    Alu-Cab Has Landed In The USA!

    I figured lack of legs might be an issue it’s one of the reasons I thought a lighter material might work. Thanks for the feedback

    Alu-Cab Has Landed In The USA!

    there was some talk earlier in this thread about some diy room enclosures/wind breaks on the shadow awn I’m interested in hearing about anyone’s successes/failures. I would love to see some type of wind break panel options I have no interest in the full blown enclosure. Rin, has Jeremy ever...

    Clamshell RTT: Window awning/rainfly (Roofnest, ikamper) vs no awning (Autohome, Baroud)

    I had the alu cab gen 3 and Loved the awning/rain fly on the back window. It’s one of those things I didn’t think about when purchasing but was an absolute game changer. I think even some of the other aluminum rtts and maybe even alu cab have side coverage now too. if I was in the market for one...

    Thoughts on a hitch-mounted "roof tent" rack?

    Height would be an issue with a hard shell

    Thoughts on a hitch-mounted "roof tent" rack?

    Before you had that thing dropped and had the cover off I could have my 27lb standing height tent set up exactly where I wanted it and be halfway through my first beer.

    Thoughts on a hitch-mounted "roof tent" rack?

    This is one of those head scratching products to me really seems like the sort of worst of all worlds. Weight penalty, departure angle, tent placement, set up time, cost, standing height and the biggest is intrusion on our main working space the tailgate area. Honestly the only pro I can...

    Recommendations for a family ground tent.

    Love my gazelle but it’s the T3 not sure I’d want to haul around the T4 plus but I haven’t spent any time in one either. If we camp with 4 I take 2 T3’s. Construction is great and it’s been better in rain than I thought it’d be. Honestly the more time I spend in this tent the more I like it...

    Possible to have a rtt sit flush with the roof (Tacoma) as well as a 270 degree awning mounted higher?

    Probably depends on your height but having it a little lower shouldn’t be a deal breaker. If you go with alu cab 270 I would talk to rin at ok4wd about mounting to a rack like in the above picture. I’ll m pretty sure having a mounting point close to where the awning hinges from side to back is...

    Possible to have a rtt sit flush with the roof (Tacoma) as well as a 270 degree awning mounted higher?

    Drew I’m not sure the alu cab 270 will mount to that rack just something to think about before you purchase. Also height of the awning might be a little iffy mounted low enough to fit in a garage. My alu cab is mounted on load bars on top of my canopy any lower I wouldn’t like and I can’t get in...

    Camp Cots / Pads / Mattresses

    Also on cots I have a love/hate while they are comfortable and add good underneath storage especially in a standing height tent I just can’t find one I really like. They’re either to heavy/bulky or too much of a pain to set up. I love my helinox cot but again it’s a pain to set up and really low...

    Camp Cots / Pads / Mattresses

    I’m with woody. Exped megamat and ditched the cots completely. If I’m camping in extremely hot temperatures I’ll bust out the helinox cot for airflow no pad. If you do go cot plus pad the exped is prolly overkill you just need to make sure you have the correct R value pad to keep you warm they...

    Eezi Awn Cube

    I have the alu cab version I like the bigger size of the eezie awn. I’m undecided if this is a useful item or not. I mainly bought it for the female members of the family even though they rarely venture out with me and for use in public campgrounds. They work as advertised very simple to set up...

    Shower Thoughts.............?

    Yeah zodi is well made no issues when I had it. The case was garbage. A couple other things I forgot waterport has better pressure but the zodi is acceptable and no pumping mid shower with the waterport. Another big plus for the waterport is the adjustable settings on the head similar to a...

    Shower Thoughts.............?

    Same guy just an fyi the zodi extreme is quite a bit larger than the waterport and tougher to secure because of shape it’s one of the main reasons I switched. The waterport comes with 3 mounting options but mine just sits on top of my drawers and is ratcheted down next to how many water bricks...

    Shower Thoughts.............?

    I keep it simple used a zodi extreme with the manual pump for years. Fill it, throw it on the stove to heat, pump it up and shower. I’m using a waterport now mainly because I use it for everything else and normally my showers are of the cold variety. Not sure how much hot water could be added...

    WTB RTT - Texas/NM - CLOSED!

    Woodardd I pm’ed on this original thread with the baroud horizon vision it’s probably not what you are looking for, it does not have an annex or an option for one but it’s still sitting in my garage not being used. I’d let it go for $700 and meet halfway I’m in OKC.

    Gazelle Tent or Kodiak Canvas?

    I have both and love both. You can’t go wrong either way. I love my T3 but I mainly use it as a solo might be too cramped with kids and dogs. I think size wise you will want the T4 or at least the kodiak 10x10. The gazelle is free standing and will set up quicker. Kodiak has better doors will...
