Slick-topping a 4Runner

It's just a pain. a truck bed would be so much easier. A tacoma "would" be awesome. But they don't offer enough back seat legroom. And the build quality doesn't compare to the 4runner.

I also have to load 3 kayaks. My wife and kid are to short to even help. That's why I'm just going to get a small trailer. Now they can load their own.

 

When I was a young man and newly licensed to drive, “slick top” was a derisive term used to describe law enforcement vehicles that didn’t have a light bar on top. It was as if the LEOs were cheating by having vehicles that weren’t easily identifiable with a quick glance in the rear view mirror.

 

I get it, man.
When I sold my Tacoma (not enough room inside), the next thing I had to do was get a trailer.

 

I removed the rails on mine as well. It looks much better, especially if you have a lift and bigger tires.

 

Or, you could always get another wife who’s tall on the side
