    I would have to agree. This thing is freaking awesome.

    Any else have issues with stuff falling out of the attic? It either falls out or sags so bad it blocks the view out of the back window. Maybe there are some tips for use and I am just doing something wrong

    Not sure what you're putting in it. I use mine to store jackets, sweatshirts, and flannels and have had good luck with rolling and stuffing them. For the most part, everything stays in place driving on logging roads. As for it sagging, it's just built that way. I'm use to driving with my side mirrors so it's not a huge issue for me.

    I had a zip-up hoodie and a few kids clothes up there and stuff just kept falling out.

    Yea, I have found that it needs to be fairly well stuffed tight for things to stay put. I was thinking if they made a little lip on it that might help, but don't really know.

    Does anyone have the part # for the clothes hanger clip. I broke one trying to figure out how to get them out. Turn 90 degrees. I see now. :(

    Hi James! Have you tried adjusting the straps that go to each grab handle? That will usually tighten things up to keep the attic from sagging when its not in use. It will however, sag a bit when stuff is loaded into it!

    Hey Eric! Great pic! We would love to post this pic on Instagram and Facebook if that's ok with you! If so, do you have an IG handle we can tag? ;)

    This photo looks like the bulk/weight of all the items block the rear view window. Any idea if two gortex raincoats and two light puffer jackets would fit without blocking the top of the window?

    The rear window will still be partly blocked. Right now I happen to have nothing in it and the attic by itself covers the top 1/4 of the rear window looking in my rearview mirror. Hope this helps.

    This is very helpful. Thanks. Hmmmmm....sounds like it makes that view much less useful. We have a drifter and so that also reduces visibility. Was hoping for something that won’t block our view at all but could keep our coats out of our dog hair and off the floor.

    Just wanted to say hi and glad to see you on the forum! I’ve made good use of a lot of your gear on many trips over the past couple of years, and I’m very happy with all of it. The most used is the tool pouch roll, the air tools bag, and the attic. A couple of 12x4 pouches velcroed to my headrest have seen a lot of use/misuse from the kids, if those bags can withstand that, they can stand up to anything. Thanks for all you do for this community!
