Yesterday I picked up my Venturous from the dealer. Install was super smooth (this dealer is excellent).

I had my expectations set accordingly for the fit and finish. Exterior paint is excellent. However, you can tell the windows are custom assembled and the interior mold edges are a little rough. I knew this is how it would look since I checked it out in person before ordering. Purely aesthetic.

I got the following options:
  1. Textured matte black paint (matches the hard top very well)
  2. Fold down front slider window (makes it easy to clean between cap and cab)
  3. Vented slider windoors on both sides
  4. Light gray interior
  5. Rhino rack tracks

Next up:
  1. Install 12V LED lighting. I'm going to try out this RGB underglow kit I found on Amazon. 2x 60" self-adhesive strips + 2x 36" strips all already wired up with a remote. The topper came with some extra pigtails to attach to the power distribution block in the back right corner which should make it easy to wire up.
  2. Figure out what rack I want on top. I have the Rhino Rack rails installed which should accept any feet for crossbars or a platform. Crossbars are lighter and easier to attach a RTT, a platform is more useful overall.
I am planning to order the exact same Ozark options. How did the textures matte black turn out? Does the windoor slider window include a screen?

I would be interested in one of these to swap out my ARE Topper. Never thought I would want a roof top tent till now and the ARE is not worth gambling with.. Would love one of the campers out there, but this seems to fit my budget better. Requested a quote for one in white from the local dealer. Will see how the numbers work out...

The textured black is very close in color and texture to the hardtop. From 10ft they look identical. If you get close the texture density is slightly different but hardly enough to matter.

Yes the windoor sliders have screens
