GoFastCampers I'm looking for a system for a "new 6.5 ft bed F-150" that is the same level as the roof of the truck when it is closed. It would have to stick out over the back a bit instead, maybe with a sloping rear lift gate. Nobody makes a system that fits in the garage door to my underground parking.

Awesome RTT, I just saw this up close at the Off Road Show in Pomona, CA today. Love the side rail panels for additional accessories to be mounted, the lighting on the roof top ~ ridiculously sick and the locking mechanism really stealthy. Base price at $6500, Side Door extra and other options available, I might have to break out the 401K to get it. RTT really looks great!

I love the design, utilitarian and well built. Thank you for including the information about the components that are designed and built in house, that really helps maintain QC when you manufacture your own components. Those who can appreciate quality in design and execution are willing to pay for it, but only if they are aware of it. If you are committed to this platform it will be interesting to see how it evolves. One thing that has always bothered me about the truck/topper platform for camping is the less than comfortable entry/ exit of the camper (perhaps it's just the price of admission).

Expanding on my previous comment you can buy a cheap tarp at Harbor Freight or Walmart for 5 or $10 depending on size and temporarily attach to truck cap and make a very nice shelter/canopy area to set outside even have fire in the rain.. best part with traditional truck cap there's no popping up tent part having to lift yourself up to elevated bed. You're on the solid bed of the truck. You can just use some C clamps to attach truck cap to bed. It's amazingly a simple but excellent camper setup

Awesome product! I am interested down the road. For this specific set-up with new Tacoma, do you know the top height of the camper on stock suspension? My concern is wanting to leave the camper on year round (or mostly) but I go into parking garages downtown for work. I have a 3 in lift currently and my stock antenna hits the 6'4 or 6'6 height barrier but I have some space below that. Also, have you used heat sources with maybe one section of the bed out to warm in inside space for cold/skiing conditions to camp? Thanks!

Height is vehicle specific, but our camper typically adds around 7" to vehicle height. Send us an email for specifics.

i'm not saying they should've gone all the way because it is a great product but man, the space it would have provided had they done the same as the flippac. im not sure if that was because of patents or what, but i would pay an extra 1,000 if they could have a 180 degree hinge and a tent top. i understand that they felt having a hard top and the overall design of the set up is far stronger than what i might be asking for. i think its a great product, i wonder if they can accommodate custom orders.

Important detail if you get the window option on your camper. 2 - Isn't there any concern about water pooling between the mesh screen and the window flap? From what I've seen from this video, the flap zips down to the floor of the tent. I really don't want to deal with a soaked matress or wet equipment. Thank you.
