Ursa Minor?

[Wraith]

I ordered mine in early November and I SHOULD be getting it early August.
Confirm that they still do painted tops. I didn't look hard, but I remember seeing black textured or white.

I spoke with John and he stated they no longer offer the full body color matching on the lower portion, only the black textured finish. He stated the reason for this is due to difficulty with getting it done with their painting vendor in a timely manner. They do still offer the color match on the roof shell for $1,200. Definitely the option I would go with on the Nacho. Based off the current lead time, if I were to order by the end of next month I would have it in time for my birthday next year. Sounds like a good gift to myself.

I am from around just east of Lancaster, Pa if you want to check mine out in person

Hi Kirk,
Would I be able to take you up on that offer? I’m just east of you in Chester County. I’m seriously considering placing an order for one but would like to see it in person and talk to you about your experience with it. Let me know your thoughts please. Thanks.

Long time owner on my JK and just ordered my second top for the JL. We've camped hundreds of night all around the southwest and Baja, its by far the best mod for a jeep IMHO, the Ursa had 80K miles on top of the jeep and held up great..
I sold the JK as a turn keep rig and the new owner loves it. I can say after years of use it still looked new and so many of those miles were using it off road.

.

I meant to ask, with all those nights spent in it did you ever upgrade the 2" mattress to something thicker? Reason I ask is my wife has a bad back and we were considering doing the 3" mattress they recently announced as part of our build. Did you ever put a condensation mat down, or was it even necessary? Thanks!

I didn't upgrade the foam but am definitely going with the thicker 3" now they are offering it.
We would always put down something over the padding when it wasn't too hot for sleeping. A sheet at a minimum and typically one of those cotton sleeping bag that can zip together so two people can be in it. Maybe the little extra helped but just being out was enough to overcome the slight discomfort of the padding.

Any rough day in the woods is better than a happy day at the office? Or something like that haha. I think I will do the same and spring for the 3" mattress. I need to call them again and talk through the details of all of this. I have my build sorted out I just need to ask on the mattress as I wouldn't have the need for the 2" at that point. Not sure I can swap them and pay the upcharge. I will report back on that.

Sorry about that, I wasn't clear. I meant as in the lead time and how long its been taking.
