*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

This is why I love Tepui Ruggedized

From freezing temps in the 20's



To extreme heat 115 degrees

 

I personally love the orange Adam, and the Kawasaki green has me pretty stoked as well. I'll let Bobby release the spec sheet, and as I understand it the condensation mat is included in this one. Fabrics are sturdier on these and the floor is redesigned to be stronger as well, both upgrades to the Tepui ruggedized. I don't have the specs in front of me but I know the denier CVT went with was higher than the ruggedized Tepui. The ladders have been re-designed as well to prevent you from pinching your fingers as you stow it.

As for the rear door I haven't seen that yet so I couldn't say. Mine will always be the Mckinley so it's sort of irrelevant for me personally.

 

Its diamond plate floor, same thing as the ruggedized Tepui's.. As for the ladder its the same one that comes on all Tepui's (or at least very very similar). It does look nearly identical to a Tepui ruggedized though, good to see CVT have an "upper" line of tents though

 

Diamond plate exterior. Inside the floor is entirely redesigned to a honeycomb structure instead of joists.

 

In other words, no more denting the floor.

 

Its the same in everything in life. Companies borrow from other companies to improve their product and vice versa. Treeline outdoors has had a honeycomb floor for a couple years with good success and i imagine tepui and other companies will follow. Both are great companies and make good products to suit many differnt people's lifestyles and needs. This isnt a pissing match about whose tent is better. Its about people getting outdoors eith friends and family and making memories.

 

Im just gonna say get outside and enjoy nature, ive never understood the whole "which company makes the x product" better when the differences between the two companies in question are marginal at best. My tent is unbranded but it opens up, and sleeps me pretty goood.

 

Goes for anything that someone wants to purchase.

Not taking away from anything you've said as it's pretty much spot on.

 

Smart idea using a ac unit to cool it down

 

This is my problem with all "extreme" colors on tents. They sure look cool - until you have to wake up in the morning in them. I'll take a nice neutral color any day.

 

My orange isn't bad at all in the mornings

 

Very happy to hear this. I love that rugged orange

 

Mine either. I second that!!!!!!!!

 

TepuiFest 2015 Report!!
What a blast! We don't know if it's the off-roading, the live music, the campfires burning 24/7 or just the joy of camping and playing games with your Tepui community, but something keeps on bringing so many familiar faces back to Hollister Hills for TepuiFest, and we love it! And of course, somebody must've told somebody else because we were equally glad to have made a bunch of new friends this year. Thank you all so much for driving out to Hollister Hills again this year for TepuiFest 2015!

Bummed to have missed this year's event.

 

I actually feel like the green makes it a little dark in the morning but I dunno I was kinda cloudy too

 

You have to remember that in addition to the new colors the fabric is thicker and blocks more light. What I f by like about the colors is that it stands out, and I already get enough attention with mine up.

 

Never have I ever answered soo many questions since getting a rtt while I was camping

 

Truth. I now send all my customers with business cards and have them just call me. Even after 60 years they still have a lot of shock value.
