What's a canopy?



Makes sense because as the driver you're on the opposite side than the road system was set up for. Being a passenger in one of those cars is trippy shit.

What's a canopy?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

A quick Google search tells me in Ontario a canopy is referenced as a topper or cap. You guys are adorable.

I misunderstood, I thought you were referring to having a canopy on your car.

topper

?????

Ah my bad. It's a shortbox so having it off can really limit storage.

 

[Splinty]

cap

It's not a hat?


We call all things that cover the bed like that "a camper", even if it's not really a camper in the back.

Personally, I fucking detest caps. I'd sell my truck before putting one on.

It caps the bed, hence a cap.

A camper? The fuck is wrong with you people?

I'm simplifying it a bit. But that is the common parlance. Shortened up of "Camper Shell", which you will find is an appropriate name.

If someone called it a topper it wouldn't surprise me. Canopy? Would take some context clues.

Then again, all your sodas are Coke when you are driving to buy a camper for your truck bed.

Yeah, canopy is out to lunch. I honestly have no idea why anyone would call them anything but a cap.

Here's the thing. Those blind spots are largely imagined, and the amount of pedestrians killed by cars is, well, it's just not that many.

My number one blind spot is between the windshield and my passenger side window. I have an eye muscle disorder and have to be cautious because that’s the side I have issues with.

Looking to buy a new head unit for the Subie, anybody have a recommendation? Needs to be a double din that can support a rearview camera. As of now I'm looking at this one.

7" Mech-Less Receiver with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto | iLX-W650

My last unit had Android auto which was a pretty good feature. Not sure if that's considered the new standard now or not.

Just a heads up. If it doesn’t have a CD player, you’re going to have to digitize all your Barenaked Ladies CDs.

No we don't. We call them canopies

The correct word is canopy.

A camper is a self-driving vehicle used for camping that's smaller than an RV but larger than a trailer (which is towed by a car)

@Leafs Watcher ignore these retards. What you're referring to is indeed called a canopy

True that's also a camper.

But a "truck with a camper(on it)" is a truck with a camper shell. We just don't say shell.

Nice try.

Nice try.

A cap is something worn by baseball players and douchebags. It is also used to describe the lid of a glass or plastic bottle.

Canopy is the word you're looking for.

2 pages and no one has called OP a fag or lesbo for driving a Subaru and calling it a subie. This place is getting soft
