I saw this roof rack and would like to hear thoughts on the product. Seems like a really cheap alternative to aluminess products at $632. Must be something I'm missing. 158lbs. Powdercoated steel would probably rust????
Very creative, and functional if you do a great of strapping things down, but I would want at least some amount of vertical structure (something more along a basket than a flat rack).

I picked this Pro II Leg and Bar Kit by Kargo Master a few weeks ago, I like the look and profile of it and it was only 315.00 with free shipping. Seems well made but basic I will probably add onto it in the future. I have it together but then got snowed on really heavy so I haven't put it on yet.
I was mainly looking for a way to mount solar panels and maybe carry sheet goods every now and then.

Are you planning on keeping the rack on the roof all the time, or just when you need it? If just when you need it, I'd go with Thule bars and a basket which are easy to install and remove.
