This is a great cargo box that has only been used about 5 times.
Why I love it - I wanted something aerodynamic to not increase drag yet large enough to accommodate a lot of luggage or ski equipment, would allow clearance to open the back of my SUV, and that locked.
This box hits all of these very well.
Another bonus is that it opens on both sides which I didn't realize how much that mattered.

A New Design for Efficiency, Convenience, and Style
The Thule 633 Sonic Alpine Roof Box provides users with an optimal blend of design, convenience, and style.
The roof box has an 11 cubic foot interior capacity and utilizes game-changing Thule AeroNose technology that allows the box to cut through the air, reducing drag and noise, while giving it a distinctive look.
Additional features include simple AcuTight mounting knobs that deliver exact tensioning and are compatible with most any rack system, maximized trunk and hatch clearance, a box lid that opens from either side, locking functionality, and four size configurations designed to fit the vehicle and hauling needs of different users.
Patented Thule AeroNose Box Shaping
The Thule Sonic Cargo Box features a completely new design imagined from the ground up for improved performance and maximum convenience.
This new design is clear to see in the distinctive angle of the front of the box's lid.
Patented Thule AeroNose shaping, combined with Hi-Flow base technology built into the lower section of the box, reduces drag and allows air to pass between the box and your vehicle's roof.
Along with the quieter ride that cargo box users long for, AeroNose technology also provides the possibility of better gas mileage due to the drop in drag.
In addition to this, the Thule Sonic cargo box also features a patented rear-angled exterior base and expanded vehicle mounting points within the box.
The angled base provides extra space between the box and open hatchbacks and trunks, while the expanded mounting points allow the box to be mounted further forward or back on an installed rack.
Taken together, these last two points allow the Sonic line of cargo boxes to maintain a slim, low profile that maximizes storage space while maintaining scratch-free trunk and hatch clearance.
Perfect Tension Through AcuTight Mounting Hardware
When it comes to ease of mounting, the Thule Sonic line of cargo boxes is tops in its class as well, featuring a perfect fit to virtually any rack through patented AcuTight mounting knobs.
AcuTight mounting knobs are ergonomic and require no tools to secure Sonic cargo boxes to load bars of all shapes through raised slits along the bottom of the box.
(Open slits are covered with a rubberized strip to keep out moisture) And unlike other mounting components which require guesswork, AcuTight mounting knobs always provide just the right amount of tension, audibly "clicking" -- similar to a gas tank cap -- when you reach optimal hold to ensure your box is secured to the rack and automatically stopping applied tension.
The Convenience of Dual-Side Opening
The lid also offers the convenience of dual-side access.
This means you can get to your gear whether you are on the driver or the passenger side of the vehicle.
And when the lid is open, its built-in lifter elements at the front and rear of the box hold the box open providing hands-free access to gear.
When you are done with your box, simply pull the lid closed, and built-in Thule SecureLock technology ensures that all edges of the lid are completely closed, and included locking functionality at the driver side of the box ensures that it stays that way.
Oversized SecureLock elements are also easy to grasp, even with gloves on, making the box simple to use in winter conditions.
