Made from lightweight yet ultra-durable aluminum, these products are designed to excel in all seasons—from the heat of summer to the depths of winter.

So, where do you want to start your adventure?

Option 1: The Foundation – Alu-Cab Canopies

If you're looking to upgrade your pickup truck for outdoor adventures, the Alu-Cab Explorer or Contour Canopy is the ideal starting point. These canopies are more than just a cover—they’re the backbone of your overland rig.

  • Strength You Can Rely On: Aluminum construction provides unbeatable durability without adding unnecessary weight.
  • Unmatched Roof Capacity: Built for heavy-duty use, the strongest roof on the market lets you securely carry rooftop tents, gear, or load bars.
  • Maximum Storage: Ingenious design delivers the most internal space for gear and accessories.

A canopy is the perfect starting point to gear up for any adventure, whether you’re hauling bikes, kayaks, or other outdoor essentials

Option 2: Add Camping to the Mix – Rooftop Tent Ready

Already have a canopy? Elevate your adventure with an Alu-Cab LT-50 or GEN-3R Roof Top Tent.

  • Fast, Convenient Setup: Add load bars and your tent is ready to go in minutes.
  • Four-Season Comfort: Sleep comfortably no matter the weather—sun, rain, or snow.
  • Compact Yet Spacious: Efficient design makes every inch of space count, ensuring restful nights in the great outdoors.

This package turns your truck into a mobile basecamp—ideal for weekend getaways or extended road trips.

Option 3: Integrated Living – Canopy Camper or ModCAP Camper

Looking for a more versatile and integrated overland solution? The Canopy Camper and ModCAP Camper combine a canopy with a rooftop tent for seamless functionality.

  • Walk-In Convenience: A built-in walk-in rear door eliminates the hassle of climbing over your tailgate and ducking under your canopy—simply walk into your setup.
  • Comfortable Shelter: Sleep inside your truck bed without stepping outside—a lifesaver in unpredictable weather.
  • Adaptable Interior: Customize the interior for cooking, gear storage, or relaxing out of the elements.
  • Full Standing Height: When the bed is lifted, you’ll have ample standing space in the truck’s interior.

New for 2025: The ModCAP Family Camper expands on this innovation, now featuring a rooftop tent that comfortably sleeps up to four people, making it the perfect solution for families or groups.

Option 4: Removable & Modular – The Khaya Camper

If you prefer a solution that can be removed when not in use, the Khaya Camper is the way to go. Built for select vehicles, this lightweight camper is rugged enough to handle the most remote locations.

  • Open Interior Design: Outfit the camper to your exact needs and preferences, whether for weekend trips or extended expeditions.
  • Durable & Agile: Lightweight aluminum construction ensures easy handling without sacrificing strength.

Option 5: Fully Equipped & Ready – The Khaya Camper Deluxe

For those who want the ultimate in overland convenience, the Khaya Camper Deluxe comes fully loaded and ready to roll. Available in 2-sleeper or 4-sleeper configurations, it’s your home away from home.

  • All the Essentials: Includes sink, shower, internal heat, and solar-ready capabilities—everything you need for off-grid comfort.
  • Adventure-Ready: Fully equipped to tackle any weather and any trail, from rugged backcountry roads to established campgrounds.
