After seeing a Reddit post, I went and picked up a Yakima Deep Space 10. It fits and looks great over the bed. Will help carry stuff we acquired on our 1000 mile trip back home.

Sweet! Can we get a side shot to see how much (if any) it hangs over?

No overhang, it sits pretty much flush if not a little bit inside the truck frame.
it also does not block my rear view mirror!

Is that a tent or just a big cargo box?

It’s a cargo box. We’re in the market for a hard shell tent as well. I found out at the store that this box can actually mount via the hitch and swing out of the way with the Yakima Exo mount. Which will be perfect for when we go camping.

So guess I'm just surprised or curios not trying to knock you. But with the frunk, cab, under seat storage, gear tunnel and the bed you still need more storage space?

I have the same plans as well when my R1T comes. I already have the Exo SwingBase with bike racks and ski racks for my Wrangler, was holding off on the cargo box to see if I really need it with a truck. It sure would be nice for my Wrangler, but not sure how long I will still have the Jeep :)

But I will still use the Exo on my R1T for skis and bikes, maybe this cargo box if I need it. That way I can use the crossbars and bed for my RTT when that time comes! Nice truck and the cargo box looks great on the bars too!
Nice! What RTT do you plan on going with?

I will be looking into a HTT when my R1T arrives. Lots of great choices on the market right now.

We’re carrying an unusually large amount of stuff back from a 1000 mile road trip visiting family. Otherwise the truck storage is more than enough. It’ll also be useful when we go on an extended camping/skiing trip.

Looks great. Perfect length.

I'm pondering a box because I fear my powder skis aren't going to fit in the bed. But they definitely aren't going to fit in this box... :)

You may want to double check that with Yakima. I was looking at this box as well and the Yakima website has the following point under the description: "Can not be used with EXO system"

I think the EXO box and the Deep Space are the same shell, but have different pre-installed mounting systems.

Looks good; curious if there is any additional wind resistance with the box sticking above the cab that small amount. Also curious if you had to drill holes in the box to mount it to the cross bars (do the deepspace boxes have mounting holes that the EXO gear lockers don't?). I picked up a couple of the EXO gear lockers over the weekend in anticipation of my R1T delivery in a few weeks.

Thanks for posting pics!
