Many Pics in the Expo post: Custom Built Clamshell Roof Top Tent - Large Size - Black - Charlotte, NC - Expedition Portal
As much as I LOVE this tent it's just not large enough to comfortably sleep my family of 4 anymore. I'm the second owner of this tent so I don't have a lot of background on it other than it was custom built by a camper manufacturer who was contracted by the previous owner. Construction is a typical fiberglass shell with a 3" memory foam mattress as the base. Below are the specs on it:
Fiberglass Shell - Black
Size - 84" L x 58" W
3" Memory Foam Mattress
Tent Material - Rip Stop
Suspended by 4 Gas Struts - One in each corner
Storage Pockets on Each side
Large Zip down windows with screens on each end
Large Zip down doors on each side with screens
Optional Canopies over both doors suspended with collapsible tent poles
Collapsible Aluminum Ladder - Stores in tent
Tent roof is lined
Mounts to Standard aftermarket cross bars (2 or 3) Yakima, Thule, Rhino, etc
The tent is currently mounted to a 3 bar Rhino system on my Land Cruiser but it was previously mounted to 2 Thule cross bars attached to the OEM racks. I had no issues with the OEM rack other than the ride height. Swapping to the Rhino racks allowed for a lower profile mounting and a more modular system. We traveled across the country a few months ago with the tent on the OEM rack with no issues. I would love to just keep the tent for trips with only my son but I don't have the space to store 2 RTTs in my suburban garage. I still have the Thule Cross bars and foot kit so if the buyer needs them I'll throw them in with the purchase of the tent.
Price for Tent and Thule Bars - SOLD (Awing and Rhino bars pictured NOT included)
Not looking to ship the tent as it's just too big and bulky. Local pick up in Charlotte, NC area preferred or I can drive to meet at a reasonable distance for the right deal.
