Man!!!! Just the video I’ve been searching for. THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!!

If your are going moutain biking cant you still leave the car and tent and ride the bikes? LOL..this is just a whiny video 🤣🤣🤣🤣. This guy with the first world probs

But the Yakima is not appealing.

but all this is just "you problem" this has nothing to do with the tent

Wish one Thule video showed some standard luggage items inside. Would love to know how many carry-on or full sized suitcases fit.

Are any of these dust proof?

Great tips. Thanks 🧐👍🏻

The most surprising thing about this video, is that you think all apartments and malls use parking garages rather than parking lots. I guess you have only ever lived in very densely populated areas? I grew up in a suburb of NYC, and have lived in the Boston area suburbs for almost 50 years. Except in the city proper, most of the apartments and malls I've frequented, had parking lots with clearance the height of electrical wires on telephone poles. Admittedly, work and play both took me into the city proper, where parking garages without infinite clearance, are a thing.

Super insightful for a newbie cargo person 🙏🙏

Trade that FJ in for a truck and put it over the bed. It'd solve a lot of your issues. I have a cheap tp style hot tent from Amazon to use to mark my site. Truck bed = massive storage.

Where is the video for the hood method?

Boo Hoo this young generation all ways find something to cry about. I for one would not pay for this, so what is it, advice not to buy, or you just want someone shoulder to cry on. Get a life.

Can you hear yourself? My dog can't climb a ladder, my car is too tall, 4 minutes is too long... 😂😂

Thule is much easier and quicker to mount. Also Thule are premium boxes and look way better.

Exactly! All of these reason are why I got rid of my RTT. It's just me, so I changed the inside around and now I sleep in the vehicle.

This affirms my decision to get a simple pop up.

Hi what’s the weight limit of your roof racks?

This might seem obvious to roof top tent campers but do you leave the ladder in place while sleepiing? If not, where do you put the ladder?

Geez, hard work is... HARD!

Ridiculous

Scarier animals in Australia? Well, we've no Grizzlies or Wolves, but we do have Kangaroos, Koalas and the mysteriously dangerous Drop Bear.

I'm trying to understand a bit more about the mounting systems. Could you please elaborate why do you like the Yakima mounting system vs the Thule mounting system?

Any recommendations for a 2022 Honda crv?

Can the ladder be replaced with a telescoping one? I’m thinking of buying one and replace it with my tent’s sliding ladder!

Some decent points…but not going to lie, you lost me at “it takes forever to set up” and that “forever” is 4 minutes…dude.

$900 for a plastic box is ret*rded lol

What about the TMBK2?

Shouldn’t buy a rooftop tent ? Kinda makes your channel redundant then no? 😂

So all your best roof racks are all the ones sold at REI?

Why is the video so dark? did you colorize it or something...?

Keep it!

Wetting the tent before going camp did not no that

do you also sale RTT?

the grand tour 16 is sleek and thinner then others. looks great

What’s the biggest/most spacious cargo box ?

Telescopic ladder, take a portable tent with you, Kings pop up. I’ve made some big mistakes with the camping gig too.👍

My first roof top tent! Been out three times and I love it. Easy up, easy down. Plenty of room for my wife and I. Next trip,,,,out west to the places I’ve backpacked.

What’s a good pop up tent for my 2017 ford focus se? I’m stressing rn bc there’s a lil spike thing on my car and idk if it’s going to affect it

Ironman 4x4 America swift 1400 pop up tent solves all of these issues

Stupid question perhaps, but why not put the back seat down, throw in a futon mattress (that should even out any lumps) and buy a far cheaper roof trunk if you have to take everything but the kitchen sink out on camping trips? Sleeping in the back, there's no chance to roll over and fall from the top of the car all tangled up in a tent, no having to climb ladders in the middle of the night to use a restroom, no having to say no to camping with big friends and it's is far more secure from animals and most humans. In comparison to a regular tent, this idea is just plain nuts, some whacked out entrepreneur and designer gone wild, supported by even sillier consumers who can't simply camp out in the woods without making a big show and production of the entire ordeal. One can learn to appreciate all nature has to offer as well all the conveniences in regular life by camping, but this idea of camping on a roof is whacked. If you are too scared to sleep out on the ground stay home.

Just a few "plus" points for softshell roof top tents 😊 I'm a 70+ year old solo female traveller, measuring 5ft 4in with a softshell RTT on an FJ Cruiser. It takes me (alone) 4 minutes to have my RTT open and ready to sleep in and +/- 8 minutes to close it up and be ready to set off. I wouldn't swop it for the world - it creates no condensation (a problem with hardshell tents), it's light (45 Kgs), has not significantly changed fuel consumption and is MUCH warmer during winter than a hardshell. To keep my camping spot? Easy - I leave my table, chair and a couple of other bits & pieces.... 😊‼️👍🏻🌺 P.S. Yes, the cover does get a little stiff in colder temperatures - so, solution, I climb up on top of the roof and close the cover from "top down" 😉

trivial complaints. 🤡

I live in one for the last 3 years as travelling. What a load of bullshit pal. Get all inclusive holiday and forget your car.

T u r t l e p h a r o a h ?😂

Thanks for sharing your experience with these tents, a very helpful video for anyone looking into camping options.

Top Heavy Tents were designed in South Africa to keep campers out of reach of Lions and Hyanas, not needed in North America, get a Gazzell ground tent, sets up in 90 seconds

Surprised iKamper didn’t make the list

This video is extremely dark bro. Up the brightness. Max bright on my phone hardly makes it to a normal brightness

Which one fits my jeep.patiot
