WOO HOO Got my Moto Floor!!! Costco rocks! I placed my order on Monday it was shipped on Monday and it came direct from Snap Lock aka Race Deck Today. I paid for 8 cartons and a edge kit shipping was $105.



I opened the boxes and they look just like Race Deck tiles only they have double diamonds in the diamond plate pattern. If I can find my camera I will post some pictures. They are just as thick as Race Deck tiles so the rumor that the moto floor is less durable is BS I have seen Race Deck in person and this is the same thing. The tiles are floating when installed so air circulation does occur no standing water, mold, mildew. I am 100% satisfied with the motofloor at half the cost of the Race Deck! I don't work for Costco but I am a die hard customer. The Moto Floor sale ends on the 12th.

I can't find my Digital Camera... when I find it I will take some photos. I won't be installing the floor for at least another 2-3 weeks. Here is some pictures from an ebay auction.



The Moto Floor comes in two choices 48 Charcoal or 24 Black and 24 White combo.

I was going to pick these up, but for my garage area, it would have taken 6 boxes, at $80 a pop or whatever. Seems excessive to me.



How did you get away with only one box? One box is 48 one foot tiles right? So 7' by 7' basically?

Ok, that makes more sense <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> I love those tiles, and had the coupon from Costco on my desk to buy them, but for $500, right now I'll have to live with the concrete <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

yeah - it was more like $700 by the time it got here, and i still have to get the trim pieces - i ordered 3 trim kits, but i am going with a different source and will be returning those kits - it'll end up being about $800 by the time i'm done

Those who have purchased solid top modular garage floors, do yourself a favor. Buy a roll of 2 or 3mm rubber underlayment to go with it. You can usually get it in 4' x 60' rolls. Put the rubber down first, using duct tape on the seams. Then put your floor down on top. It will serve as a sound deprivation barrier. Otherwise you might end up with a hollow "clacking" sound as you walk on it.

Lucky ducks. My new garage is going to be 850sf and so I hope I will be able to get the Costco discount. Hardwood floors for the downstairs is going to be the first priority though.

Eric, have you decided to only do part of your garage?

Mine arrived today. 10 boxes plus completer pak. I am also interested in where to get the underlayment stuff. I'll post pix when it's done.



Eric, thanks for the heads up on this deal.

The sale looks like it was extended until the 19th!



Eric... Yeah unfortunatley for me I do not get the 1200 Sqft garage I was dreaming of. After going over the plans with the city I could only get another 262 Sqft added to the garage. Since we were Granted "Historic District" status earlier this year it has become harder to build in this neighborhood. It was not worth the cost to do the small addition. So we have a new design I am getting a large 1 car garage and work area. Nicole gets a large patio garden with a 6ft, 3 tier fountain. This week they have been getting the different areas prepped to install 2000 Sqft of pavers which they started laying an hour ago. (I Can not beleive the amount of work it takes to lay these things!) The driveway & walkways are getting an old tubbled stone look to them. The backyard has a Stamped concrete patio already so we are adding Grass stone which are pavers that have square cut outs for grass to grow through. Half of the yard will remain gass, we also have a large parinial garden that takes up a large portion of the yard. I also went from a 16ft Garage door to a 10Ft and added french doors that open to the patio. A lot of the Garage work I have been doing myself. I will post pictures once I am done.

Try any local synthetic sports flooring installer for the rubber underlayment. If you can't find it, let me know where you are and I'll get you the number of the closest place I know in you area. It usually runs about $0.28-0.30 a square foot for 2mm (about $60 a roll) plus freight. If you still can't find it, I can get it for you.

Can't wait to see the pictures. It sounds like it's all going to come together. I've found that the only thing better than "improving" a car is "improving" a house. It really is quite enjoyable.

Ugh. After reading this thread over and over I'm just dying to get this stuff now. But I just priced it out for my garage...$1300 including shipping. (11 boxes plus completer kit) Sounds like I'm in the same boat as rustech. We're about to put wood flooring in the house, so this will have to wait I guess.

I agree. We just moved from a house we built new to a house built 50 years ago. (which for Phoenix is old) We're in the process of: Covering the back patio, adding a carport/automatic gate, putting in sliding glass doors, re-roofing the whole house, putting a window in the bedroom, replacing a window in the dining room, replacing the front patio window with a bay window, completely remodeling the spare bathroom, and ripping out all the tile/carpet and putting in wood floors. Although since all this is going on simultaneously, I think my wife is getting close to having a nervous breakdown...but I'm enjoying it <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />



How does this relate to my 968: The carport/gate was just finished, and now I have a covered, secure spot to park and leave the top down all night. YAY!!!
