That's interesting. Just keep a little of that playdough type stuff in your glove box, and whenever you go thru a carwash, just take a few second beforehand to do your little trick. And then remove and put back in the glove box after. Easy enough.

When will you be coming out with replacement locks? The current ones get water in them, freeze and will not open. If it is truly an 'overland' cap, why can the locks not be opened from the inside?
@smartcap_official Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your feedback and question. We don't have an exact date for the release of our new locks/latches, as it is dependent on the opening of our new manufacturing facility in Ft. Worth. We hope to be able to release that information very soon. You may want to sign up for our email list - The Tribe (www.na.rsismartcap.com/join-the-tribe), as any new product release or update information will go out to that list first. Thanks again, and keep an eye out for that info.

Do you make the smart cap in a lighter color and roof insulation? I live in Southern AZ, I'm worried that when the temps get above 100 that the inside the black cap would be extremely hot. Thanks Jeff

I live in S Texas and had the same concern. I transport dogs often and it's just too hot in the summer to feel comfortable. I used Lizard Skin on the inside and it works great. Dropped the temp inside by about 20 degrees. I also put in some foam paneling in the roof. It took some work but its very well insulated now.

@smartcap_official3 жыл бұрын
We wish we could provide caps for all trucks. The problem however is that SmartCaps are application specific. We design each one to fit the truck model it is going on. In the past year, our team has designed, manufactured, and delivered over 120 different product for the North American market. I would encourage you to join our email list as that is the first place we provide product availability information.

This trick doesn't work. Did it exactly as described and still got about a quart of water inside. For almost $4k, you'd think basic waterproofing would be standard and not need modification to make it do what it's supposed to do.

They cost too much. Fiberglass bed caps cost too much to begin with, and only end up sitting in peoples back yards. Come in and sell your product at the same price as fiberglass ones because they’re overpriced anyway. Then I’ll buy one
@smartcap_official3 жыл бұрын
While I appreciate your comment and concerns over cap pricing, we simply cant build these fast enough for the demand. Why are so many people purchasing SmartCaps? Well, if you look feature for feature and compare SmartCap to Fiberglass, you will see that we are appropriately priced and offer good value for what you get. The rugged design and plug-and-play components let you build your truck bed exactly how you want it. Also, the SmartCap holds its shape and is very easy to install and remove (takes about 15 minutes) so putting it on and taking it off when you need to is a snap.
@Scruffers20112 жыл бұрын
They’re costly but worth it. I wouldn’t trade my Smartcap in for a fiberglass even if someone paid me. The stainless steel construction, build quality and somewhat tactical aesthetic can’t be beat.
