Two people with two battery powered drivers would probably take about a minute or two for the OP’s style of bed mounted tent. Roof mounted or hard to access nuts would be slower but this style is dead simple to remove.

That’s one way to do it if you have a bunch of money to blow to solve a $10 problem.

I used exhaust clamps and never had any slipping or problems over many miles of rough road and trails.

I really need to get over there. I’ve been looking at truck and motorcycle rentals for a long time trying to decide which way I’d rather spend a couple month short exploring.

I guess it could be a little more hassle with the tent version not the camper version, but still only a minor inconvenience. With mine on my truck I have no problems with removing bedding.

An extra five minutes to stuff your bedding in a stuff suck is a good tradeoff in my opinion. I was able to store bedding and pillows in my old RTT and don’t find myself missing the ability now.

These guys and a lot of buyers have most assuredly been racing down the desert way faster and harder than most people ever will. Good luck keeping up with them with a heavy RTT and hundreds of pounds of other gear up top like you said.

It’s pretty easy to get up there, especially with midsize trucks. My Tacoma has a 1200lb payload. The front bumper/winch used 150lbs, rear bumper with swingout used 40lbs, rock sliders are probably 90lbs, IFS skid is 50lbs, mid skid is probably 25lbs, GFC is about 270lbs. That’s a pretty...

I checked them out. They need to get a handle on their shipping prices, $56 to ship 4lbs of bacon is obscene.

Luckily for them plenty of people are willing to.

It’s not bashing, it’s simple common sense to try to always present your company in a good light. Proper grammar and punctuation go a long way in forming a good impression based on your online presence. I’m still trying to figure out what being a bail enforcement agent has to do with not being...

Go with a low mileage 2015 and you’ll be much happier. Other than the updated tech in the newer models the 2nd gen is a much better truck all around.

I planned on it but the sky is completely clouded over and isn’t forecasted to improve.

Some people have been able to store lightweight down backpacking quilts but that’s about it. GFC has a thinner mattress they’ve been testing or may have already implemented that provides a little more space when closed but apparently doesn’t compromise on comfort.

I haven’t had issues with wind noise, definitely nothing like my previous ARB RTT. The one night it was pretty windy I faced the wedge into the wind and wasn’t bothered at all.

The battery lasts four or five days with sending a few messages daily and tracking points every 30 minutes while moving. I carry a power pack and USB cable to recharge it if needed.

Mine has never had problems down to -30°F.
