    I do like the quality alot, however, still waiting on someone from customer service to email me back regarding some brackets for the track so I can actually install it

    I will be watching this too. Would like to see more detail on how this attaches to the truck. I am also curious as how the cross bars on top fit into the rack itself, and what prevents water leakage. As a whole, I like this rack a lot, looks good and appears to be well made.

    Please post more pictures, after seeing this its what I have been looking for, a soft topper with the ability to mount a RTT without the need for a separate bed rack. Price range is also fair imo.

    The crossbars on top are mounted onto top of the wildtop frame. The side flaps and windows can be rolled up and are held up by 2 straps with the use of magnets.

    Thanks for the pics! This sure looks good, I like it a lot! Makes me rethink spending 4K plus on a fiberglass cap, although the cap probably has a longer life span ahead of it....

    Yikes if you are going to spend that much , look
    Into an Alu cab or rsi smart cap . Fiberglass so heavy and less you can do with them

    Yes, almost everything has doubled in price over the last few years or so. I currently have an ARE MX cap on my older 2011 Taco, bought it new in 2019 or so for about 2K, now, same cap for my new 2023 Taco is coming in at 3.6K, plus install, and then adding Bedrug etc, one is right at 4K pretty quickly.

    I have looked at Alu Cab and the RSI Smart Cap as well as a few others, and while similar base price, once adding in a few extras, they get just as pricy, if not more too. There are pros and cons with each one, I am just trying to pick the best one that suits my needs, and the MX cap in the past has done that, plus giving me the extra head room when sleeping in the back of it. It just makes me look a bit closer at what else is out there that will do the job for less, if possible, and maybe decide more based on needs instead of the wants. Certainly less weight added to a Taco is usually a very good thing, and the Wild-Top is really nice in that regard.

    I am seriously considering one of these to replace my Softtopper. Can you tell me exactly how it attaches to the bed? Does it clamp to the c channel bed rails?

    Don’t see much support on the inside for the canvas from flapping around . How does it hold up on the highway ?

    It's great, no rattles at all. There's metal bars that slide through the length of the flap towards the bottom to prevent flapping. Found a video of a wild top on a jeep if anyone wants to see a walk-around

    There were additional colors announced as well. I wish they were available when I bought mines. I would've went with khaki or green
