    Changed a couple items but this is a good idea of the outcome, some minor changes might come but only if needed. I will reuse my prinsu rack from the topper, so that will be my roofrack. Working on another version of this canopy as well before I start finishing up the camper

    Black will keep heat some more. And itll scratch. Just a thought to keep in mind. But I do think it'd go better

    Psh, no one cares about heat retention. Its all about how good I look at starbucks :D

    But yes it will scratch at some point, but it may receive some vinyl.

    Will likely happen, I might change up the wrap after this gets here.

    RTT should land in LA on the 4th on june (the day we get back haha) and the tray and canopy will take roughly a month to build so maybe end of july it will be in my hands. But I may order two if I can find an interested party, along with some RTTs. Ill know more once it gets closer to completion

    Tray back canopies can literally be for anything you like in any configuration. People build campers inside of them and others just use them for storage of gear with fridge and cooker slides.

    I mean you could sleep in it I guess, but just storage. Once it lands I'm going to mock up a couple of different interior layouts, possibly outfit them for those that want a turn key setup with a hardshell RTT.
