Cargo box
Whenever we take a roadtrip we manage to just barely fit everything we need in the minivan. We finally bit the bullet and got a good cargo box for the top of the minivan. 
I took the kids over to REI last night to pick it up along with a new pair of boots and a four-season tent. All this was on super-duper sale so we got a decent price. But the guy who brought out the boots and tent said there were no more boxes back there for me. I explained it was a roof rack and he kind of looked at me funny and said “Oh… then its out back. Just a minute”
He came back five minutes later dragging a cardboard box that was ten feet long, three feet wide and about three feet tall!! I dragged it out the car and just stood there looking at it and comparing it to the minivan. The box was bearly as big as the van!!
Did I mention I had all four kids with me?
Well I wound up hauling the cargo box out of the shipping cardboard box and it took me 30 minutes to figure out how to get it on the roof!
Alright, I’m an idiot.
But after that everything went fine.
I am hoping to make a roadtrip to Niagara Falls this summer and that would be a godo time to try it out. We may also head south.
Either way, its going to be a roadtrip and we will be able to store much of our luggage up there!
Yippee!
