WELCOME TO the 2021 MANTIS!
Congratulations on your new Mantis!
We hope you go somewhere we have never been. Then we hope you share it with us and our community.
We hope you stay safe and sane and make the best of every new adventure. These days are strange and hard but the outdoors
always beckons and always refreshes.
The ’21 Mantis has a new modular storage system of spaces and crates that we hope you love. It is designed to keep all the
normal things that everyone stows safe and in their place AND allow you to do the same with the odd or special items you and
only you bring to the great outdoors. It is designed to let you live indoors and out as seamlessly as we can devise to date. We
have a new orange tent that will revive a favorite view of mine – habitats glowing like gentle lanterns in the night – and the orange
also harkens back to Taxa’s original tent color. The same tent has a new front window where both the solid and screen can be
unzipped giving you unfettered access to the front roof portion from the inside of your habitat. I suppose the same goes for
chipmunks and marmots so be aware….
Buying a habitat is different than buying a vehicle – you don’t just hitch up and go – plotting and planning and outfitting and
optimizing is part of the fun. The Mantis is a product of course but it is even more an investment in your lifestyle. Your grow into
it. We have a set of wonderful Habitat Specialists and an even more wonderful community that will help!
The Mantis is for anyone and everyone. We thought mostly of families but I know all sorts of families so I should be a little more
specific!. It can sleep up to four full sized people in its berths – two of those people can share a double bed with the others in
single bunks. Add hammocks and or a rooftop tent and you could theoretically get up to 8 in and on there - kids, grandkids, agile
dogs and ferrets, more friends, a Nubian goat. We at Taxa are agnostic about who and what you camp with. We just love to help
you get there.
An Overland edition Mantis is available too – it sports a 4” lift and a strong Timbren Axle-less suspension that gets you further
down the (dirt) road than any other 19 footer. That lift though does have the effect of making it less and less likely a Overland
Mantis squeezes into your garage. Measure!
Please support our nations’ park systems. It takes work to keep things wild and we are an essential part of that work as users,
as stewards, as advocates. Please take with you only what you need and leave nothing behind!
As ever:
It is important that you thoroughly review this Owner’s Manual
.
Please also consult it anytime you have a question regarding
the safe use, operation and maintenance of your habitat, and its systems and components
. Understanding how they work is an
important part of having a fun, safe travel experience.
We want your first and every adventure to be great. Have a practice session in your driveway. Hitch that habitat up and drive it
around the block. Get comfortable. Ask questions! Get answers to any questions, issues or problems that arise during your
practice. Get answers from the community, from our FAQs and specialists – send us an email . Give us a call or email us at
. Many questions can be answered quickly and easily and save you a lot of hassle.
Best,
Garrett Finney,
TAXA Founder
