Wow!
Driving slowly?
I was going, at most, 5 - 10mph over speed limit. In some areas, speed limit is 50mph, and on those smaller highways, i just went about 50 - 55mph. On the 70mph highways, I stayed pretty much right at 70mph.

Any more photos of your setup? Can you confirm the liftgate can be fully opened without hitting? Definitely looking at this box and just need a few more photos before pulling the trigger
My liftgate is not fully open (my garage is kind of short), so I can't confirm it can be fully open without hitting, but it's not even close, you'd have to go more than full vertical to touch the box, so I'm pretty confident this is not an issue. Also note, my box is adjusted as far back on the car as possible, so there's so much room to move it forward that there's no way you'll have an issue with the liftgate hitting the box, especially if it's probably going to clear it at it's furthest back position.
The box is off the car at the moment, but I'll be back on another trip this weekend, so I'll try to take a few more, but not sure exactly what you're looking for?
You can move the car out of the garage and then push the liftgate up as far as it will go (it's meant to let this happen). Then you can see if it hits the cargo box. The liftgate will go back to its set height the next time it is opened.My liftgate is not fully open (my garage is kind of short), so I can't confirm it can be fully open without hitting
I'm also very interested in how well the Motion XT - XL fits on the Model Y. e.g.) Close up photos of how the box attaches to the factory bars (how much room there is to move the box forward/backward between the bars, Back hatch open to the max height to show how much clearance there is from the boxJust a few different angles like a front shot to see how wide it is over the glass roof and maybe some photos of the inside when packed. Will be our first roof box so still need to convince wife as baby 2 is on the way and we discovered traveling w/ one baby and their “stuff” is not an issue but adding an additional car seat will eat some space.
Thank you for the pictures! Was looking at this exact model. Did you have to adjust the liftgate height when it opened?Thule Motion XT-XL Installed! PERFECT FIT.
Nope! Just have to have the box positioned properly.Thank you for the pictures! Was looking at this exact model. Did you have to adjust the liftgate height when it opened?

@noshadow Did you consider or try to test out if the XXL version would fit on the Model Y?
