In this video I talk about my experience with the F-150 platform. Why I chose the VSS. How the components are installed and used. And what my experience with the system has been over the past couple of months.

Additional information from Cascadia 4x4...

- 85 watts of energy on the hood of your 2015+ Ford F-150 from a solar panel that's only 3mm thick, meaning vehicle aerodynamics are not affected and the weight of the system is negligible.

- Durable marine-grade solar panel construction. The panel is made from 8 laminated layers consisting of fiberglass and high tech polymers allowing it to stand up to harsh environmental conditions like rain/snow/ice/mud/rocks/sticks etc. High durability makes this panel perfect for an off-road vehicle.

- Optional Plug-and-play MPPT solar charge controller. This waterproof unit mounts in the engine bay and is highly resistant to heat and vibration. It automatically controls how much electricity reaches the battery and prevents overcharging. The charge controller has been pre-wired with fuses, terminals, and connectors to take out all of the guesswork in setting up the VSS System™.

- The optional but highly recommended custom cut vinyl base sheet protects the underlying vehicle paint from damage.

- Factory-like appearance. The VSS System™ follows the contours and edges of the Tacoma's hood perfectly giving it a seamless and sleek aesthetic.

- We add strips of 3M neoprene foam to the base of each panel. This high density foam acts as a thermal barrier to protect your vehicle's paint from damage and also aid in solar panel cooling.

- Final assembly and quality control is done at our Canadian production facility to ensure that every VSS System™ functions perfectly. At Cascadia 4x4 we stand behind the quality of our products.
