"Cheaped out" on Roof Rack.
I have been wanting a Gobi rack for the longest time but the price was killing me. I know they are the best and can carry much more than a normal rack but I didnt have a need for that much capacity. I came up with this solution after seeing a pic in another thread. Ordered the following last night:
Rola rack with extension: 66"x37.5"x4", $190.00 , Rack-Dawg.com
Platypus bag and net (15cu ft): $100.00, Rack-Dawg.com
Factory Spec H3 cross bars w/mounts: $180.00, Gear Jammin accessorys
A shade over $500.00 w/shipping. Basically 1/3 the cost of a Gobi and it will handle my needs. If I had the greater need for carrying capacity I would go with the Gobi hands down! I will post pics when I get it all mounted up.
