    They are too short. I'm getting him longer hardware tomorrow. Pics are just him test fitting the clamps....Pretty sure he is not driving around like that.

    I had kydex sleeves between my RTT and bed bars and the slippery kydex caused the tent to move off road. Make sure you have it all really tight and watch for movement when you hit the trail.

    From the same manufacturer that makes the cvt... Without the label. Exact same materials and construction... The additions and parts are interchangeable

    That tent for starters has plastic hinges, poles that are lower grade materials than cvt, and no warranty...so how is it "exactly" the same?

    Looks fine to me. I'm not sure why you care I do. Not all of us have the available funds to get a 2k tent, but still want to have the luxury of overlanding experience and to be off the ground.

    I'm a military nurse with student loans man, I'm not making bank, just trying to be able to get away for a weekend or two easily and I'm over setting up ground tents and tearing them down... Wasted time that could be used exploring.

    I just love guys that put a figure on things like every reputable manufacturer is 2k when its actually not.

    Edit: I agree though fun and all that stuff is what you make it and not what you spend.
