    The tent portion is sealed to the space frame, taking it off the frame to use it as an RTT would require cutting the sealant off (and then the doors would fall off). It would end up being a very un-weather-proof canopy.

    And having a solid floor means you would have to enter the GFC through a side door. The main method of getting in the tent is up through the floor with one of the panels moved to the side.

    I mean, with enough work it could be done. But you'd be undoing a lot of the effort of the GFC folks. At that point I'd probably just build my own like that one guy did.

    I wanted to. DCSB Tacos are just so expensive. Cheapest I could find was $12K here, vs. $4K for the T4R.

    Well dang. Why you have to be such a knowledgeable downer? :pout:

    Would probably have to bob the front as my first project.

    Wait. Just realized. I already saved a "GFC amount" of money on the 4Runner. So the GFC is free now? :D

    Genius.:yes:

    Yeah, cut the roof center out and make a tent for the top. If you actually do this I want naming rights.

    I'm torn, the runner is a nicer vehicle, but the GFC fits his vibe better...

    Yeah. The suspension options and the power alone is tempting.
