I drove from Florida to Chicago with a trunk in a Nissan Rogue. It worked great! In terms of the lifespan of this thing and relative ease of use, you can't beat Rightline for the price. It has been thought through down to the smallest detail and can withstand a lot. In fact, it was difficult for me to fill it. On the advice of other reviewers, I put a large plastic bag on the floor. I don't think it's necessary for this, but it was very helpful for measuring where the bottom of the pack should be when initially adjusting the strap. The hem on the bag also added a little more security as it prevented the strap from possibly riding up on the stomach. I've always felt safe and never worried about the backpack shifting, falling or falling apart. The material of the backpack itself and the straps are very thick. The stitching is strong and the plastic fasteners are strong. The only problem I had was with the zipper. It's a huge zipper and it wasn't easy to get around the corners, especially with cold fingers. Overall I am 100% satisfied with my experience. I would recommend the product to any friend, family member or stranger on the internet. I also recommend that you give yourself plenty of time for your first fitting as it will take you at least 1 hour (plus 2 beers and 5 sincere apologies to everyone within earshot).
