Hondo Garage's New Thing

... and email from Graeme arrived today for payment.

Paid. You guys scared me for a second asking for a check.

 

How embarrassing

 

Here's to lost checkbooks, postal trucks spontaneously combusting and corrupted bank account data. Except for mine of course.....

 

Boom paid. Had to to CC since it's 2018 and I haven't seen a checkbook since 2001 or so. Was really torn on windows as I like rear visibility but without ever seeing one with 'em hard to say yes

 

13th on the list and 8th paid.. I think thats what the numbers mean. I cant wait!

 

How did you tell which # of the paid?

 

i went without windows because... "out of sight, out of mind"

I was confirmed pay #00080... Hoping im #8 and not #80 lol

 

Also, did we ever get an update if the Prinsu cab rack will 100% fit under the camper shell that overhangs to the cab? If not, I have some cutting to do..

 

Not sure what the #’s mean? I was #24 on the original deposit list and am now #72 after final payment which was submitted at 8:00 am pacific time.

 

I would assume the numbers are just continuing on from the preorder number count, and relatively meaningless.

Last deposit was #68 that we know of in here, my order was #78, so guessing I am the 10th who paid. Or maybe they got a couple more preorders in that time frame, who knows.

 

The final payment numbers generated by our shopping cart software don't really mean anything since a lot of people are paying by check. Starting next week Graeme will be sending out emails letting people know where they're at in the build queue. We're also building out a system that will send customers updates with photos of their GFC as it moves through the build process.

 

Cool concept and stout looking materials.
$5000 is a good pricepoint. I paid $5500 for my flippac with windoors.
For those considering this product if dust is a concern I would highly suggest getting a bedrug kit. The composite beds of the 2nd/3rd gen Tacomas allow for a lot of dust intrusion.

 

Any chance we can get an interior photo of an individual standing and/or photo without the sleeping panels in place?

 

And just as a heads up, starting March 1 we move into our new shop to set up the production line.

Once we get the new tent sides finished (hopefully next week) I'll shoot some photos.

 

From their email this morning:

 

I was at the hatchery on Tuesday, and I snapped a pic of the spacing btw the wheel and the shark fin. I didn’t get out and measure it but from looking at my taco with the shark fin, I would say that it will fit, but there might be a possibility of it touching on the outsides of the rack. Might need to do a little cutting, or I guess it depends on how fast one drives around on trails. That will determine the bed flex/movement, which should be amplified on the outside faces of the bed.



Received my invoice this morning, debating whether to pay in full right now or hold off a bit. I was leaning more towards picking it up in May and doing a short trip in the Montana area. Hmm, decisions.

What’s the possibility for selling the tent only portion? I have much more time, and fab skills than I do money. So buying just the tent portion would be a budget friendly option for me lol

 

I believe that was an option or was going to be.
