    Keep us posted, in my opinion that’s what the forums are for, sharing good companies along with the bad.

    I have a few friends with various roofnests and they all have good things to say about their tents and company. None have the condor that I know of, but take that for what it’s worth.

    D98C9391-3812-4432-B534-AB9718FB12A9.jpg p Spent 15 nights on this Smittybilt (gen 1) Overlander XL RTT, I added a 2” memory foam topper and couldn’t be happier with it.

    Does anybody knows of any low profile rack? I went with bed bars because I didn’t want the tent being over the cab roof line but I’ll be interested in upgrading down the road.

    Caliraised has a low pro rack. The short one is only 7”

    Hey guys, I got a hard shell off a buddy of mine and the replacement latches snapped on the interstate (good times). Can anyone recommend a replacement that’s fairly easy to get and doesn’t require a ton of modification?

    Those look to be the same style latches as a lot of rotomolded coolers. May be able to find an upgraded version of those.

    So I have been using a cheap plastic folding table for a few years now but I want something better. What table do you all use when out camping ?

    I love it! What are you looking to gain with a nicer one?

    Stronger. After years it doesn't like to lock open any more and it hard to get the latch to undo when closing if it actually locks in. Also Its got some burns and other issues. Just wondering if there is an affordable aluminum one that doesn't take up us much room on the roof or bed.

    I’d be curious to know as well for when this eventually dies.

    The ones on there were definitely not up to the job

    We have the smaller version of the same style table. Had it for a few years and it's still going strong, although the finish has worn off on quite a bit of it. Packs up nice and small for a table. About the same size as those standard camping chairs

    I do the same with mine against the wall in the garage. I just used some screw hooks into the studs and a ratchet strap to secure it.

    I use one from MEC. I love it! Packs away the same size of a camp chair, only slightly longer.

    I mean the plastic ones are reasonably priced and indestructible. Hard to beat.
