Smittybilt Overlander Hard Shell RTT

Just saw this pop up in my email. Not sure why the link i'm trying to paste isn't popping up correctly so I just snapped a screen shot below.

I did a search and didn't find a discussion/thread on it but it looks like a pretty good option for the budget conscience; priced at $2,199.99.
I just bought a Gazelle T4 but this looks intriguing.

Fab Four was rocking this on their gladiator for some time. Wouldn't tell anyone what it was, I guessed it was a smittybuilt model as their Tacoma was running a soft shell. Price seems good, on par with all the chinese importers anyways with more warranty support.

Looks to be lightweight but the amount of fabric on each awning is pretty nuts. I'll be keeping my eyes out for any sales next year if I'm looking to try something new out. I like the latches, they are strong and easy to use. The awning support poles go into plates which are riveted on, so I can see that failing but easily fixed if outta warranty. Mattress is typical smittybuilt and probably could use some memory foam on top. Seems to be a decent offering overall.

Wonder what the big grooves on the top are for?
