*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

My dog is only like 30 pounds so its easy to put him in and take him out of the rtt. he has like no fur either so he gets cold and needs to sleep with us when we camp most of the time anyway

 

Does anyone have the Aspen light or the Intrepid Geo 2.5 in Washington?

 

What is the general accepted overhang for soft-shell tent? Looking at a 23Zero Walkabout in the 72". I'm in the process or rebuilding the rack on my trailer, and I am going to have the farthest apart bars 54" apart, with two more in-between. Would give me 9" of overhang on each side. I called 23Zero who said they don't recommend more than a total of 12" of overhang combined, so 6" on each side. But then when I talked some more they also said my plan seemed fine. I don't think 9" on each side would be too much but wondering people's thoughts.

 

I don't think you would have any issues whatsoever.

 

Went to Bend OR to pick up a Mt St Helens. Mounted on Relentless bed bars.

1st night, Skull Hollow campground.

While in the area, hit up Smith Rock, then onto Painted Hills

 

I’m about to purchase the freespirit aspen lite, had a CVT mt. Rainier for 4 years and loved it. Sold it, Now looking for something lighter.. if anyone has the aspen lite and can give some feedback that would be awesome

 

It's pretty nice

You should see it at San G

 

Darnnn you're looking glamporous
I gotta take notes at San G

 

Nick! Didn’t want to keep bothering you with questions so figured I would try someone else. Lol. I think I’m going to take your word for it. There’s a sale and you can also use a code to get $450 off right now. So might just do it.

 

When they first sold them they had the $300 discount and another $350 for military

 

Waited 6 weeks and shit didn’t come. They canceled it.

Need another tent and leaning towards an OVS nomadic 3.

 

I bought my first smittybilt on a big sale like that and had the same exact issue. I think mine was listed for 800 or 900 so I jumped on it. waited for shipping for a couple months, contacted Amazon a couple times. After the 3rd time they contacted the seller and found out the seller only had 2 in stock when they dropped the price and over sold their quantity and had no plans to restock but was completely fine sitting on the payments people had made. Amazon refunded my money and said "good luck". Ordered from 4wp and got free freight since there is a 4wp 20 min from my house.

If you are looking for a comparable option I know Tuff Stuff is supposedly made in the same factory as Smittybilt and pressed with a different logo on the skin of the tent. I looked into the OVS ones they look pretty comparable with a better latter option than smitty and tuff stuff. Looks like the OVS nomadic3 is 450 off right now as well making it priced pretty well for the size.

 

that’s a bummer!

iv had 2 nights and a beach day trip in my Ikamper x cover mini so far and it’s awesome! For $2200 definitely worth it.

 

Had a CVT and currently a Smittybilt gen 2… It’s all made in China junk. Have also had a GFC superlite but didn’t like setting it up (needs gas struts).. Leaning towards the OVS 3 bc it’s a little wider sleeping footprint.

Ikampers are good quality stuff, made in Korea… But I ain’t spending $2K.. Trying to keep it under $1200 shipped.. Might have to wait until Black Friday

 

Currently trying to get rid of my RTT setup if anyone here might be interested.

Taxa wolly bears are super nice and local but damn I ain’t paying $15k

 

Made the move this summer. Found a used AT Overland Horizon trailer. So far very happy with it and think it's going to solve a lot of my problems.
