    Hey everyone,

    I have a cab height bed rack but would love to have a wedge style RTT. The problem is that most wedge tents are pretty long and would overhang if I put them on the bed rack. The bed rack isn’t tall enough that I could have the RTT overhanging the cab.

    I have a 2019 DCSB. Does anyone know of a shorter wedge style RTT that would fit on the bed rack with little to no overhang? I know it may be a little more uncomfortable for sleeping but I’m on the shorter side and have slept in the bed fine before so it shouldn’t be a problem.

    RTT companies try to make their tents large enough to fit a wide variety of buyers. Short tents would only sell to short people, and that's kind of like shooting yourself in the foot as a business. If you want a shorter tent you'll have to get something that folds out to the side.

    Why do you want a wedge vs other hardshell ones?

    Mainly I like the style, how low profile they are, most being less than 100lbs, and the super easy setup.

    depending on your rack height, tent risers are available https://www.victory4x4.com/product/VBR-2RTT.html
    most tents do not come in under 100#
    more like 200#

    You might need a slightly taller rack.......or tent risers.

    That’s like the exact same height as my bed rack from All-Pro. Perfect solution and looks good too, thank you!
