Perfect review. Exactly what I was looking for. Cool setup! Thanks.
Thanks man! I'm actually sleeping in it now haha built really solid, I'll keep my thoughts on it updated on the channel. Get one you're happy with the first time!
Nice review and nice editing my dude!
Thank you 🙌🏻
Thanks bro! I'm considering getting the roof top tent. This review is awesome!
Also, what fridge is that?
Did you buy the tent online ?
I went to the store in Tennessee to buy and for them to install. The fridge is a 50qt ARB, that I got off eBay. Not sure they make that particular model anymore because the link I have for Amazon looks a little different
@@fjeric8989 thanks man, are you still loving the tent ?
Im building my truck now old dodge 20 years old with utibed for storage, looking at rtt tents, thanks for a good ,honest review,and straight to the point on issues you found good and bad ,I haven't made up my mind yet on tent smaller the better and waterproof is my main concerns,also mattress haha 😄 ,also I want to mount across utility bed and not front to back, ok I will shut up now,thanks again
Thanks! I'm sure you'll be happy with whatever you decide on 🤙🏻
Thanks for the rec bro, I’ve been looking for things to add to my 08’ Fj. What exhaust are you running? It sounds good.
Thanks for watching! I have a flowmaster super 10. Here's a link! I believe this was a 3" but 2.5" will probably work better.

@@fjeric8989 Appreciate it brotha, I’ve been thinking about getting Borla dual 2.5” exit cat back system, but I’ll keep this in mind.

Thank you for all the info ✌✌✌
Thank you ! Definitely enjoy the RTT lifestyle 🤘🏻
Good stuff!! hope to see you at the 2021 Moab Fall Classic #3 October 7 - 11th!! keep an eye on the Blueroom for more info!
Sick man! I'll do my best 🤙🏻
Have you considered spraying the boot bags with campdry or another type of waterproofing spray? Just curious and great review!
I haven't but that's a great idea!!
Very nice review
Thanks!
Thanks for making this video! I just want to ask what happened to the awning? Was the RTT too big for an Awning?
I sold it just so I can upgrade, there is plenty of room to mount one. And I plan on getting one this next year!
What’s the fridge brand/model? Thanks for a great video!
ARB 50qt here's an Amazon link but this i think this is the newer version. I bought mine used on eBay.

@@fjeric8989 thanks!
Great video! What roof rack is that and does the CVT mount fairly easily? I have an FJ with the smittybilt tent as well - Looking to go hard shell and possibly swap out the stock rack cause it sits so high. Thanks!
Warrior flat rack. Very low pro so the only challenge was getting under it but really simple mounting brackets (straight from the tent) Definitely recommend something lower than the stock. Looks and functions way better!

@@fjeric8989 You're the man! I was looking at the Front Runner rack, I like the Warrior better. Any idea if the hydraulics are strong enough that you could leave a kayak or something similar mounted to the tent's cross bars and still open the tent?
@@shredwardz I've heard 100lbs for it to open. But I've never tested it, solar panel is the only thing I have on it right now. I think there are some pics on cvt Instagram with tents open with kayaks on top of I'm not mistaken
@@fjeric8989 Sick I'll check that out, thanks again!
What are the little yellow blocks you used to level out the vehicle?
Got those leveling blocks at a local rv store. I know you can order them on Amazon too, they're just the cheapest ones you can buy.
this thing is sick
Thanks bro!
Can you put down where I can buy the fridge and the rooftop?
Is it noisy when it is windy?
Final question nobody who review these tents talk about: What car do you recommend to use hard shell tent?
Just got the fridge on eBay but if you want to buy new, arb website or 4wheelparts is where I've bought before. -- For the tent cascadiatents.com/ -- this has no wind noice or resistance. You will notice on the bulkier tents. As far as cars go.. they make three different sizes of this model (mt hood) I would recommend a flat rack and just whichever measurements match up. They're all the same length, it's the width that changes. I'm really just learning as I go, Hope this helps!
Wondering how gas mileage is affected by having a hard shell rooftop tent.
I don't notice it now that I have a wind deflector. It's on my car 24/7. I avg 12.5 mpg fully loaded.
But also have 3" lift with 35s so if you don't have that. You wouldn't notice adding 100 lbs tent 😅
@@fjeric8989 Thanks for getting back so quickly. I very much enjoyed your presentation. Do you know what gas mileage you got before installing a RTT. I like this one, Roofnest Condor and The Bush Co. Don't camp in much cold weather as I live in Mexico. Planning on coming north this summer to buy one. Also, Ididn't really understand the second part of your answer about the lift. Thanks
@@williesayulita I'm not sure what the mpg was before. I never really kept up with it as the FJ is not known for having good. By the lift and tired I meant I have a ton of weight along with steal bumpers, fridge, drawers, and if you're running a stock vehicle these aluminum tents shouldn't effect you're mpg at all but they're the best to go with if that's something you do care about!
how long does it take to store it though
Maybe 2 min to straighten the bed up and tuck the edges of the tent in
what's dimension of the tent?
Here's the Medium (that I have) closed is 85"x 56"x 9.75" other size dimensions are on their website! cascadiatents.com/mt-hood.html
How are you powering your fridge, off the factory inverter?
I've got a Wagan 800w ran to starter battery right now but once I set up dual battery it will be ran to that
Lol just found your video on just the fridge and inverter.
Nice! Really simple hook up, maybe it helps. Was my first time doing anything like that ha
Pro, lions and hyenas can't get to you at night, oh no need in North America, con, expensive, cost you at least 5 mpg, have to use ladder at night, not stable that high up, ground tent is cheap sets up just as fast, and easy night walks
Haha you right tho 😅
Do you pull your ladder in at night?
Nah I leave it out
cool
Thanks!
cool :p
Thanks!
Wa da fuuuuu?
