I’m wondering what everyone thinks about a truck cap on the TRX. I really like the Smart Cap, because it can be delivered to your door and it seems to be built well. I checked with the manufacturer and they say the one currently offered for the ram 1500 will fit, and that it weighs 240LBS.
I used to own a 2017 Raptor. What a POS. It blew up in Nebraska, and left me and my wife stranded. Ford took two months, but did replace the motor. Anyway, I liked to jump it through corn fields out at my farm. Probably only a couple feet of air at about 80MPH. It was fun, even if the Ford was a POS. I want to do this with the TRX. I’m wondering how the cap will hold up? Anyone ever jump a truck with a cap? My family is getting bigger and I need the cap for gear and dog protection on road trips. My yellow lab makes my ‘19 Longhorn 1500 look like the carpet is made strictly of dog hair.
The other down side is that 240LBS takes up 18% of the 1310LBS Payload. I would never be aggressively driving the truck loaded full of gear, but with all that extra space, I’m sure one could easily max out payload —especially after you through in 4 adults. Anyone think we can throw in an extra 200-300LBS, without notice, in normal driving conditions?
