Roof top tents
I like the crankup roof top tent Wayne has on his FJ Cruiser, and here is one I saw in an ad yesternight in the summer issue of Overland Journal.
I had to PM Chris to get the name of the company, as I do not have my magazine here at work. What intrigued me was the roof top tent was on an FJ Cruiser with the stock rack. Here is the company http://www.racktents.com Here is a page of tents http://www.racktents.com/Tents.html http://www.racktents.com/sitebuilder...ed-399x380.jpg |
At that price I will be doing it the old way for quite some time.

That is still way less than the one Wayne has, his goes for $2.2K.
I would have trouble at my old age (dang, I am getting old) hefting his type on/off the rack, plus you have to get Yakima crossbars for his type. http://photos-384.ak.facebook.com/ph...27384_9476.jpg I have several tents now ranging from a one/two person backpacking tent, to a huge hotel type that can sleep 10. I hate setting up tents though, one reason I like the rooftop ones they are easy to setup. Also have thought about this unit. https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f153...nt-cot-122556/ Not much room in it though. |
thats not bad, i want one for my trailer

It is similar to the one that Strap22 and trdparts4u have.
Phil, I miss your old rig. http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/441...0072120ni1.jpg Jacque's setup. http://img32.picoodle.com/img/img32/...9m_db1a245.jpg I would not mind doing a trailer setup like you are building, but it would get vandalized where I am currently at. |

There are a few other people on here that have one. I think xcmountain80 has one. I wouldn't mind it, if it wasn't so expensive.

I will contact the company and find out what all is involved in setting it up on the stock roof rack. |

Very nice.
After I move I will more than likely get one one of those. I was not a fan of the roof top tents at first, but I think they would be great for a spur of the moment trip to camp out in the mountains. If I get one later, I may even go up for a night in the winter up where I go wheeling. |

Hijack: Where can I buy one of those? |
i found mine on craigslist, $500 and was in great shape
|
Seems like a lot of weight way above the COG ... Would be nice to sleep on a nice flat floor, not the rocky ground though ...
|
I would not have mine on the roof when wheeling, it would only be up there for a camping trip where I am going to stay parked for the day(s) next to a nice cold creek.

These RTT from Turkey. They are good materials for holiday.What think about it ?

This Car Top Tent perfect for winter camping and high places. İt has central heating system under mattress. I was sleep in comfortably and warmly. No risk about carbon monocside, because heater work outside the tent.
