    Definitely. That all affects where the top of the bed rack ends up.

    The lift would aid in your favor (if you wanted the annex) that is

    Not really. I have a 3" lift and All Pro bed bars that put the tent just level with the roofline and there's not enough room under the tent floor to be useful for much unless you're four feet tall.

    It will but not enough to make a significant difference. My tent is level with my Prinsu rack and im on 35's and can't use the annex very functionally

    So am I and my annex is useless cause I'm running a front runner bed rack


    If your tent sits above roof level, the annex works well. If it don't then no workie unless you're a midget in height

    Everyone likes pictures more. You can see how the annex wouldn't give much added useful space.

    Tim at gfsr.com was talking to me about a floorless annex. Maybe something like that would work?

    A small handful of select mods.
    I don't know. IMO it would still be useful in your set up there. With the annex connected you could still stand up straight in the overhang part to change or do some yoga and the part behind the ladder, where you cannot stand up, could be for cots for extra guests or for gear that you don't want to get wet overnight. Most people that ground tent do pack a tent you cannot stand up in usually. Unless they are glamping. Then they pack a 5 room mansion. :D

    Reputable company here guys! I was quite surprised to find they've been in this business for 15 years. I'm very happy with my GEO GT140 and even happier with the customer service!

    @fatfurious2 the GT165 has the vestibule and includes the annex for less than $900 (40% off list price). You'll have to pay actual shipping charges though due to the big discount. I can help with a TW Express from SC to you if it helps keep the costs down any.

    I could have waited to see the response from GEO. I purchased the FSR small with canopy for $995 shipped. And they are going to give me a forum discount on the annex or another accessory. Just don't know exactly what that is yet.

    They have free shipping through the end of the year

    Definitely this!

    I wanted to be able to stand up under my tent so I made sure there would be 5'10 inches or more under it. Im 5'9 lol. Built a bed rack and now the base of the tent sits 3 inches higher than when I first put it on due to tires and lift... itll sit even higher when I go AAL and shackle flip

    What these guys said! Even with bed bars and a low floor height, you still have headroom in front and to the sides of the ladder with the canopy.

    Good call, @Gramps!

    MT stuff, RTT stuff, the usual.
    What's the price, shipped on these 165s? Have a friend looking to get into the RTT game.
