*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

link?

Seems like it, probably better than dealing with those stupid pins to keep the ladder locked!

 

I'm on the same 225 lb. boat as you. Added 2" (+ or -) of foam and it's a night and day comfort difference. Interested to hear your ladder review too because I'm getting sick of my CVT sliding ladder

 

Now when y'all say this cushion are y'all talking about adding it to your 3" foam already?

 

Yeah, the 2" - 3" foam pad goes on top of your existing RTT mattress...that's my understanding anyways!

 

Yeah, literally just picked up a memory foam topper from target and put it on top (may put it underneath for next trip) of the existing mattress and then put a sheet around the two of them

 

If you guys are upgrading your ladders to telescopic ones, wth does your tent come with in the first place?..

 

Its like a mini roofing ladder... To small sections stacked on eachother that slides on a track and locks in with pins

 

.....and depending on where you mount your RTT, you have to drill new holes for said pins. Kind of sketch and all RTT's should come with the telescoping ladders.

 

I think most if not all do now a days atleast from tepui and CVT

 

Agreed. Also not all telescoping ladders are the same either. Rung attachments can vary drastically in quality and strength. Same goes for the locking tabs that lock each rung in place. Tepui ladders have the strongest capacity and rung attachments available as well as the locking tabs which are located on the base of each rung. The locking tabs in this location allows the ladder to be quickly collapsed in one motion when you put the ladder away, instead of having to unlock and collapse each rung individually with some other brands. I know of at least one brand that has the locking tabs on the face of each rung which can run the risk of collapsing a rung accidentally by hitting the tab with your feet when you climb up the ladder.

Everyone has there preference, but after years of experience, I personally am a huge fan of the telescoping ladders over the sliding style. And Tepui has the best one out there IMO.

 

Awesome, thanks for the answers guys. Yeah, my odin designs RTT came with a nice telescopic one - I just figured they all did. Still new in the whole RTT scene.

 

Im new too but did a BUTT LOAD of research

 

Nice.
Where at?

 

@cmack @jberry813

I love ya'll man.

 

there website or Amazon... took it out 10 times total this summer... cant say enough good things about it...

 

10x? Jesus. I cant wait till i get that much off time to do that.. I think i went out 5-6 times this summer.

 

when you live in Colorado, you have plenty of places to go that require a campsite.

 

How much are the telescope style ladders?

 

I haven't been camping since March. I'm glad somebody gets to camp.
