newbie question: what's a tin top?

the answer is probably the obvious, i.e., a non-pop-up top bay, correct? i keep seeing the term and just want to make sure i'm using it correctly. thanks for the answers in advance.

 

Yes that is what a tin top is, a camper with no elevating roof or canvas sun roof

 

Correct, thanks for asking

 

A tin top is the only top

 

Tintops rock. They are vans that haven't been bastardised by some cack handed muppet with a jigsaw. They are also aerodynamically efficient, and don't wallow around in high winds. They are getting rarer.

Pop tops rock ( in the wind )

 

Tintops are campervans for midgets.
