Thule Racks 613 Pulse Alpine, 614 L Pulse and 615 XL Pulse Cargo Roof Box Series Launches

March 19, 2013 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
ORS Racks Direct, a nationwide retailer and distributor of vehicle car rack systems, and Thule Racks, the world-wide leader in automobile gear and equipment transport solutions, proudly announce new partnership developments with the release of the Pulse cargo roof box series. These entry-level, affordably priced roof rack cross bars mounting cargo-luggage containers include the Thule 613 Pulse Alpine carrier, Thule 614 Pulse L carrier and the Thule 615 Pulse XL box. Along with innovative features they all share in common, each Thule Pulse cargo box offers unique elements designed to meet the varying needs of consumers. All are in the cartop roof rack cross bars mounting luggage-cargo gear box container category. And thanks to the innovative and user friendly Easy-Grip mounting hardware, the 615 Pulse XL, 614 Pulse L and Pulse Alpine are all universally compatible with aftermarket base rack system cross bars from Thule, Whispbar, Yakima, Inno and others, as well as attaching directly to virtually all factory racks. The Pulse roof boxes are available in matte black; offer improved range of adjustable positioning on cross bars to successfully position at the ideal location on each specific vehicle model for a well balanced look, plus provide a dramatically enhanced ability to adjust the box location so the rear of the cargo container won't interfere when the car trunk or back hatch door is opened fully; improved aerodynamics help to reduce wind drag and possible rack noise, as well as providing noticeable fuel savings compared to other competitors' roof boxes in this entry-level category. All models are available for immediate ordering at discount savings and immediate shipment at ORS Racks Direct.

"The Thule Racks 613 Alpine, 614 L and 615 XL Pulse roof box series replaces the previous generation, entry-level series of cartop cargo-luggage carriers in the Time Travel series, which included the 669ES Mountaineer, 668ES Frontier and 667ES Excursion. It is obvious that the Thule Racks engineers and designers put great thought into developing the basic, entry-level Pulse series to simultaneously meet long lasting, durable and easy operating features with inexpensive, affordable pricing," explains Catherine Case, ORS Racks Direct Consumer Relations and Sales Coordinator, "and we are particularly excited about the Thule 615 Pulse XL box (http://www.orsracksdirect.com/thule-615-pulse-xl-rooftop-luggage-cargo-box.html) for its exceptional universal design that looks great on a very wide range of vehicle sizes and designs. The 76"(L) x 33"(W) x 16.5"(H) dimensions and 16 cubic/feet of storage space deliver ideal, all-around sizing and extra large cargo volume to carry a variety of gear and equipment such as skis, snowboards, cargo bags, luggage gear, golf club bags, baby jogger-stroller, vacation and camping supplies and more inside the Thule 615 XL car rack mount roof box."

Sporting 67"(L) x 35"(W) x 16"(H) dimensions and a 14 cubic/feet cargo capacity, the Thule 614 Pulse L car rooftop cargo-luggage container (http://www.orsracksdirect.com/thule-614-pulse-rooftop-cargo-luggage-container.html), is the most compact, shortest length Pulse model available. It is a great choice for those not needing a longer roof box to haul skis, long snowboards and other extra long gear and equipment. The Thule 614 Pulse L is ideally sized to transport a large volume of luggage-cargo gear, vacation supplies, camping equipment, sports gear, golf clubs, shopping bags and more. The short length also marries very well with virtually all automobile sizes, from 2-door models to large 4-door pickup trucks, SUV and CUV models, minivans, Jeeps etc. As with all other Pulse roof box models it includes Thule locks and keys that both lock all contents inside the cargo container and the container itself to the vehicle, providing complete protection from theft.

The third model is the uniquely designed Thule 613 Alpine roof box (http://www.orsracksdirect.com/thule-613-pulse-alpine-snowboard-ski-skinny-roof-box.html) with dimensions of 88.5"(L) x 25.5"(W) x 12.5"(H) and 11 cubic/feet gear storage capacity. It is the longest, narrowest and most low-profile Pulse model, perfectly suited as a snowboards-skis roof box, or convenient cargo-luggage gear and equipment car top carrier that offers maximum low-profile clearance when entering a garage and other possible overhead low hanging clearance. The narrow design makes it the best choice for those wanting to mount additional gear attachments alongside the 613 Alpine box. The aerodynamic, low-profile design also makes it the number one Pulse model choice for reducing wind drag and maximizing fuel costs.
