    Yes! We are fully stocked up.

    Shipping lead time currently is ~2 weeks. We are just working our way through a big backlog of pre-orders. Cheers,

    Sorry that's an error in our shipping policy. Thanks for pointing that out. Unfortunately these VSS Systems are too expensive for us to ship for free!

    We are still incurring shipping costs for the customers even when we charge for shipping, so we certainty are not making any money there!

    Went from 3rd Gen Taco to 3GT4R to 2nd Gen Taco and finally a V8 4GT4R.
    Any chance you'll make something for a 3rd gen 4runner?

    We actually just installed a dual 40 watt system on a 3rd gen 4Runner. The 40 watt panels are not yet on our website but if you're interested send me a PM and I can get you sorted out. Cheers,

    For anyone interested here is a great overview by one of our customers the F-150 panel is the same as the 3rd Gen Taco panel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRv3dx8kDBQ

    Checking in to see how those who installed one of these are liking it. My truck sits outside 24/7, so my single AGM battery could benefit from a little extra juice.

    @medicfung It was surprisingly easy to install. instructions are on point, the only thing i had help with was laying the panel on. probably could have done it myself though. a small step stool will do wonders!

    @joesrcool I have a single AGM and i've had my fridge (ICECO JP30) running for 2 months with no issues

    Unfortunately not for the VSS Systems. We do offer 15% off on all of our winch accessories though :thumbsup:
