Our Story
It all began back in 2015, after the purchase of the first truck. A 2014 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport. The lust for adventure began shortly after. The truck under went some modifications, to make it even more capable of reaching those beautiful back country camping locations! Notably, it was the inspiration that came from 14,000 kilometers away! The Australians have been exploring their country by truck for many years, and thus we wanted to do the same.
Fast forward to 2017, with the addition of the newer platform, a 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road. After learning what does, and does not work, different modifications were made. This time, utilizing the trucks potential to its fullest! Again, through inspiration from Australia, it was time to really set this truck up properly. So the search began…
That search being, a flat deck or tray system that would compliment and provide greater utilization of the midsize platform. There were a few options out there, but they all derived from outside of North America.
Where we are today
This is where Summit Expedition Trucks Ltd. began. Provide the same quality and performance from these systems, with the advantages of being designed and manufactured, right here in North America! We take the guess work out of many elements. We incorporate some of the best features on the market, into one stylish unit. Seeing the growing popularity in mid size trucks, and the tasks they are given, we designed our products to both compliment the look and function!
We don’t just focus on any single market. Our platforms are designed with multiple tasks and industries in mind. Our decks utilize an extruded floor, which will stay straight and true for the life of the vehicle. Whether you’re an avid adventurer, home builder, landscaper, contractor or in the oilfield and mining industry. Our products are designed to handle the abuse in any of these industries and the harsh climates that can come with them! Using aluminum, we can ensure a rigid and light weight design; not taking away from a vehicles payload. No need to worry about rust either.
Our products are designed to suit a wide range of North American platforms. From Toyota Tacoma’s, to RAM 3500 series trucks. We take the headaches out of installation, electrical, and lead times. We currently offer build to suit options, with a high level of quality control, and end user friendliness. We designed our systems to meet all DOT requirements; including lighting and reflectors.
The flat pack design allows for reasonable shipping costs, and at home installation. Our lightweight construction makes it easy, with the help of a friend, to install this at home. The most you’ll require are some basic hand tools, and thorough instructions are included!
