    F that. I have a queen size air mattress and queen size 3.5" memory foam/gel topper. I essentially sleep on a Tempur-Pedic bed while camping.

    And I would be paranoid sleeping in a RTT in a random parking lot in a random town.

    My topper leaks like a sieve and I barely fit in the bed of my truck comfortably.

    They're not for everybody. I built my own purely for what I needed at the time which was the option of dual layer storage and a place to mount my RTT if I didn't take my trailer. I had no idea there would be the kind of interest in them that there has been. I'm glad people have liked the design enough that they've asked me to build some. they're a fun project.

    Disagree. Looks just like coolant buildup.

    My POS topper has bolts on the bottom of the topper edge in the corners. Worst design ever.

    Impossible to seal up even with weatherstripping.

    Have you check out the bajacamper thread where the guy sealed his up from dust?

    I drained my coolant 2 months ago and not a spec of oil was in it. The stuff on the cap is a greenish tint almost like the coolant has cyrstalized. ? Any problems?
