B/A for a Defender . . . or any other vehicle with a FIXED ROOF . . . this puts a damper on so many of the Reasons we buy a Wranglers/Gladiators in the 1st place ! Now with some modifications (more $$$) you could maybe have some cake and eat it too ?
But Wait, there's more . . . just back from the future, where I saw a comment by Eddie on a Forthcoming 2020 NEW ALU-CAB > CANOPY-CAMPER POPUP TENT ! Base weight in the area of ~500-lbs. ? That will be better known once THEY Finalize the Fit & Finish of the GLADIATOR Version of this NEW Canopy-Camper popup ! I'm bookmarked and eager to learn more . Yea, yea I know . . . I already knocked the other post's "heavy Canopy only" product ! But this will have to do (for me) since I can no longer Find the LEENTU WebSite . . .
, apparently it has been taken down & not sure if the company is having financial issues or what ? So from the LEENTU aluminum/composite Canopy-Camper of ~300lbs. to (possibly) an all aluminum one of ~500lbs. (+200) . ? Yes I'm aware of the "others," but I don't like them . One important & unique feature of this Alu-Cab is how it is mounted - NOT on the Bed Walls via the accessory tie down system . This is mounted to the floor of the bed - much stronger and secure & potentially water tight sealing around the rear swing-open door, which is also nice . This might be adaptable for a Wrangler type drop down table (food prep++) ! Though the Go Fast is lighter, it is "flimsy" in the side hatches department and by nature is "top heavy" (in & of itself) . Of course this changes plans as far as WHICH Gladiator . . . thinking NOW I need to go with the Full Tow Package on a Sport S . 
Your thinking of the CANOPY ONLY ITEM . . . I'm referring to their all new CANOPY-CAMPER -- it's like the Go Fast Camper, WITH the pop up Tent All-Inclusive ! Yea NICE ! No more dealing with RTT LADDERS . . . Access up into the tent portion much like an Ursa Minor . . . SEE ? They already have it for the Tacoma's of the world - you can see video's of it ! It's the NEW GLADIATOR Fit Design coming in 2020 (early I hope) that Weighs in at ~ 500 ! Perhaps you could YouTube a video or 2 & download - of course it'll be on a Taco most likely, but . . . yea .
define canopy please.
1. how do you enter the tent?Hopefully these photos show up . . . All-Cab Canopy Camper coming in 2020 for the Gladiator (via their website) . thee are some videos via YouTube but I don't know how to download those . . .
There are other photos, but I wanted to leave something "to the imagination" . . .
Looks like they are more of a slide in type topper. Very close to what I am looking for. I didn't find any price tags on them. Anyone have ballpark pricing?
OH right. The whole camper thing just slides into the existing box? Makes sense.
Steffen what I’m referring to is this...
You enter the tent from the rear of the canvas wall if that makes sense. This would mean that you could not have the wrap around awning deployed as shown in some of their pictures.. Another reason I will not be getting it.
Actually they are not a slide in. If you look at the interior pictures you can see the bed of the pick up truck. They do remove the rear tailgate and have a nice hinged door to allow better access to your drawer set if you were to put one in there.
OK, now that I've given this some time . . . I'll "weed-out" some of the "lazy questions" -- by the way, NO pun intended on the "weed-out"
! 
Anyone looking for a well kept Kodiak Canvas tent - 9ft x 8.5ft x 6ft1inch (height) ?. 
Perfect. You and I are on the same page. I want their explorer canopy too so I can still use the truck as a truck when need be. I don't have an RTT yet but intend to.
you got me. =) But i'm not all talk.
I really am going to get something like the alu-cab explorer canopy.i emailed them 4 months ago and also tonight to find out about the availability of alu-cab. I haven't checked out the videos, i'll look into that.
