*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

They work, I've never heard of this one before

 

Why does the snow determine weather or not you buy a awning? I camp in the snow a lot and I ordered the awning over the annex.

 

I don't have pillows in mine but I leave two thick sleeping bags an a big blanket in it. Mine zips up easy and the top isn't too tight. I takes time and really tuck the tent back into it nicely. I think I would be able to stuff an annex in it just fine.

 

some RTT action from last week...

Looked like a fun trip bob. I was jelly.

 

it twas

definitely loving the setup...camping hasn't been the same since getting the RTT lol

 

you just gotta make that initial purchase and then you're golden

 

Just do what I did and find a super cheap one. If you get lucky you will also have a moron for a friend friend that some how runs it over .

 

My tent is ALWAYS on my rig, fuck that haha, if i had enough room to store it i'd prob still leave it up lol i like it a lot.

 

Same, only happened while building the new bed rack . That old tent was so light compared to the tepui though. Putting it on and off was simple but I dread the day I have to move this pig by myself.

 

taking mine off to paint my bed rack was sketch as hell.. i pretty much threw it on my back and then just flipped it on its top lol got it off without scratching the truck so it's all good After putting it back on, i aint taking it off haha I'm used to it now.

 

I plan to use this method haha

That basically all I did. I could toss the old one around super easy so after getting it on the tailgate I just slide it on the bead rack. Not sure what to rugged weighs but even with 2 people we could feel the weight. I could get it down and up but not looking forward to it at all.

 

I use the above method to put mine on the rack over the topper and it works pretty well.

 

Hope that doesn't happen to me haha I'm not a very big guy by any means...

 

Meh, if you can clean your body weight you will be fine. Its just awkward to grip is all. This is also assuming you weigh more than 150lbs .

 

Try 120, on a good day haha

 

Damn, then it might be hard . It literally takes 2 seconds so if you do need help just stop some person near by or ask a neighbor. Once it is on the rack you will be able to slide it around until you are happy with the location.
