    So their site says it will priced around the same cost of an RTT itself. Is this will be $1000 then its just a pipe dream.

    I thought it was a cool option but for the price I would probably rather have a mounted version for cheaper.

    If 5-10 mins is too much to pack up a roof top tent.

    Get yourself a double Tent Cot and a foam pad from Kamp rite

    Save about $1000 and ton of weight, departure angle, some one stealing your RTT, etc?

    Technically it would be about hitch height off the ground :rofl:

    in this case the entire car is a "wind sheild" i have a RTT and i can say it suck the MPG down as its a huge brick on top of your truck. even putting a wind faring in front, it still hurts it.

    If you don't understand the differences in placement, I cannot help you.

    What about putting this in the bed of your truck somehow instead of the hitch and still be able to leave your rtt at camp, or better yet open it out of your bed when possible and then take it out fully when needed. could put it on some type of slide.
