ok, so I'm fairly interested in a roof rack, even though I don't think that I'll ever get the use out of it that I should for the outrageous prices that some of them cost...

What are all of the roof baskets you guys know about?


here is my List:

Anybody know of anything that I've left out?
Anybody know anything about Off Road Unlimited? I think that looks like the best rack for the money

 

Don't forget the traditional Thule and Yakima racks and baskets. I'll bet there are some used ones on ebay that are cheap but would look good with a quick touch-up respray.

 

Heres where I got my ROLA http://www.etrailer.com/Merchant2/me...egory_Code=CCR Not a bad deal. I carry my spare on it.

HOLY CRAP.....That's ALOT of choices

Good Luck with that!!

 

One thing I realized when I just bought my Gobi rack was to factor in the price of your crossbars. Gobi mounts directly to the roof slots. If you already have rails up there, they will now be useless.
Some of the racks mount to the factory rails like the off road unlimited. So it might be a good buy for the money but you need to buy crossbars if you dont already have them..so tack on about..$500?

 

yeah, I did overlook that little tidbit about the factory crossbars.. I was a little overenthusiastic by thinking that all of these would just mount right into the roof like the Gobi
I think I'm going to axe the idea all together at this point
