*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

what is the issue with the awning poles

 

They push the walls in. Taking away head and legroom

 

That is a odd design. on my tuffstuff alpha II they connect to the deck frame.

 

Yeah I was thinking to attach a bungee cord to them and pulling them outward and down toward the deck. Tuffstuff was one if the brands I was looking at.

 

I just installed an OVS TMBK tent. Do yall have any suggestions for a mattress topper? The installed mattress isn't bad but I would like to add a little more cushion.

 

check out the Exped MegaMat Duo. I started with a memory foam topper from the big A. While it was an improvement, that plus leaving the bedding and pillows in there was starting to get a little thick to close easily, and get the cover on. Bought the exped and took both the others out. It’s seriously that comfortable. Plus I have no scientific evidence just anecdotal, BUT, I think the R value of the exped has noticeably cut the condensation under the mattress in cooler weather.

 

Made this for the dogs. So much better then lifting them up and down the ladder.

 

How do you convince them to walk up it?

 

The wife was at the top and we walked them up and down a couple times on their leashes with some treats. Now they just go up and down without hesitation. Our one dog had no problem at all as he would already just climb the ladder behind us. Getting him down was another thing.
