Hey HudsonZ - Interesting that you have progressed through 2 truck-based setups. At this stage in your game - could you elaborate on what prompted you to switch your setup. Also how & why you came about choosing the accc.

"these build-outs has truly made the Canopy Camper the ultimate midsize overland setup" I've been looking for a stretch on what rig I wanted to get for travel on roads a bit more challenging than just forestry roads. As soon as I saw the ACCC a few weeks back I knew that it would be - as you...

All great information. I am pumped. THX As it happens - a few hours ago I pulled the trigger on a one-owner local 2013 Access cab long box 4.0 automatic 4*4 Tacoma with 70k miles. And since OK4wd has a Black Monday sale this week - I just got off the phone to order the ACCC. DONE. Let the...

Very nice build. I am close to pulling the trigger on an accc. Could you post some photos of the back door with the new latch? Opened and closed. Several months in - are you happy with your latch mod and the reversed door? The funny thing, each person I spoke to about camping out the...

I talked to Sherpa. The racks sits 1/4 to 1/2" above the shark fin antenna. The A is 16" the B is 23" long. Is there anyone out there who has an Access cab with an accc mounted and could say if they figure an "Animas A" at 16" long would fit? https://sherpaequipmentco.com/shop/animas

THx Would MaxTrax fit on your rack? Ya - that table at 48" * 30 is plenty of real estate - for sure. Having a metal surface is a must as well. The table I have used is 24" * 48" and I am very happy with it - not too wide not too narrow - because too narrow (18") ends up being a PITA. I just...

Good to know. It looks like a good rack - Are you happy with it? What is it about the table that makes you like it so much?

WRT to the Alu C table, you would need to install the bracket before you install the accc (unless you want to remove the accc later - I guess) So I figure I will install the bracket and likely build my own table to fit in that space. To me it just makes sense to use that dead space with an...

I should have qualified that I will certainly have the Alu Cab table installed on the underside of the accc overhang which will eat up about 3" of the gap between the accc overhang and the top of the Access cab. So I don't figure a full-length roof rack will fit in that gap - and who needs a...

Very nice rig. I am just in the process of buying a Tacoma Access cab 6' box and going to fit the ACCC to it. Do you think this roof rack will fit with my rig (proposed)? https://sherpaequipmentco.com/shop/animas THX

THX for the help clarifying what my original inquiry actually asked - I tried to pose the question in a way that was as clear as possible. Some folks may have gone into the weeds. As expected it won't handle better. The onus is on the operator who needs to adjust (slow the f down) their...

Sure - I'll get right on it

"Far and away the best vehicle you've ever owned for doing what you are doing". That says a bunch - I'm almost sold - I test drive mine 80 next week. (800 miles away) My 8k lbs 2017 Transit has 63k miles of touring USA is on the original brakes are still good - I am very very easy on the...

"The premise is ridiculous. Of course an IFS 100 is going to handle better than a solid axle 80." You are 1000% correctomundos! However, the subject line asks "How Much worse is an 80 in an Emergency Maneuver (swerve) than a 100?"

& yes, inside vehicle safety however important could be another great question/post/thread! Simply put - this post (in an attempt to remain focused) is an inquiry into said differences between 2 vehicles. More out of general interest now - cuz a few days ago I've made my decision on what I'm...

Nope, don't believe the question reflects any form of overthinking anything more a form of curiosity - If you do not wish to participate in this endeavor - just move on Son - move the f on. Phil - Simply put - Yes, I am speaking of maneuverability of an 80 to a 100. It's what I wanted to know...

Great point - Sport20 - way to think outside the box. As it happens I was fell on my shoulder mountain biking a couple of months ago. I was driving a manual and could not put it in reverse with my right hand so I used my left. If it had been worse I would not have been able to drive away very...

As if any owner is gonna let you take one out for a proper test (who can blame them) - easier to pick people's brains and experiences - dissect the good from not so good - & move on.

Thanks for the reply AlanY - Just wanted to get a real-world input on the differences. You have answered just that. Todd - Nope not going to buy an 80 and a 100 to drive the f out of them to get a good sense of how they do. Not when AlanY has answered my inquiry so well without any cost. Britt -...

Overthinkin' safety - I think Not!
