Alright, forget the cap. Is the basement storage still more than the truck bed up to the rails?
When I had a TT I had to use the truck along with a canopy to haul everything. The TT front storage was small. Some brands like Outdoor RV have much larger front storage compartments.
Now with a 5er almost everything goes in the 5ers front storage compartments. I only put a 4' ladder and some firewood in the truck bed. I do sometimes carry 3 7 gal water jugs when dry camping. I have 4' of room from the cab to 5th hitch. Plenty for lots of stuff if needed. My two bikes are on the rear of the 5er.
best thing about the 5er is that ALL of the gear thats in the basements stays in the basements till the next trip. When I had the truck I had to unload all that gear when I returned home.
Not all 5ers have the same storage capacity.
