    Here's a sneak peek behind the curtain...

    Prototype is getting dialed in....probably hitting production after SEMA and being available during Christmas time. More teaser shots to come.

    We know many of you guys have shells and covers...but still many of you ride motorcycles, mountain bikes, quads, snowmobiles, etc OR just need to keep your bed open AND need MORE ROOM! This new equipment will make the most of the Tacoma, space and capability wise.

    Does that have feet resting on the roof? Otherwise it looks like there wouldnt be enough beef to hold much up there only being mounted to the plastic bed.

    Good question.

    Nothing touching the roof. No drilling, all uses factory mounting points.

    Actually, the rack is feeling stiffer than the one for big trucks.

    For the weight rating we have, we're super confident in the structure Toyota has. Testing so far has proven it way stronger than we had thought.

    The Navy Seals have a few right now...they should be very hard on them.

    That's what the light bar is for...that integrates into the fairing. ;) The rest however, is pure function.

    ... too short for that.

    Make it longer and have it hinged so that it can flip back and have legs that tie down onto those bed rail thingies/runners. It can be both a cab rack and a bed rack. Then you can add modular accessories too.

    $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    ... and powder coat it red.

    50" is too short? Man, that is a lot of gear! We aren't looking to get out to the windshield.
    Be careful what you wish for idea wise. We have more coming than pictured here. :fingerscrossed:

    I thought so just by looking at what appears to be a hinge and gusset braces in this pic:

    [​IMG]

    ... and the holes in the bed rails are there for a reason too. ;)

    maybe have that cab rack so it can flip around and hang at the same height but above the bed in case one already has a cab rack a little extra storage o hold a spare of something
