    Does anyone have any solutions for an awning when you don't have a roof or bed rack? I am looking for something easier to set up than my 10x10 canopy when I am on the coast fishing, something lighter and quicker to set up and take down.

    I wonder if this would work but instead of strapping to the spare I could leave the windows cracked and run the straps around the door frame. Anyone have any other solutions?

    I have a canopy like that and that works great if I am going to be stationary and have help setting it up, it is a major PIA to do yourself in the sand. I am looking for an option that is a little more mobile since there are days were I will move up or down the coast several times depending on where the fish are biting and I am usually solo.

    Do our Tundras have those square holes on top of the bed rails in the corners like other trucks do? I see square outlines on top of the plastic rail can these be cut out?

    Got it. I was really trying to advertise my Broncos. :D

    Are you looking to just sit under it? You are obviously not trying to cast under it?
    My wife has this sweet dome shaped setup for the beach she uses and you just flip it and it does it’s thing. I’ll get the name for you. Pretty well built to.

    Something that would attach to the bed corner pockets or even create a simple bracket for the track system.

    I wouldn't run it through the windows, then you're stuck not being able to open the doors if you need to get something out of the truck while you're parked.

    I have this, but attach it to my spare in the bed. It came with a couple different harnesses so shouldn't be hard to attach it at other points.
