This is not directly related but just as an FYI my MB dealer provides the MB OEM cargo box for rent at a very reasonable rate , $70 per week. You reserve it, you show up , drive through the service dept entrance , they install it for you and you don't get off the vehicle!
I m not sure if all dealers do this or not and if they also rent the crossbars but for someone like me that may need it once every few years it is a great option. I may use this service later this summer and if I do I will post my experience.

Thank God I bought the Thule before building the garage so I knew to put in an extra tall door...

I have my Thule 45050 complete 50" crossbar set for sale (sold the GL and new Sienna comes with crossbars already built in). I bought them for $216 last year and used them for one season. $150 for local pickup. I'm in northern NJ, about 18miles from NYC. Anybody?

are you sure it is the Thule 45050 and not Thule 45058?
i don't think the 50 would fit.

Thule web sites says Thule 45058.

thanks
