Exactly...which is why I wouldn’t buy any RTT other than Autohome, Baroud or any of the other smaller manufacturers with actual customer service.

Right, I didn't make any of those assumptions, nor do I own any RTT (I think they're a bit overrated TBH). Please read my post again, and not between the lines cause there's nothing there.
This high-res photo of the Superlite tent grabbed from the GFC website shows what appears to be fabric top...
A tent is a tent is a tent. Or is it? Autohome has been building rooftop tents for 60 years, their tents have been on numerous real expeditions, the design, quality & support of the product is incredible, and the price reflects all of that. If GFC can hit even 50% of all of those attributes for...
I downsized from a 82qt Edgestar to an 18qt Indel B (sold by Truckfridge). The cheap Chinese stuff from Amazon wasn’t worth considering at the price I paid for something made by a company that’s been making 12v fridges since the ‘60s. Around $350ish.
My opinion of this size is that it’s...
For sale in excellent condition:
1) SOLD - ARB Awning 2m (6ft) - No rips, tears or other damage. Was installed on the vehicle only during trips, probably 30-40 days total, so the bag is also in really good shape. Original stakes and guy lines included. Mounts were custom-built for my crossbars...
Nice example of how your kitchen bag can be used, checked it out on the website. Do you have an inventory list of everything that's in this pic? I need a moto specific version of my car kit I posted above. An organized kitchen is important because you use it 3 or more times a day.

Because of this thread revival I'd like to post my latest setup. I've splurged on a Camp Cover bag which serves as both chuck box and utensil roll, all in one organized ultralight (for a car camping) 18lbs kit for 4-6 people, even with mostly stainless contents.
The contents of the bag are...
Good choice if it's vehicle-attached and not unloaded each time you want to use it. I got tired of handling even a 50lb plastic chuck box, so you may want to estimate fully-loaded weight first. Chuck boxes get used 3 or more times a day so usability comes first... IMHO.
If building with...
So nearly 2 years later, Mr. Hitch Hotel above is yet to provide any sort of data he so confidently said he would. I forgot all about it, but today this news article popped up and memories of the napkin math I did one dull day at work came flooding back[emoji16]:

You could do it with a couple of pieces of aluminum flat if you copy my construction method in my first post with that Tortuga slide....no wood or starboard needed. Just lay them flat across the top of the L shaped side pieces, then fasten with U bolts.

J-bolts are what I used but I'd recommend using U bolts if you can. After a while I would notice my fridge start to shift a bit, causing some introspection on what would happen in the case of a crash or rollover (that's one reason I went away from a heavy fridge and slide). U bolts will be more...
Use the third row seat mounts and some hardware store U-bolts. Here's a slide I built, you could probably do the same using an adapter plate.
