Tacoma Roof Rack Questions

[Dave Bennett]

before i got the at flippac idea in my head, i had near the same $ amount invested into rtt, bed rack, canopy, roof rack, awning, etc...as i just put into the atfp. I also had a higher cog, was carrying more weight, and had far less usable interior space compared to what i have now.

I also have a lower and slightly narrower overall profile with the atfp.

Wasurf...How much narrower is the ATFP than your previous setup?

The AT Flippac is flush mounted with the truck bedrails.
The bedrack on the previous setup hung outward over the rails about 4-5".
I would also guess that the ATFP is about 6" lower in overall height than my previous Columbus RTT mounted to the bedrack.

A RTT mounted to a shell will be considerably higher and less aerodynamic than an ATFP

Not sure on how high up ou are going to have your tent but don't forget to take in consideration for the window awnings too.
