Anything is possible but no plans for that as of right now. I do like the campers without the panels though. On the long bed campers my thought is that the extra height is very beneficial inside without much downside. I’m hoping this size works out because I think a 4-door long bed full size is the ultimate family camper. it’ll go most places most people take their Tacomas and there is a massive amount of room inside this thing.
Good to know. Thanks. Love this build!
I feel like that would need to be avocado green with fake wood paneling and call it “The Family Huckster” and yes it would be an epic family camper
Looks sweet. I like it
Update on the big red truck. Took the prototype 8ft camper out to Oregon to visit family for thanksgiving. Only spent one cold (18 deg F) night in it but so far prospects are looking good for this becoming a production model. I’ll be taking it down to Baja for some more serious testing at the end of December. But so far so good.
Fitment was all good. Ford doesn’t get too wild on the shapes and sizes of their full-sized beds.
To give you an idea of how big this thing is downstairs, look how tiny the tent is comparatively. That’s the normal XL sized upper. So much room.
Cold morning in Southern Idaho.
The temporary “buildout”. I like to keep things pretty simple.
This makes me so happy! Long time coming. When do you think we can realistically look at ordering these?
Did you choose the Fox shocks over the King shocks for any reason?
Availability primarily. I like Kings as well.
We should know by the end of January if this can become an official model added to the model release list. How long it will take from there to be officially ready for production will depend on how the backlog of model releases is looking.
Sounds good, thanks!
I’m in Bozeman, I’ll be down to be a guinea pig. 2018 Ram 2500 8’ bed.
Rad. Seriously Rad. Perfect setup for hauling a race car.
so rad! Let me know when the 8’x8’ RTT comes out. my DRW flatbed needs it
Any update on if this is gonna go to production? Been biting my nails with anticipation.
It appears I need to start looking for a pickup with an 8’ bed!
Don’t have a timeline yet, but it’s definitely going into production. We need to make a few small tweaks to the design, but structurally it is all good to go. So it will be added to the model rollout queue very soon. It’s an amazing amount of space.
Are the extrusions for the RTT machined on the same equipment you weren’t sure could fit the rails? Is that why you didn’t do a cabover? I wished GFC would do a longer cabover for 6.5’ beds so you’d have more access to the full bed. Nice to see you all pushing the envelope!
Just put down my deposit. I have a 2019 F350 CCLB. Patiently waiting (sort of ) for a super amazing camper… WOOHOO!!! Looking forward to the updates. You all rock!
So they are taking deposits now for longbeds?
Not technically, but I took upon myself to be the annoying guy that shot over my $500. You know… a little additional motivation. Not like these guys are busy or anything (insert sarcasm emoji here)!!! I’m not a very virtuous person, I believe patience is a choice. So patient I will be.
