    I got the 26", much less fancy than the other recent ones posted on TW. Essentially like the Chubby Unicorn but no insulation or interior skin, no roof vent, no security screens, and standard white color. I plan to do one drawer similar to the unicorn too.

    I wanted a skylight/moonroof but the flush vented windows are more pricey than the standard vents. I suggested a non sliding pet window on the roof but they have had them leak on the roof.

    My big hold up right is figuring out a place for a small air conditioner as we do a lot of fishing year around down south and it gets hot.

    I love this shell. Don't get mad at me, but, I'd like to get one and cut the top off and add a wedge camper on top.

    Awesome pics. Been following your Instagram adventures. How long were you on the road? Totally agree on getting there and being set up. It’s so easy and convenient. We don’t dread moving around because of having to tear down camp and all that jazz. Some of our good friends have a sports mobile and even for them it’s a whole ordeal to move camp. I also have those levelung blocks and totally agree they are great. And they fit perfectly on the side of my platform between the tailgate and wheel tub. They are just a bit below the top of the tub so they don’t interfere with the platform at all
