Possible group buy cap opportunity?

@Cattywumpuss

I wasn't able to stay up late enough last night to get specifics on shipping but will do so hopefully this evening. I had a long day and was out like a light by 945pm. She sent me a bunch of messages with further details and answers to some of the q's I've thrown her.

She did send me a better catalog of their products. This doesn't have the RTT's or awnings, though.

oh yeah, now I’m curious about the “kitchen box” too!

And when it has gone past I will turn to my bank account and see that it is whole. Where the parts-need has gone, there will be nothing. My food budget will remain."

LOL. Me too.

She's active right now but it's getting on 9pm there so not sure how much longer.

Pic of the kitchen box.

Right now they're only set up for pairs, so $380 for a pair of kitchen boxes. Asked her just now if they could do as

2 plain
2 kitchen
1 plain
1 plain, 1 kitchen.

She's going to check w her people and get back to me.

Was this the missing chapter from The Greatest Salesman in the World? LOL

Hmm. I like it, but I also feel like it could be a little janky. Hard to tell on the one photo.

I'll dig into this more myself today and see if anyone has a chinese topper with a flip out kitchen on the YouTubes.

 

[BourbonRunner]

And not the further muddy the waters, for the ones considering a RTT, some additional options.

Insulation, lighting, etc. Check the bottom of the page on the attached file for info and pricing.

She color coordinated the options for each tent. The color next to the tent corresponds to options available at the bottom of the page. The first wedge and the side tent have the least number of options. The bottom two (blue and green) can get way out there.

Post a link here if you find it.

Depending on the delta between the kitchen box and the standard box pricing, worst case remove the kitchen shelf thing and that's that.

Yea - the shelf on the kitchen box I like a bit more. Could always dumpster the rest depending on cost.

Agreed. It seems to be more practical since it's deeper.

My plan is to use E or L track inside anyway to tie in gear. I'm really hoping to get my chain saw into a side compartment but if not NBD. And if the shelves don't work? I'll recycle them into something else.

My other concern doing dual compartments is access to my traction boards. I have them on the molle panel on the cab wall currently. I don't want to display them on the truck for any reason but I also don't want to leave them at home either. I may try to rig something to mount them to the ceiling on the inside and put my fishing rod holders on the vertical interior of the compartments. Decisions, decisions.

So - not exactly the same, but a place called 'Banger Overland' must be selling Chinese caps.

I am sure this one functions similarly. This video should go to approximate time frame he shows his flip out kitchen.

The arms are shakey AF - and as I figured you'd lose a good bit of storage at expense of this table folding up in there. I don't think its a viable trade off.

Debt is the American way.

Another point:

Most of the RTT's are done in MOQ of 5 where as there is no MOQ on the caps.

There's nothing guaranteed but she will take any requests to her factory for consideration.

I just priced that out on the website in the YouTube link. I really like the flushed in aux camp site/reverse lights.

For a JT cap with a sliding window, $3685 then another $750 for their kitchen box and $250 for cross bars. $5500 plus shipping.

At that price point just bite the bullet and get a SmartCap and a couple HF LED pods to bolt on it.

Haha, I did the same thing. No price comparison to what your doing.
I do like the little wing/kickout thingy on the back of the canopy, but not for the price difference.
