Thread: Coleman Safari Rack at Costco for $75

    Default Coleman Safari Rack at Costco for $75

    perhaps some of you guys might be interested in this - http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product...1&Sp=C&topnav=

    don't really know how good the quality of this rack is, cosnidering some coleman products kinda lack in quality, but who knows, for $75 might be worse a try...

    You can’t beat $75 no matter how you look at it. From the image it looks like it does have substantial metal to take some abuse. Even if it does not work you can always give it away. Donate it to a person like the one in the image and maybe you will see the same dorky smile the model has.

    You wanna talk about perfect timing - I was just saying in the car on the way home how I wished I could find an inexpensive roof basket long enough to fit my rack rails so I wouldn't have to switch back and forth between a Surco rack, rails w/cargo box, and nothing at all (for parking garage) - and bingo - I get home and see this!!

    I just ordered one, and will give a full report on construction quality and general usefulness.

    Hopefully the mounts will fit on my aero-style crossbars without any problem.

    Bonus on the price - shipping is free (don't opt for express shipping - it is more than the basket itself!), although they will charge you tax, and I had to pay a whopping 3.75 extra since I'm not a member.

    I have the exact rack. its made by www.sportrack.com they rebrand them for Coleman, Canadian tire etc.

    Its a pretty good rack. It bolts together in two pieces which I thought would be weak but its been pretty good. They make an extension kit for it that lengthens it out.

    for $75 its pretty good deal.

    Finally talked the wife into doing some camping so I guess I need some more cargo space to help carry her stuff so I ordered one as well. I've spent $80 on worse things before.

    Default Got mine today.

    Mine finally came today. It is exactly what I wanted! Not real heavy duty, but it should do exactly what I wanted a rack for. If only my cap would get back from the body shop (for painting) I can figure out the mounting. Thanks for posting this deal up...

    I have looked at that at the Coleman outlet store. Seems to be well built. I'd pimp it on my truck if my sand ladders would fit in the bottom side by side.
