every time i see @riz_atx 's GFC and now his it does it to me lol

 

His was the first I'd seen in person 2 months ago at the birthday bash at HF's. He didnt even set it up but loved its usefulness just as a cap. I've really enjoyed my RTT but have found my self wanting something different.

 

Same. I love my RTT, but the GFC is #goals for when I get a different DD

 

I'm dying for an Rtt someday!! I'll take it!
Hahaha...

Hi everyone, hope you're all having a good night!

 

Hey Jenn
We partying tonight. Got to get my big ass in the kitchen and prep a bunch of BBQ for the pit

 

Craigslist is your friend. Got mine for $450, used.

 

Awesome deal! Still very jealous!!

 

Yeah, maybe someday. I'd have to get the rack to mount it on too so it's overwhelming to me cause I dunno crap about any of it and I don't have the funds anyway! So its a future someday project like everything else! I think I need to research the good and bad things to be sure it's for me first.

 

It's pretty easy. If it's not on your truck 24/7 and only for short periods, you might not need bed stiffeners. Otherwise, get bed stiffeners then get your preferred bed bar setup.

Some companies have weight ratings, most don't. Go with a brand that meets your price and quality requirements then shop for a tent.

There's 2-man, 3-man and I think 4-man RTTs, so pick the size you need and figure out a budget range for that. Look at used and sales and bam!

#EAF #Overland all day, err-day.

My setup was about $1100 in total, including spray paint for my bed bars, additional washers and nuts, new production bed bars, used tent and new production bed stiffeners.

 

Wow! Thanks for the info!
Well I'm sure I'd want the biggest I could get unless it's too heavy or something makes it more complicated versus getting a 2 person but having more room is always good. I worry if it's something I can put on by myself, if it's easy to set up and such. I found one on Amazon that was cool looking but didn't have the greatest reviews or no reviews but it's still saved in case I want to consider it again. Seems Tepui or Cvt may be the best way to go but I'm just barely looking at them so I'm still learning... price it's definitely something I have to consider unless the bf gets one for me someday or something but $450 is way better than what I've seen.

 

Mine is a Smittybilt clone with Tepui upgrade parts. I'm very happy with it. The RTT owners thread is an awesome resource for picking a tent and those guys have been through multiple models and brands.

 

Searching for it now.

 

Found! Now I'm just gonna ache more for one...

 

Lol, took me about 2 years and i couldn't stop myself lol

 

Well, Hopefully I don't have to wait that long but the way things have been going it wouldn't surprise me.

 

I liked to take my time lol

 

I'm impatient as hell but try to wait as long as possible so I don't regret stuff or grow out of stuff...

 

Use mattcowsmasher lol

 

We drinking beer and rubbing our meat for tomorrow.
Pork belly bites and ribs rubbed tonight.
Butts already rubbed and wrapped. Sausage stuffed and ready.

it’s great to be appreciated by good friends.
