Re: Fairing with Roof Box? Posted by pme [Email] (#1496) [Profile/Gallery] (more from pme) on Thu, 13 Aug 2020 13:07:23 In Reply to: Fairing with Roof Box?, fdw201 [Profile/Gallery] , Tue, 11 Aug 2020 08:18:43 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I put a Thule roof box on my wife’s GMC Terrain last week to take the daughter upstate to grad school. We have no fairing, so I can’t compare with and without. I will say that driving through some of the gusty residuals of Tropical Storm Isaias in the higher profile vehicle was ‘interesting’, but on the way home in fine weather everything was much more comfortable.
So, my long-winded point is that I would likely opt to leave the fairing off rather than risk causing my own wind gust as you describe.
