Getting my Badlander was the biggest game changer! I've had it for almost a year and can't imagine going back to a RTT, or anything else.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Those campers are awesome tons of room. & Nope can’t go back to a RTT for sure. The truck camper is a complete shelter with the bed platforms slide forward!

[@Lost_And_Found_Overland]

Definitely need one. And after watching this video, I’ll definitely be going with topo toppers.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

That’s rad to hear! 😎

[@christianlucas6553]

I think Topo Topper should give you a new topper every year, for as much cred you guve them! I started watching your channel about a week ago, and you mention Topo in nearly every single video! Come on Topo Topper!!!!

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

The people behind Topo Topper are some great people. Like I said in the video it’s the best deal out there and I have zero complaints about the camper.

[@amandaraeway]

Getting mine next month! Can't wait. Thanks for all the good info!

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Congrats! Which camper are you getting the Mesa or the badlander?

[@amandaraeway]

@@jonnytacooutdoors I was torn but ended up getting the Mesa also! 🙌

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

@@amandaraeway congrats! You’ll love it

[@MrUltralight55]

I ordered the Mesa Topo Topper in February 2024 it was delivered to my front door in April 2024, I live in Maine, It was delivered completely assembled, took about an hour once it was unboxed to securing it to the bed of my 2022 Ram 1500. I am totally satisfied with my topper, I have a number of add ons. It’s definitely an eye catcher when the top is lifted folks wanting to look inside.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Glad to hear you had a great experience.

[@dustyroaddestinations]

Just having something that is quick to go, quick to setup, and quick to tear down is AWESOME. You have a really great build out and I'll definitely have to reconsider how I have my setup, well, set up! Topo Toppers sure are a lot of bang for the buck!

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

You got that right!

[@lenazoni1]

A huge selling point for me is free installation. A lot of the other competitors charge a lot for installation.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Installation fee is pretty crazy unless maybe the company is doing some water sealing. I was also told if you bring your awning they will install that for you.

[@chemtrail_brew_Que]

Would love to see a video on your kitchen build out including the electronics and such.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

I have videos on those

[@KeywordManagement]

Great vid. I've been pricing them out. For my full-size truck a loaded Topo Topper will run about $10,310 which is the best price i've found to date. As of this comment, they've got about a 2 week lead time so I could pick up in middle of November.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

@@KeywordManagement two week lead time that’s insane! 😎 full size does run more money, but still the best price around? I love to hear that. I absolutely love my top topper. I had it almost 2 years now.

[@harrymills2770]

The thing about the Vagabond is that it extends all the way over your double cab, which gives you more room.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

If you can ever get a camper from them! That was my first choice but since they hate a bunch of issues I went with Topo Topper and don’t regret it.

[@RJT11]

Topo is legit! 👏👏👏

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

They are

[@riseuporganic]

Top notch

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Best deal out there!

[@karenbalfanz669]

I like the Badlander for a Chevy Colorado. What about exterior antenna

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

nice camper!

[@caseykongpanickul3426]

Have you had any nights in cold weather? I'm curious how well it insulates from the cold

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

I’m in the Topo Topper now camping in 39 degree weather. It’s 75 inside here with my Vevor diesel heater pumping!

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

I highly recommend a diesel heater in cold weather or else everything freezes. When it melts it will get your sleeping stuff all wet which means you’ll have to pull everything out before that happens. Happy camping!

[@caseykongpanickul3426]

Thanks for the info!

[@Non-Serviam300]

@@jonnytacooutdoors great video! Which Vevor diesel heater? Thanks! Never mind I see the link in the description 🤘

[@2-old-Forthischet]

I have all my recovery gear, shovel and two Rotopax gas cans on my roof rack. I sleep inside of my 4Runner. I have seen bears climb things, even in a city environment.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Sleeping inside has its advantages. Including being free from the wind which is a huge plus. Thanks for watching!

[@2-old-Forthischet]

@@jonnytacooutdoors yes, I've had my share of tent camping in very windy places. One of the last places nearly collapsed my tent at night.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

@@2-old-Forthischet sounds like a terrible time 😎

[@harrymills2770]

Lots of people swear by 4-Runners of all vintages. You can't beat just crawling in the back without having to go outside. Easier to change clothes if the weather's bad, outside, etc. They're a little bit top-heavy, though. I'd probably mount any extra gas cans on the back.

[@mathieuk119]

Have been trying to get in touch with them to see if they can make one for first gen tundras with no luck. Not really sure why they don't. I see tundras out and about all the time. Never seen a 2010 ram 1500 with a topper out on the trail yet they make them for rams. Makes no sense, but i guess ill go down the road to Oru designs. I like the bed lift which is why i really wanted this one, but looks like ill settle for the sliding platforms.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Yeah gotta do whatever works unfortunately. I’ll reach out to them to see if I can find out any other information. 👊🏻😎

[@semperfiever]

Just got that camper im wondering what solar panels did you use?

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Congrats! They are Renogy 100watt panels. You can find them on my website at JonnyTacoOutdoors.com

[@allgonewrong16]

Are these suitable for winter camping?

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Get yourself a diesel heater and you can camp in freezing temps no problem. You will also have no condensation using a diesel heater. Go watch some of my winter camping videos 😎🌮 tell Topo Toppers I sent ya!

[@allgonewrong16]

@@jonnytacooutdoors Thanks!

[@robhall2919]

Can you close the top with hest mattress in place?

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Sure can.😎 with two sleeping bags as well.

[@robhall2919]

Nice! I assume mattress will fold in half when you slide bed platforms back top open up truck bed area.

[@bluedoggum8373]

Looks cool. I just say whatever gear gets people out there more.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Definitely! Thanks for watching 👊🏻

[@vit6x6]

Супер , мне тоже досталась такая палатка , как управлять солнечной панелью не понимаю ?

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

палатка отлично подходит для кемпинга. на KZbin много видеороликов о солнечных панелях, где я и узнал. У меня также есть пара видеороликов о моей солнечной установке.

[@borosable]

Any issues with water leakage?

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

With the camper zero

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Sika flex 221 is great stuff

[@borosable]

right on! thanks man@@jonnytacooutdoors

[@lynnw7155]

I love these, but they don't make one to fit my RAM truck with an 8' bed.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

Man that’s a bummer!

[@harrymills2770]

Seems like the 8' bed would give you more options. Nice to have a long bed, generally speaking. Is it a regular cab?

[@kmaamk1620]

What’s the weight? Alu cab is 125lbs

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

If you’re talking about the alu cab canopy camper those weigh around 500 to 600lbs. The topo topper Mesa is somewhere between 225 & 250lbs. 😎👊🏻

[@Ltaco_vato]

Want one so bad 😭

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

@@jonnytacooutdoors have you noticed a big change in your KZbin views? My channel has been throttled back and I think a lot of creators are seeing this. I think they pushing us to buy their services to get pushed out. Anyway just curious.

[@GoSlowTaco]

Luckily you didn’t go vagabond route. They went under and the owner is MIA with a ton of people money.

[@jonnytacooutdoors]

I just saw a forum message about that yesterday. Definitely makes me happy About my purchase. 😎
