Red_5 gets a ZR2 and bolts some things on...

Great thread, very helpful as I'm ready to do some cargo management myself on 18 Z71 CC I just picked up. I'm leaning towards a bed rug myself. I really wanted a ZR2 and looked at one on showroom floor, but the back seat just didn't have enough leg room for my 3 kido's (one still in car seat).

Curious why you went with bed cover instead of topper? I think the topper can do more, but am concerned lack of visibility in rear view mirror could be a bit annoying. Also, does your bed have the LED lighting under the rail? If you do, have you looked into splitting the wiring to run a plug for something like a fridge?

I was thinking of possibly one of the folding canvas topper brands

I just read your thread for the first time Red5 and I have to say its great to see you out there bashing that new truck off-road. I like your rack and other goodies you have installed. It looks like a capable truck that you are not afraid to enjoy. I am looking forward to seeing your future adventures and upgrades. Cheers, Chilli..

Any updates on this one now that you've got some miles on it? How's it holding up?

Best of Luck,

I think the ZR-2 is a serious alternative to the Tacoma. I have owned Toyota 4X4s since 1980 and I have to say, I think Toyota has a swing and a miss on the current generation Tacoma. If I was in the market for a mid size 4X4 the ZR 2 vs the Tacoma would be a tough choice to make. I did have a Chevy Blazer in the late 80s and for that reason I am still leery of GM quality. Hopefully the ZR 2 is comparable to Toyota now.

I do like your ZR 2.
