Hi all,

I'm probably going to buy a Mitsubishi Triton 2500 Double cab 4WD pickup soon and wondering about which canopy to put on the back and where to get it done in Chiangmai (hence the CM Forum, not the motoring one). Dealer quotes 26,000 baht for the Carryboy S-560N, with sliding windows (good for occasional transport of humans!). Any experience/recommendations?

We paid about 15,000 Baht, at a dealer on the Super-Highway near to Makro, for a 2nd-hand one for a Mitsubishi Grandis, so your quote looks reasonable for a brand-new one.

Yeah, 25-35K is pretty much what they cost.

Question though is: Do you need one?

Carryboys are more expensive than the competition. I have a max-fiber. Cost 21,000, from PPS on Hangdong Rd.

Thanks to everyone who replied. I'll have a look at the max-fiber one too. Can't remember which brand I got on the last pickup I bought in CM, 20 years ago! Think it was from a small shop near the Arcade Bus Station on the Superhaighway.
