About Thule
Thule was founded in 1942 by the Thulin family, when Eric Thulin, a true lover of the outdoors, put the Thule name on a pike trap he designed and began to sell in Scandinavia. It wasn't long before he added other practical items to the company's portfolio. By the 1960s, the company began to concentrate on car-related products, including its first roof rack. The Thulin family sold Thule to the publicly listed company Eldon in 1979, and it has continued to grow both organically and through acquisitions ever since. The Thule Group is a world leader in providing transport solutions for an active life.

Thule 684 Terrapin Hitch Mount Luggage Box Reviews

I must have shopped 3 months for the best price on this storage box. I really wanted to support the loacal shop here in Denver, Rack Attack, but after repeated attempts to get them to match the before tax price of the Amazon product, I decided to just buy it from Amazon. It was also annoying that if I was willing to pay the extra money for their box that they wanted to charge me an additional amount to have them assemble and install it. In all, I saved about $80 by buying it from Amazon. I could not have been more happy with the purchase experience. It was delivered as agreed and in perfect condition. The box itself took about 2 hours to assemble and install. Not very difficult, but certainly time consuming. Also, unless you are okay with semi-heavy lifting, you should probably do this with another person. The box fit perfectly into my 2007 4-Runner hitch. The only problem was that I needed an adapter from 7 pin to 4 pin to get the brake lights to work. I...

I purchased this prior to making a long (10 hr) drive to a ski resort in the northeast. It worked great. I bought the Thule 688XT Atlantis 2100 roof mounted carrier as well, as we have 4 kids and were transporting all of our ski/snowboard gear, clothes, etc. for an 8 day trip. I was able to mount both carriers easily with the help of my 16 yr old son. Overall, I'd say the carrier is expensive, but very durable and holds a lot of gear. The hitch mount is fairly easy to set up, with some help (not a 1 person job). Once it is on, I had no trouble getting the brake lights hooked up and everything secure. I did not need a special connector for the brake lights as I have seen in some posts, it fit directly into my factory tail light assembly from Honda (I have a 2008 Honda Pilot). Also, I mistakenly purchased the hitch lock kit from Thule... do not buy this, as the carrier comes with it already. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: Saved me from buying a Minivan!, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Thule 684 Terrapin Hitch Mount Luggage Box (Misc.) With two dogs a wife and Child my 2003 Nissan Xterra was getting way too crowded on our road trips and it was either sell the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned and buy a Minivan or come up with another option. Thank God I found the THULE 684 it was like adding an additional trunk to my vehicle. I was fairly simple to put together and came with all the tools you need to put it together with the exception of the license plate holder. Once it's on you do not even notice that it's on the vehicle while driving and had no affect on my gas mileage since it's behind you and not dragging air on the roof. The only two cons are it can be hard to take off and on by yourself and it takes up a bit of space to store when not in use. Other than that I couldn't be happier with my purchase! I would also recommend buying from Amazon they had the lowest price and I also didn't have to pay tax or shipping. |
