Inflatable topper?

Has anybody seen this? I stumbled across it.

Unless I missed it, it doesn’t mention how fast you can drive with it installed. I sent a message and asked. See if I get a reply.

NOT AT THAT PRICE !  i bought my topper for about 275 before my oldest was born. she is 26 now. never was concerned about how fast or whether it would fade. chip. deflate etc.

Yup, spendy, but would be good for me. They replied tonight, figured it would be in the morning.

They said they drive 90 all the time.

No, I haven't seen one of those.  But they are interesting.  Would sure be handy - if I didn't have a cover.

Please let us know if you get it and what you think.

I doubt I would get one as I like having the bed open and I’m pretty sure my days of sleeping in a truck are over. Also I like my saddle box and it can be a pain to take on and off without help.

But, if I had the need it would be great because I think it could be handled pretty easily.

I like their cots or decks I think they call them. Buy yeah, spendy.

That might be a ridiculous price by 30 year old standards, but it's really not that out of line.  I bought my last topper in 2013, and I think I paid about $1300 for it.  It's fiberglass, with a headliner and glass windows that open both as a door and as a sliding window.

An aluminum topper with no options would be cheaper of course, so it depends on what you are looking for.

It seems to me that an inflatable topper will be pretty nichey and low volume, which would push the costs up.  So ~$2000 now doesn't seem ridiculous for what it is.

That said, I don't think I'd want one, especially at that price.  While it would be nice to be able to install and remove it without help, my topper stays on almost all the time, so that's not such a big deal.  And with it on all the time I'd prefer the looks (and likely the durability) of a fiberglass topper.

Still, it's a cool idea!

Good points! I bought an aluminum topper for my 94 F250 about 8 years ago and it was a little over $800.

I priced an A.R.E. MX with the door on the back hatch for that 94 F250 around the same time, and it was around $2300.

That’s what appeals to me, I could handle it and store it easy enough. If I decided to take off the saddle box I would consider this.

I like the Softtoppers too. But they are still on, but fold out of the way.
