the Thule Force) in the hypothetical instance of failure i much prefer the Yakima system, which even if it were to somehow fail, would be more difficult to actually come fully off the crossbars. the Thule feet pinch the front and back of the crossbar. Yakima mounting feet wrap under the crossbar from front to back. this seemed to be due to the more angular shape on the Thule front end. however, the front of the Thule lid continuously was getting caught on the front corner of the base. Thule aesthetically is very cool looking, no doubt. Thule has 6 sturdy metal hooks for interior tie-downs while the Yakima has 4 plastic hooks for tie-downs. i like the action on the Yakima much more than Thule when closing, the Yakima is makes a distinct *click* when properly closed. there is no lever system to release the lid. the Thule had a plastic knob that rotates as you unlock. must unlock then rotate lever to release the lid. SkyBox interior floor is a flatter design that Thule, which had more undulations across the bottom Spent a while at REI going back and forth between Yakima SkyBox 18 and Thule Force XT XXL as they are comparable in price and size, here's what i personally noted as pro/cons looking up thru the sunroof, i could see the cushioned support under the bow of the box made for very little wobbling doing 80 down the hwy and had no extra noise (although with the other bolt-ons my 4R is already fairly noisy). test drive from Austin to Houston yesterday with some gear loaded in. the mounting feet themselves sit approx 1/4' to 1/2' above the mesh floor of the rack. cross bars can be positioned so that the rear a the box clears the open lift-gate while also resting the nose on a sup pad across the front raised bar.
