Well since i'm the thread originator, i guess if i answer your "Van" Q i'm not really hijacking the thread? HaHa... Here goes; WE LOVE VANS! We began with a 2010 Chevy Express 1500 AWD that i sold the TACO to purchase (i actually recouped 100% of my original price plus a bit). The Chevy, which...

My red-taco buld with the ARE shell had a bed platform with easy under-platform storage for camp gear. We also used a Truck Tentz out the rear through the ARE's man-door. One thing we liked about that particular shell was we noticed very little trail dust. It was an enjoyable setup for short...

It will be nice to get the rear-seat-weight from some TACO builder to know just how much 'payload' we could have access to :) On the additional ~500lb apparent payload dif between the OR and the TH, i'd like to find the why/how of the additional available payload. I'm not recalling the Toyota...

THX for the corrections...I've looked at so many canopy camber style set-ups i get the brands mixed up at times. On "Payload", i am also thinking there should be some weight saved by removing the rear TACO seat also, as it is just my wife and I.

Totally. Earlier i shared "300lb occupancy" for my wife and I, fortunately we are two fit, trim, light weight retired boomers. I did some research a while back on the M1. (edit... M1 is a soft side pop-up, for some reason i got it mixed up w/another which had looked at) Thom

I grabbed this from the "Payload" thread in this area of the forum... This sticker clearly states; "The combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed" ... then it lists the payload, in this case of 1270lbs. And if that is so, i would quickly run out of payload if i place a simple...

My wife & I are planning our next adventure rig for simple 2-to-3-week trips mainly in our SW USA backyard area. Many of canopy camper builds look interesting... BUT... I'm one of those OCD types that maybe digs too deep while in the research mode, and the #1 thing on my mind is this; is it...

I viewed several pages/videos and the LP looks nice, (though i'm partial to the idea of Alu-Cab's rear door/wall). Do you know if the windows on the tent have an option for clear vinyl layer also?

My wife and I had an 07' TACO w/6ft bed and had many a fun adventure. We then built up two vans for our adventure use, still have one of them... but the call of getting a weee bit further up the trails is calling. Seeing many of the recent TACO TRD Off-Road YT reviews have renewed the idea of...
