    There's some BBQ, fishing. There's cats too. Be ready for the cats. Either falling off stuff or hanging in the shower.

    The only reason people buy and use roof top tents is because they suck ass at building tree forts.

    You guessed it. I also don't know if you've noticed, but the home page updates with the latest posts and you don't even have to click on sub forums like 2nd, 3rd, off topic, etc. It's craziness!

    yeah I have idea why people are equating "messy beds" with RTT owners...it's fucking hilarious actually. I tried closing mine with a camping pillow inside of it and it wouldn't close, let alone if I actually left my sleeping bag in there. And that's the other thing, who has a "bed" in their RTT? Myself and most everyone I know uses a sleeping bag in theirs just like you would in any other tent.

    Was that when he crapped himself? Or blew up the nursing home room?

    Either way something in that scene is about to detonate

    I used a tent from around 2004 up until recently. Love that limelite. So simple. Clearly breathes super well . Packs small . I'd get it again in a heart beat

    Haven't had any yet in mine but I guess that's one of the blessings of living in a dry climate.
