That came out pretty cool, not Cee-Camp cool, but still pretty cool. You guys could pull off sometching like this, then give me one for the encouragement.

I have the 4 person gazelle and love it. Waaay better quality than what you expect for the price and it is very well thought out. The bowed out walls give you the entire floor space, I’m 6’4 and walk around in it. Removable floor is nice, the fly goes on super easy, without the fly you get...

I just put one of these on my truck. It’s handy for other things as well. You could put the short one HB sells on the roof or on the bumper. YouTube has videos of people doing just that and adding an ATV winch instead of a hand crank.

Same people hating on it are probably sitting on the porch yelling at the kids to get off their lawn. I think you nailed it though, it will probably work for a vast majority of truck owners. The haters will come around when they see a Skottle and rotopacs strapped to it, trasharoo would leak...

Conclusion... it’s kind of like the motorsailer of the truck cap world. Where the motorsailer does not motor well nor sail well. While open it does look to have about as much space as a full shell. I don’t like shells for the reason mentioned above, poor visibility. Loved the cap on my old...

That probably answers the question on how well they will do in the states.

That actually might be the look they are going for except the RTT crowd might feel left out. Looking at the bed of the f150 I don’t think that thing is meant to haul much more than groceries. The whole bed is behind the rear axel.

What don’t you like about it?

I do too but without the louvered back window. Unless it was a Shelby version then definitely louvered. https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/news/a33542/shelby-f-150-super-snake/

https://www.mivehiclesolutions.com/aero-x-conversion-kit/ Looks like it could be practical for camping. Like a cross between a bed cap and shell. I’ve seen something similar in other countries, it will be interesting to see if it catches on here in the US.

I just switched to T6 from T5 and difference is noticeable. Way smoother and seems to warm up faster.

I use my Rigid light for cooking and seting up camp at night. It’s dimable, tough, and can be pointed wherever you need it...

Those are nice and tasteful upgrades which should put you at the higher end of the price range. In Southern CA that would list for 18-19k and probably sell for around 15ish pretty quick. That is a great platform for covering some miles on and off-road.

What’s the word on the street about this 3.0 diesel? The Nissan seems like a lot of truck for the money but what stuck out to me is the 100k mile warranty, that’s impressive. https://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/a26013072/non-hd-diesel-trucks/...

Ford is building a hybrid f150. Diesel would make since.

Charging times will get faster and batteries will be able to be swapped. Why not charge overnight if you are not driving, that’s one less stop.

Or hack a power line. Those things are everywhere.

It’s a US truck. You will be lucky to get 50 miles into the bush, 400 miles off grid doesn't exist in the states.
