Hi there...I have a 2006 Subaru Outback Wagon 2.5i, and want to find a cargo box that is long enough to fit skis (185cm) without the box interfering with opening the hatchback. I have heard that the Thule Evolution 1800 will accommodate the skis, but will not mount on the factory roof rails of the Outback wagon without interfering with the hatchback. Is there another way of mounting this (maybe with Thule Towers/Feet & Load Bars?) to make this work? thanks!
