Howdy Folks,

I've been unable to find information both here and on the web about 4wheeling with a roof top tent. Lots of info on RTT's, build-ups, expedition rigs, but very little that I can find on actually wheeling with the tent on top of the vehicle.

Anyways, I am looking for feedback from those who have wheeled with a RTT on top of their 4runners, specifically a 3rd gen lifted 4runner. How tippy is it with a RTT on top? Has anyone tipped over their lifted 3rd gen because of the RTT? Do you feel the RTT has little affect on the 3rd gen with off camber situations, heavy articulation situations etc.? How heavy is your RTT? etc.

I am considering a Tepui Kekunam which is 130ish pounds vs. a slightly lighter model which is 95ish pounds. If anyone has information on RTT's that are lighter, please provide some links. If you feel that the RTT on top of the 3rd gen. 4runner is no big deal while wheeling, present your argument.

I've already got tons of information on highway driving, fuel mileage, etc. with a RTT. Please stick to providing info specifically on wheeling with a RTT on top.

Thank you, I look forward to your responses.

 

I wheel w my roof top tent frequently.

I have the CVT Mt Rainier, and it weighs 150 lbs. Driving a 4th gen 4runner, I notice a shift in COG, but have never flipped, and I've gotten pretty tilted.
