Preparing for a ski trip, I pondered how to fit all the gear into my vehicle — boots, skins, skis, poles, helmets, goggles, packs, towels, camp lights, duffels, coolers, and groceries, along with three friends tagging along. Faced with the challenge of limited trunk space, I realized the need for a better organization system.
Having embarked on numerous journeys with my trusty Subaru Crosstrek, from solo cross-country drives to adventurous trips with friends and pets, I’ve become a packing expert. However, the lack of a consistent gear organization system led me to seek a solution that could streamline my packing process.
After test-driving the Yakima HomeBase for 2.5 weeks, I was impressed by its ease of installation, especially in my compact Subaru Crosstrek. The modular system, featuring drawers for efficient storage, offered a practical solution for keeping gear organized and secure during travels.
The Yakima MOD system incorporates a track system that allows for easy interchangeability between totes and drawers, providing a customizable storage solution. Additionally, with integrated components like tie-downs and optional add-ons such as a slide-out for a Dometic cooler and a WorkSpace, the system offers versatility at a competitive price.
