    It's a nice setup while you're young. Now that I'm in my 60s and about to retire and travel the country I think I'll go with a full size truck with an 8 foot bed and a cap with a higher roofline. 30 years ago a small truck would have been all I wanted but now I want more space and comfort.

    I had a rooftop tent it's to much weight and your to vulnerable. I had no choice but to get rid of it. Times are getting tougher and all the creeps and predators are coming out the wood works. I had far to many instances where people in cars or trucks would come and doing burn outs next to me bumping music shining there high beams right at my tent. I almost shot a few people.

      @jordan7091 Před 5 měsíci +1

      I was in the same boat. I called every topper place in the greater Denver area since there was nothing within a thousand miles to buy used and it had to be custom ordered. I got side windows that open both with the sliding window and pop up like the rear. Cost me $3,500. Ouch. If you can't find used, you'll have to go to a topper place and have them order one to be made for you unless some places have them just sitting on the lot (every place I called pretty much laughed at the possibility of that)
