I think the only difference is the Amazon one has four racks and the bass pro has six.

It is hard to tell since they don't have detailed descriptions on what material they are (stainless or aluminum) and what accessories are included. the only thing I see is the bass pro has 6 racks.

Doug, check the main MES BT thread for a lot of useful info:

I'll be getting the 2.5 too.  I'm pretty sure its the right choice for me but time will tell. 

The Amazon one was $368 last week.  I would not buy it at this price.

Are you sure it was the gen2.5 at $368? I have not seen amazon get it in stock at all yet.
