    First summer that I had mine I never saw another unless it was another TWer. Which explains why my rig got more stares than a circus sideshow. Last year I saw a few and now this summer I've seen them just about everywhere I go. ARB, CVT, Tepui, Baroud, Autohome, Howling Moon....just about every brand. I'd say they're catching on.

    True, most people go mudding here and have no need for a RTT

    I've seen a few people break the cover after zipping a little bit of the tent into it. Almost happened to me, but I saved it.

    So nervous to do that! haha I didn't understand how the slide part worked until the second time I used it. The zipper seems simple enough to understand though haha.

    I really like how my cover is held in place via a ratchet strap as opposed to a zipper. 1 less zipper to have to worry about.

    so no one has put a rtt on stock suspension?.. I sold my lifted prerunner and wanted to put my rtt on my 2015 but I don't want to kill my suspension if someone did it and it killed their pack

    oh I am planning on it.. but I don't want to kill it now cause I can't afford it right now. I thought about like a cheap aal just for when it lowers i don't have a bro lean.. its only 2 day old truck.. so would like to get longer than that on my suspension..

    I've had an AAL in since I bought it 2 years ago. I have only had the RTT on for about a month but I'm getting Dakars within 6 months or so

    On a stock 2015 my rear was just lower than the front (didn't take any measurements) with a RTT, over the bed, and a KTM on a hitch hauler.

    how long did you leave it on your truck and how much weight was that? how long did it take for your suspension to return to normal

    You can get a set of timbrens. They're about $215.00. That way you'll have your stock ride without the RTT, and the rear will only drop about 1"-1 1/2" with the RTT.

    I just put the RTT on for trips, don't like leaving it on. As for the weight, about 160 for the tent and some gear and 300 for the dirt bike and hitch hauler and that's leveraged off the back. Once I got home and took everything off the suspension seemed fine, but since then I added Firestone Ride-Rites to the back.

    I always leave my RTT on and the only thing ive got goin on in the rear are Fox 2.0 shocks and i made some Bastard leaf packs with a single leaf spring from like a 3500. Got like 5" of lift in the rear and the RTT keeps it at around 4" + all my camping gear that i carry with me all the time. There's a way to do it on the cheap(i did it) you just gotta take a weekend and knock it out
