Been a while since I posted, lots of planning and research on where I was going to go with this build… decided on Smart Cap and I must say it it’s a nice cap!

I have a EVOa Smartcap (EA 1313-MB) on my 2024 Trailhunter 6' bed. The first cap had some issues and was replaced by RSI and installed yesterday by a local dealer. Overall quality is good and the appearance is quite nice. However, the rear gull wing door has a fairly significant conflict with the tailgate... worse that the first cap. I can manage the closure, but it's an inconvenience. I will wait on any additional assessment until I have the cap for a while.

Very nice Cap I am in the middle of doing my own bit of research and I am leaning toward the EVO Sport because I like the side and rear windows. I like the price of the OVS cap but I don't like the huge gap between the cab of the truck and the cap seems like wasted space and looks really nice on the Smart Cap. I will post when I get one and put it on the Truck.

It's getting there... a couple more pieces and I'll feel pretty good a out getting into the wild. The Smartcap has, so far, been a fairly good platform. There are always challenges in getting different manufacturer's gear to fit well together... this build has been no exception. The cap has not leaked. It has not been rigorously tested across rough terrain with mounted gear.
