Hi Brian, thanks so much for sharing your build. It looks great. I am contemplating the same set up, with a 2016 Tacoma DCLB and a FWC/ATC camper. Just one question for you. Any concerns with payload? It seems like with a DCLB 4x4, your max payload is only around 1100 pounds, which means...

Thanks, Dan. Great input. I think I'm sold on the Toyota, just not sure whether I'll get the access cab or the double cab long bed. I wish they made a DCLB TRD Off Road, and then my mind would probably be made up. With my intent to do some more serious off road travel in Central and South...

Appreciate all the quick and valuable feedback! Two things really jumped out at me: 1. The longer wheelbase of the Double Cab Long Bed negates some of what I thought were the advantages of having a Tacoma. Really want both the double cab (plan to add a lab someday soon, and the wife will...

Great topic, Ron! Exactly what I'm looking for as I ponder my first pop-up camper. Thanks, Dan

First time poster, who really appreciates all the good pointers found on these forums. I have just recently retired from the Army, and am starting to plan the next phase of my life. Will be basing out of SoCal, but ultimately want to spend at least a year or two camping and surfing somewhere...
