    I run a 23zero 72" Walkabout. Sleeps 2 adults and 2 kids up top. I have it on a Alu-cab Explorer canopy. I love that setup. The canopy is real handy with all the available accessories. See my other post above though regarding my weight loaded. This is before I upgraded my suspension:

    I thought every Tacoma came stock with an RTT. At least ones around me, every single one of them has an RTT and hilift & shovel mount. All pristine looking like they’ve never been used. :rofl:

    Some people find good uses for them that are well justified. I could never see the value in them. But I’m old school and grew up camping in ground tents. Ol 12x14 canvas tent still works awesome and we’ve got plenty of room for the entire fam.

    By the way, if you do get an RTT, get some of those bed stiffeners as well.

    That would be awesome. I'm just curious as to how much space is under the bars and above.

    I agree on the stock suspension not being enough. So far all I have is a shell on the back, and the tail is sagging as well.

    You like that free spirit? I tend to see a lot of them. Thought about looking into those instead of a cvt or one of many others.

    Got a Smittybuilt Overlander for about $300 on BidFTA.com (local auction). It's worked out great so far.
