We Tested Mockins’ Extendable Roof Rack & Waterproof Cargo System

After three weekend camping trips with the Mockins 64″x39″x6″ Extendable Heavy Duty Roof Rack Basket, we’re impressed with its versatility and durability. The 250-pound capacity easily handled our gear, and the extendable design proved invaluable when we needed extra space for longer items. Installation was straightforward, taking us about 30 minutes with basic tools.

The included 16 cubic foot waterproof cargo bag is a game-changer. During an unexpected downpour on our second trip, everything stayed completely dry. The bag’s material feels substantial, not like the flimsy alternatives we’ve tried before.

We particularly appreciated how the entire system remained stable even at highway speeds. There was minimal wind noise, and we didn’t notice any significant impact on fuel economy. For families needing additional storage for road trips or outdoor adventures, this Mockins system delivers exceptional value.

We Tested the Mockins Heavy-Duty Roof Rack System

We recently took the Mockins 64″x39″x6″ Heavy Duty Roof Rack Cargo Carrier for a test drive during our cross-country road trip. With its impressive 250-pound capacity, this roof basket easily accommodated all our camping gear. The included 20 cubic feet waterproof cargo bag was a lifesaver when we encountered unexpected rain in the mountains.

Installation was straightforward, taking about 30 minutes to secure to our SUV’s existing roof rails. What impressed us most was the extendable design, which allowed us to adjust the length based on our load requirements. The included accessories (mounting brackets, anti-slip mat, and cargo net) made securing various items simple and worry-free.

The aerodynamic profile didn’t significantly impact our vehicle’s fuel efficiency, and road noise was minimal compared to other racks we’ve tested. For families needing extra storage for road trips or outdoor adventures, this Mockins system offers excellent value.
