    There are no current plans for side windows, as there is not enough clearance with the frame, plus the added weight detracts from the whole goal of this camper.

    With a nice flat panel, I am sure some people will devise options to do something about side windows anyways.

    Also, I want to say they are working on a device to hold the side panels partially open, but secured for dog ventilation.

    Understand the need for lightweight, but I'm sure the number of campers with dogs looking for a solution would be fine with a few extra lb's. Thinking more about this, it could just be a smaller panel within the panel that pops out and replaced with a screen panel. Another good up-sell to ad to the list. Increased air-flow during the hot camping season would be a big plus.

    Was wondering about Que number. I paid in full about 10 days ago and Graeme mentioned I was some where in September but never did get a waiting list number (maybe they aren't doing it anymore)?

    I'm DEFINITELY going to be taking advantage of the 'white glove delivery'. I can't drive to Montana for $250 bucks and it will save me a weeks worth of road tripping. I'm expecting a call any day to ask me about how I want it built.....

    Last I knew I was order #25!!!

    Other than the nicer looking smaller gap between the roof and overhang, is there an appreciable advantage to using the KB Voodoo bed rail caps?

    I am #16 and have also opted for White glove delivery. He mentioned a week after the big parking lot affair (overland expo west) my GFC could be delivered. But nothing is in stone. Not too worried.

    That sounds about right. I was told mid-June and that fits with 15 or so units after yours.

    I'm also not sweating it too much.

    None.
    Has anyone verified if it fits with the CAbrac? I was going to go with a RTT and bed rack but now I'm eyeing this since it's easier to get and cheaper than a Flippac

    I love the graphics for the satin black GFC. I am liking this option, I was contemplating going with color matched but this looks so good. :boom:

    I thought that it was said that the t slots in the GFC are a different size than the bed accessory rail?

    Yes. I bought a set of the accessory rail T nuts. They are really nice, and like you said, less expensive than the ones that I was looking at on Amazon.

    I have them on my bicycle fork mounts but have not tested them out with the bikes yet.

    Can the internal dimensions be posted on the first page of this thread? Im curious if a mountain bike will fit with the front wheel taken off.
