    I want a cap on my bed, but I don't want to pay current cap prices :mad:

    I've thought about a softopper, but I'm not sold on it.

    I didn't buy a 4runner because they don't come with manual transmission.


    Did I win first in thread to brag about driving a manual??:crapstorm:

    I think it's because I'm insecure about my inability to commit decisions and I don't want to advertise that with my removable/noncommittal topper :rofl:

    I guess one actual concern I have would be if I'm loading it up to the brim, I'd feel more confident in the sides of a solid topper withstanding the side-load when cornering compared to the canvas and snaps of a softopper.

    I get you. I had some worries before ordering, but it exceeded my expectations. I even thought that I would remove it for the summers and quickly put it back on after the first try.

    The frame is pretty stout and the canvas adds support under tension. I had it completely loaded for a trip to AZ through the Cali coast including 1 and 101 the whole way. Never a worry even when overcooking a couple corners.

    I'd have 600 pounds of snow in my box that would turn into water in my garage then ice in my box. Rinse and repeat. :laugh:

    It sure would. I'd probably have one if they still made 'em.
    My buddy in college had a manual 2nd gen 4runner. I didn't appreciate how cool it was at the time, it just seemed like some old hand-me-down SUV from his parents.

    A friend of mines mom had a late 80’s 4Runner, I always wanted one but never had one. Would love to have one with the removable top.

    Anybody seen these lockable covers? They look cheap and flimsy but a good idea and better than the plastic ones. Found these on the flea bay.

    Not bad. It looks like it would be easy to add a gasket?

    Does the camlock engage with the new covers or in the existing box?

    How much?

    Linky? :D

    I ran a "Works" [brand] corded leaf blower from mine once... worked ok; but was definitely not at 100%... more like 75% but for the situation it worked and was far superior to the alternative (Broom and dust pan)

    Oh yeah, the hedge trimmer worked great from the bed plug, I used it maybe 5 minutes total though.

    Shortly after getting my truck a friend asked for help trimming the bottom off a door.
    With some quick and very inaccurate mental math to calculate watts, I thought I could run my skilsaw off the bed outlet. Did not work :anonymous:
