Yeah they are both high but really good quality. I went with the Prinsu for the price and ther versatility of them.

Gobi weight cap = 300 lb
Baja weight cap = 200 lb
Prinsu weight cap = "use good judgement."

Kinda crazy gobi is x2 in $$ but only carries 100 lbs more. Prinsu guys are just like "good luck."

I do like the baja and am leanin towards it atm. The gobi is a piece of art though.
