Here is a picture of a rack I can get at a good price. It is: 44"x39"x6.5" and powder coated steel. The Coleman web site lists it for $204.00 = $30.00 shipping. My locale store has it marked down to $139.00. I might also be able to get 10% more off because my wife works in the same mall. There is only 2 of them so if it's a good deal I better act fast!

Have seen this rack. Almost bought one. Looked like a good deal for the price. They closed the Coleman outlet in PA nearest me. Thier map says there is another one in Lancaster PA. Gotta check it out. I get good hiking boots there. PS: We really liked St Augustine the couple times we visited! |

it looks like the one from www.sporttrack.com (they make the Mopar ones here in Canada). I Know- the instructions were the same for each & calling the company in Quebec put my mind at ease... Available at sport stores who sell Ski racks, etc. for cars. |

FYI, I googled Coleman Safari Rack and found that Costco has them for $75.00. |

I guess I'm out of luck. I don't belong to Costco and don't know anyone down here that does. So I guess I'll get the $139.00 set in the locale store.

Go to COsco and tell them you might be intrested in a membership and you would like a day pass. May your purchase and that's that... |

Thanks for the information guys! As a non member it was an additional 5% not 10%, so it was even cheaper than I figured! It is ordered
