Northern Virginia Roll Call

So does this mean the Ford jokes are done?

 

I recently just ditched my tonneau cover on my truck as I now have an RTT on the back which is of more use. Back when I first got my tonneau cover, I was big into RC planes and so I would stash my planes back there as they could be strapped down and safe from the elements.

When not flying though, my bed was mostly just a junk bin for moving blankets and stuff as I just never cleared it out. To me the tonneau cover served its purpose, but for once my bed actually has a purpose with an RTT. I don't ever have anything in my bed, so a cap to me is a waste and since I got an RTT I wouldn't want to risk long term failure/MPG with an RTT on top of a glass cap without steel reinforcement.

I agree with the others, I don't think the tonneau cover will be of use to you, and I think with the color it could go pretty quick.

 

Good morning fella's. It's been a while.

 

NEVERRRRRRR

I actually debated on this.... but Mr. Bean > Backstreet Boys

 

Yea I wont be installing a RTT at all (since a 1 year old puts a surprisingly HUGE damper on your camping expeditions).... but I was thinking about just selling it and trying to pick up an OEM roof rack so I can occasionally toss some extra cargo on there.....or hell, maybe I'll end up getting a topper for it and toss the dog back there when we take trips....

 

I used to have the OEM roof rack. If you plan to load more than 100 pounds then I would look into a more serious rack. I plan to hopefully get a prinsu, just need to see if my current light bar mounts can fit on around the rack.

 

Should have asked... I didn't think you wanted it rewelded and keep it. Oh well, live and learn.

 

He wouldnt do it for me. Its ok

 

I thought Prinsu had a cut out for a light bar, you just need to purchase it separately.

**EDIT**

Yup, there it is:

Bottom middle.

 

@Coot83 has a 50" curved light bar I think..

I just got the biggest cut out possible for mine. 40"

 

Ah ok, cutout is max at 40" it said.

 

Good job, now a backstreet boys album is under our products discussed...

 

whoever comes into this thread, will instantly want to leave

 

Bummer for me the link didn't work for some reason, but yea I got a 52" straight light bar. My hope is I can shave down the front spacers a little and slightly bend my light bar mounts to clear the rack as it is quite bendable. We will see if I can get over to @Lots2Learn58's pad soon.

 

Well get your order in!

 

I was talking about me.

 

I thought you told me you dont have a Tig welder

 

Doesn't have to be tig. Spool gun works the same. Same process different tool. May not be as "pretty" as tig, but would be equally as strong.
