    What is the weight capacity of the honeycomb roof panel without crossbars? Looks like an ideal platform to stand on and survey the views from. Please let us know. Thanks.

  • @rockie307
    @rockie307 10 місяців тому

    Needs windows with screens and headliner to keep condensation down to compete with fiberglass topper. Sleeping in the bed of your truck sucks without these options.

  • @jhbryaniv
    @jhbryaniv Рік тому

    great video - I like the details you go into in this video. Any chance we can get some details on the corners, and how it is water/dust proofed?
    In the other video you stand on the roof, not cross bars I believe, how much can the roof support - not cross bars. also - how high above the roof are the cross bars? ie if I put a rack on the roof will they be in line? I have kayaks (3) and bikes (2) to go on the roof . . .
    Ya'll make a top notch product, and I appreciate the attention to detail your engineers have. :-)

      We use a double bulb seal around the entire perimeter of the truck bed to help seal off the outside world from the inside of our Platform Topper and Camper!

    Would love to see how it holds up against corrosion. Via road salt and Ocean.

    • @GFC
      @GFC  Рік тому +2

      It’s all aluminum. The fasteners are aluminized zinc coated and interior mounting hardware is anodized as well, so galvanic corrosion is considered. Tl;dr it’s gonna hold up.

    How is it sealed against rain, dust, snow?

    • @GFC
      @GFC  Рік тому

      It has a gasket seal around all of the panels along with a mechanical corner on each panel that limits all water, dirt and dust that even gets to the gasket in the first place.

    That's cool and all but when in the fuck are you gonna park a truck on your topper. The fiberglass topper is what really impressed me! Don't get me wrong I'd love to have one of your GFC for my S10 ZR2. But this video wouldn't get me to buy it. Me having enough money would.

    • @GFC

      The price difference (or lackthereof) of the fiberglass topper and the GFC might surprise you.

    @mpowers1776 Рік тому +1

    I have been checking out aluminum vs fiberglass toppers for a while.
    The comparisons and demonstration was good for helping me make a decision.
    After seeing this, I’m more than impressed with the fiberglass topper function and its form is less like a work truck. This more than meets my needs.

    • @GFC
      @GFC  Рік тому +1

      It’s good you know what you need! If you only drive your truck on pavement and want the body lines to match the fiberglass is a good match!

    • @GFC
      @GFC  Рік тому

      Actually both the fiberglass topper and the gfc topper are around 4k. Our camper is 8k and has a built in sleeping area, and is a completely different product.

    considering the centralized load points of the 2 bars on the fiberglass vs the spread of 3 bars on the GFC, the fiberglass surprised me.

    • @GFC
      @GFC  Рік тому

      The fiberglass failed immediately but it was surprising how long it took to collapse.
