What's it like driving your 80's with those large (heavy) tents like the 2200 up there?
I'm in serious limbo trying to decide what I want for my 80 with the wife and 2 kids (4 and 7 currently).

It did not affect it nearly as much as one would think. I did put the roll/sway bars back on the axles, but I drove about 40k miles with the 2200 on the roof and did not have a concern. MPGs dropped about 1mpg for highway travel.

Hannibal 2.0m Family Tent
78.7" x 94.5" (sleeps 2 adults and 2-3 children)
The concept of roof tents was pioneered in South Africa and the country has long been the market leader in design and production of tough, quality roof tents. The ability to test the Hannibal roof tent in the field, over rough terrain and in all-weather African conditions, has enabled Hannibal to produce a roof tent of superior strength and reliability.

The Hannibal 2.0m Family Tent is a great sleeping arrangement for the family that likes to adventure together.
