*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

Specs????

Talk to me Goose...

 

Has bed, sleeps people


I have more pictures and info in my build thread. I'm pretty excited to get out and use it

 

Hahah

Whatcha wanna know?

 

Brand? Size? Which leads to price, if that's not too much to aks (intended).

 

Brand, is my own. I had it built for myself so I can test it out so I can offer a hardshell tent at an affordable price.

Size is 2 person, Might have a 3 person one made but who knows.

Price, well that's yet to be determined. Lots of factors, Should easily be below 2k I really want 1500 to be my price point but we will see.

Warranty 1yr, I have a plan in place for the initial order so I will have back up tents for those accidentally damaged in transit.

 

Cool, thanks for the info. I'll be watching for updates, good luck!

 

Looky what I found...

How many times can you spot the branding in this pic?

Really liking how the @KB Voodoo rack is working with it!

The folks at Tepui are amazing - can't say enough good things about Shona, Bernard, and the rest of guys who helped out today! Really looking forward to putting this new White Lightning to the test

 

For all of you with RTT, I'm trying to make up my mind as to what I need. I like the extended tents with the apex that surrounds the ladder for entry but they tend to add an addition $500 to the tents price. For those of you with and without it whats your experience? Do you wish you got the model with it? or do you have it and don't really care for it? Just trying to get some feedback before making my purchase. Any info is appreciated

If you plan to use the annex often I'd say it's worth it to get the extended version. Annex is a pain otherwise.

 

My style of camping is usually a new spot every night, would you say you find yourself not setting up your annex if thats the case?

 

Absofrickinglutely. They're a bit of a pain to take on/off. I only take it when i'm with my wife and kid. The floor gets dirty fast.

 

Mine doesn't have the vestibule...one night in a decent rain made me wish I had it.

 

You'll probably hate it then, it's a pain to set up. It's nice to have because it adds so much to the tent but if your usually running around and camping at a new spot every night then it isn't worth it.

Now if you just went out for a weekend with the family and staying at a place to camp for most of the day then it would be nice to have.

Until your trying to get everything taken off while it's wet or even raining. It was one of the reasons why I bought the tepui ruggedized autana, i really wanted that annex but proved to be more trouble then it's worth most of the time

 

What up... except no high clearance

 

that looks like a Pelfrey standard with swingout.. I had that for a few months
