I like my cargo net. It helps with keep things like books my stuff in place instead of rolling around. It especially HELPS when I have eggs =).

I use mine all the time for small items and with large items I just squash it down.

However, I note in my manual it says the Canadian models have a 2nd cargo net to hold the windshield washer fluid. Seems like a good idea for winter but I've never seen a G with this 2nd net nor anyplace to connect it.

Anyone else?

I use my cargo net all the time.

Mostly for my QD/MF Towels and my newborn nephew. (Comes in handy whenever I forget his car seat)

It'll hold a baguette and bottle of wine. Get it.

What is "QD?"

Thanks. I carry the MF cloth, so I knew that was not an insult, but couldn't figure the other. I usually wait till I'm home to use the QD...

Speaking of home, after three weeks in France, I'll be home on Wednesday. Glad to get there, but sorry to leave Paris. I'm interested to see whether the "battery fix" has left me with a charged or dead battery.

Use it (since it was already installed), like it. That being said, make sure you don't pay a large amount, certainly 60$ MSRP sounds too much for it. You can get other cargo holders that are equally effective for less. I got mine free from the dealer.

Great thing to have, very useful. But I doubt half the people on here would have it if they had to pay the $60 for it and it wasnt included from their dealer.

+18 to what everyone already said about it being useful.

When I run to home depot, or lowes, or the grocery store or anywhere, I always throw the shopping bag in there. It holds things in place when you take turns fast. I usually drive with the back seat down for extra storage space, and the last thing you want is to slam on your breaks and have that can of spaghettio's come flying up to the front. Cargo net keeps it in check. And its good for storing an umbrella, icepick, and a towel.

And its adds 10 hp.
