Congratulations on your new TV. Use it in good health. Any chance the both of you will join us in August again? Would love to renew your acquaintance again. And it would give all of the new attendees a chance to marvel at all that you have accomplished. Safe Travels.

I could tell the difference without canopy and with canopy.
I was just teasing I am not a salesman trying to sell you something. I was watching national news tonight a man and wife ran into the back of a semi truck and got stuck. The truck drove 16 miles not knowing they were being dragged. That it is a much different situation.

Looks good. I agree with that "can't tell it's back there" stuff.. I can tell when I put a couple bikes on top. With a +9000lb towing capacity, I KNOW the pod is back there.

Very nice. I've been recently comparing the Tacoma vs. Colorado. Interesting comparison. I agree the cap makes a big difference. Bet if you put a couple of kayaks or canoes on top you'll notice even more of a difference.

Nice!  Looks like the long wheelbase so 145 inches (3.6 m), 381 hp, 401 torque, awesome for towing!
