Absolutely! This was one of the inspirations of creating the Basecamp Pad. Long gone are the days of having to replace your tailgate diaper every year due to faded fabrics and velcro that doesn't grip anymore. The Basecamp System is made with durable materials that are tested to withstand extreme heat, cold, and UV exposure, ensuring it performs in all climates. Have more questions? Click me!
We specifically designed the Basecamp pad to work with most tonneau covers and truck shells. Shoot us a message if you have any questions! Have more questions? Click me!
Absolutely! While the Basecamp Pad is specifically designed to secure and protect bikes during transport, its versatility makes it an ideal solution for a wide range of outdoor activities. The durable, weather-resistant padding and reinforced straps provide the perfect setup for securing not just bikes, but also gear like surfboards, kayaks, paddleboards, and even snowboards & skis.
Whether you're heading to the beach, the mountains, or the campsite, the Basecamp Pad offers the flexibility to accommodate all your outdoor adventures, ensuring your gear stays organized and protected no matter the activity. Have more questions? Click me!
Our pad is designed to be, what we call, ThermoForm to whatever surface it is set to and let heated with light tension. This allows our pads to not only accomplish an outstandingly clean and tight fit but the material is meant to live under the sun and allows the fit of the pad to get better with time. Unlike other tailgate pads that after just a few weeks of sun exposure turn into saggy diapers clinging to the tailgate for dear life, our Basecamp Pad 2.0 is designed to create a tight and clean fit that will hold up through the elements and even get better with time.

The People Behind The Pad
Cache started like all the best adventures, out in the wild with a truck, some good company, and nowhere else to be. For two brothers growing up in the Wasatch, the tailgate was more than a place to haul gear; it was the heart of every trip.
Years later, that spirit led to something new: a system that turns your tailgate into a home base. Built for connection, built for the moment, built for the long haul.

Tyler & Dillon launch the Basecamp System and successfully raise 50K to get production running and change the tailgate pad industry.
After selling thousands of tailgate pads, we ran out of product and took feedback from all of our customers to reiterate on our 1.0 system and build something better.
1.0 taught us a lot. The 2.0 hit harder. With stronger materials and more experience, it was the pad that told people we weren’t messing around.
After years of feedback and field testing, the 3.0 was a full-circle moment. Built from scratch with better materials and real security, it reflected how far the product and the community around it had come.
