The GMC I'm considering purchasing does not have a rooftop storage pod. Internet search doesn't come up with the pod I frequently see on these rigs. Does Camping World have them in the store and not online? How much do they cost? Any other sources?
Thanks,

I need one as well since mine is super old and cracking bad.
I Craigs Listed them and a few popped up that seemed to be a good price.
You may want to try that as well.

Jim,
I downloaded Yakima's catalog and it appears they don't make the large
square type pods that go on RV's the ones they make go on car roof racks.

I also looked at the Yakima site, and with the prices of those pods, a rear hitch mounted one doesn't seem like a bad alternative.
The roof ones don't look to be all that large to justify having to climb up on the roof to fill and empty them.

Pete,
I have the large storage pod mounted on my 76 GMC, I plan on removing it
before I have my GMC painted this next summer. I don't know of any cracks
or leaks. It is always dry when I open it. If you come down here to North
County San Diego and help me remove it, it is yours
I don't like walking on the roof myself, and I find that it ia easily
accessible from a collapsible ladder that I bought from Campers World that I
lean against the GMC and gives me easy access. I could sell you that ladder
too.
Are you interested in a 94 Geo 4WD Tracker, tow bar and all? real
reasonable, you could tie the pod to the roof of the GEO if you didn't drive
too fast, or put the top down and put it in the right seat.

Rob, I knew if I gave him a starting place like Yakima that several GMCers
would jump in and rescue him. Gotta love the GMCnet. How is the weather down
under?

Jim,
Got back on Friday to a nice late spring / early summers day, today it's
another beautiful day in "The Best City on Earth" - Logo on a Ken Done
(Aussie artist) drawing that was made into a T-shirt! ;-)

Actually, the GMC I'm considering is near Portland, so a stop in the Tri-cities is already planned! I hope to head over that way after the holidays to inspect the rig. Maybe we can work out a deal then?
