Hi all, I was looking for a Wildtopper main thread but didn't come across anything. I just installed my Wiltopper and bed liner with all the hooks and things. Just wanted to share some thoughts real quick. I've been driving tacoma's for years and have tried all the toppers, so wanted to give this load bearing style a shot.
My main take away's are, it's certainly awesome, is it perfect... no.
They have custom made bed rail clamps now, no more drilling holes or bolting in like the 1st run of these.
I would prefer the rear "hatch panel" to be replaceable like a softtopper. Bad design choice, it will certainly haze and crack like they all do.
2nd, it certainly leaks. We had a nice rain storm last night and had a bit of water come in thru the front area, I plan on removing and adding an actually gasket there, they should supply something. Most of the water is coming in under where the main frame makes contact with the bed, nothing thru the canvas.
I'd still buy it all over again honestly. It's a great little topper that is super light, once assembled it can be taken off and on by 1 person in a matter on minutes, so pretty low stakes + I can haul my Loangboard now
One other thing worth noting, the side access is super handy, probably better than going in thru the tailgate location.
