    I would love to test this out, I have actually been checking the site to see if a release date had been posted yet. I am planning on doing an OBDR trip in June and wanted to get something like this for the trip.

    Right now my truck is used as my daily driver for work, fun in the desert on the weekends and to take my dogs into the desert to run around. Additional uses are to haul stuff around for home improvements and store my EDC gear.

    I don't know if I would be the most perfect fit for this but I would be a good sample for all around use. I also spend a lot of time on TW during the day so I would be on here able to answer questions promptly and professionally.

    Would love to test it out as well! Always wanted one but could never pull the trigger! I use my truck as a daily driver and the bed is always half. I am a truck dispatcher out here in NV always running around town (snow or shine). Also a lake junky, try to get out every weekend. Be awesome to have a storage system.

    I would be very interested in testing out this product for you as well.

    Just picked up the truck today and I'm coming from a WRX hatchback, I feel like I could give a unique perspective on the product as a first time truck owner, and as a semi avid outdoorsman.

    I frequently try to go fly fishing on West Virginia streams all over the state, and I come into contact with many people during my job of cell phone sales, and MANY Tacoma owners in my guard unit.

    Here's the truck!

    Nothin' fancy here...just a simple daily driver that aspires to be an overland daily driver.

    I'll gladly give it a great white northern test.
    Although I do work as an electrician by trade I don't often use it much for work but I do use it for play a lot.

    Would be great for storing my camping gear and recovery gear.

      1. I would be totally willing to install and test a DECKED system in my Tacoma.
      2. I would be willing and able to start and maintain a thread to answer questions going into great detail in a professional manor.
      3. As an avid Mountain Biker/Outdoorsman I feel the Decked system would work perfectly in storing my muddy bike gear, my camera equipment, and camping supplies.

    I can get you a pix. But, you already know what an awesome 'Inferno' DCLB with a canopy and a Front Runner rack looks like. :)

    Here's why I'm a good pick - I have a really nice homemade system - I'd like to replace it to see how it compares to my system. I want to replace because I want something I can easily wash down. Mine is done in indoor/outdoor carpet over plywood.

    And, I'm in Vancouver BC so you'd have someone in Canada as a guinea pig! I'm happy to pick up in WA if that's easier for ya.

    @TheDECKEDGuy I have been waiting so patiently so these to come out, was trying to save my $ but so many other upgrades kept come out of the woodwork. My son and I just took our first Taco trip from Canada to Ouray CO to Moab Ut while sleeping in the back in a quickly built lifted platform. Didn't want to get too crazy with building it expecting that the decked system was coming soon!
    I'll write up a great thread and answer all those questions coming my way, hell - it's going to get tested from -40* to +90* all year long up here in Canada.

    Man I'm so stoked to hear that you guys are finally making these for the Taco!!!! I've been begging, pleading (ok, and even pestering) you guys to do one every since I bought mine 2 years ago!

    Here's why I should be picked:
    1. I'm awesome. I hear you're awesome as well. Sounds like a perfect match.
    2. I've been drooling over these systems for over 4 years now, and begging for one for my Taco for 2 years (I'm even going to post a picture where I was asking you guys about it July 2015 just to prove it!)
    3. I have stuff that needs to be stored! Tools, guns, camping gear, the occasional need for a specialty drawer full of beer and ice for tailgating!
    4. I need a system that can support my ATV on top while I'm doing all that stuff above!
    5. I had to buy a traditional roll-up cover to protect my stuff since the Decked system wasn't available yet and I haven't been happy with how it's holding up. It's time for an upgrade!
    6. It'll give me brownie points with my hot wife. Need I say more?

    Ok...picture time:
