*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

Thanks. I'm at 6'6"

Damn you have a cool life

In the process of. I know he's super busy lately. Their summit series came in a late shipment and there was some dock strike or something.

Thats what I wanted to hear. Thanks.

 

just FYI I got the telescoping ladder from tepui for my cvt tent cause I didn't want the sliding ladder. I also kept browsing for the ladder from cvt to upgrade but always out of stock so I just thought tepui would work. nope the tepui ladder is wider where the bolts meet the bracket so I had to add all the washer that tepui had and the cvt and barely get it tightened up so yeah if you do get a tepui ladder for a cvt get a longer plastic washer and somewhat longer bolt to get it to fit I just ended up taking mine off and putting the stock ladder back on and keep the tepui ladder as a backup

 

what if we have a cvt...?

 

that's the thing I do have a cvt tent and thought I could retrofit that ladder and it works I got on it and climbed in and all but again need longer plastic washer and little longer bolt and drill another hole for the bracket to somewhat match or get closed to on each side

 

glad I kept those black plastic caps to cover the existing holes

 

The ladder brackets can be moved if needed to fit a wider ladder, you just need to redrill new holes for the brackets. I've done a few myself for people. NBD.

 

I paid 150 for mines with shipping from tepui

 

what he said

 

As soon as we've got them back in stock in May, my cost is $113 + shipping. Typically $15-30 to ship depending on where you're located.

 

If @inv3ctiv3 and I buy ours together can we split shipping?

 

Loaded down for a weekend in TN.


Cape San Blas, Fl for a week

 

Are they going to the same place?

 

We live right near each other. Sorry forgot to clarify. You could just ship both to him.

 

Then yes. Shipping cost would go up just a bit because of the extra weight but not much and it would be pretty cheap anyway with you guys in SOCAL.

 

Brilliant!

 

I hope to make Tepui Fest this year. I missed last year

 

Any body have issues running RTTs on Leer campers? Just scored one on craigs and threw up a Thule rack system. Plan on running my Ayer up there. Haven't heard of issues but curious what you guys think

 

Looking for some input.

CVT Mt Shasta in the new Summit line with stargazer, Tepui Autana Rugged, or Ez Awn 1600 T Top?

My requirements:
2+ up top
Lower annex room
Overhang so ladder is internal.
Extreme cold and hot environments.

Price
CVT $2195
Tepui $2125
EzAwn $3600

Size Closed
CVT 56" × 48" × 15"
Tepui 56" x 48" x 12"
EzAwn 63" x 48" x 11"

Size Open
CVT 56" × 96" x 49"
Tepui 56" x 122" x 52"
EzAwn 63" x 96" x 51"

Sleeping Size
CVT 56" x 96"
Tepui 56" x 96"
EzAwn 63" x 78"

Weight
CVT 125 lbs + whatever Summit Series adds
Tepui 195 lbs
EzAwn 172 lbs, 205lbs with annex


Not looking at the price I like the EzAwn size and weight over the others. Sleeping size and closed height I really like.

CVT is the only one with a "sky view" that can be added. Tepui doesn't haven't it on the rugged to my knowledge. EzAwn doesn't have it all.

Looking for some good input as to what you all would recommend.

 

I have my Shasta on a leer with Thule bars. Haven't had any issues. You'll be fine. Just have to remember static weight is a lot different than dynamic weight.

 

I sent Adam @Box Rocket a PM yesterday asking him nearly the exact thing. Which Tepui tent compares best to the Mt Shasta Summit Series. I'll forward his response to you.
