Thule Box: It used to be really cramped in our Jeep Grand Cherokee whenever we went camping...that is, until we bought our Thule Box. Our Thule box holds 700 cu. inches of cargo - we transport all of our camping gear in it, and we still have room for more stuff. At the end of the trip, we store the box, with all of the camping gear still in it, from the ceiling of our carport. That makes packing and unpacking a snap! The downside is that the pod, even when empty, is quite heavy, and hanging it from the carport does take some time. Also, you need to make sure that you never, ever, forget the key to your pod, or you may find yourself in the middle of nowhere without access to your camping gear.
