If he wants to charge that kind of dough, he should cover that end as well, IMHO...

That said, I have the rodmount system for inside my Tahoe. Like it!
Maybe. Maybe not. He's one guy building them mostly in his garage so they're just not going to be cheap. Machining, welding, anodizing, etc.

He's sold a lot of them priced as is, that's for sure.

Some people don't like the big piece of tupware that is the Thule solution, either.
