    Howdy, I have a RTT I’d like to take off and store for a few months. Before I left Utah, I had a hoist set up in my garage, but now we live on base housing with no garage, so how would one get it off the bed with one person? Thanks in advance!

    Take one person and go to the store and buy beer. Offer a beer to your neighbor so you have two people to remove the tent.

    unconnect it, drive in reverse quickly and test your brakes. I think they sell big rolls of bubble wrap to soften the landing. :jpow:
