    Truck Cap frustrations

    There are all sorts of great things about driving older cars, but parts availability isn't one of them. I've called leer, are, snugtop, vista, superior and no one makes a fiberglass campershell for an 85 toyota longbed. Even flippac doesn't make one for my truck. All I'm looking for is a...

    Exactly how does a RTT work?

    By this I don't mean how it sets up or functions, but how it works in conjunction with existing roof rack attachments and load capacity. For example, some of the eezi-awns I've looked at have a 1000lb load capacity, yet most roof racks top out at 300 lbs. How does this work. I ask because...

    Question for Pinzgauer owners

    I'm thinking about adding a pinz to the stable, but there are a couple of deal breakers for me and more importantly my better half. What is a realistic crusing speed for the freeway, and how loud is it in the cab at said speed. Also, do you get any engine fumes in the cab? Thanks.
