My RTT is on my trailer and parked inside the garage.Wouldn't a roof top tent require a roof rack? That's alot of top weight on a Jeep. IMHO. I vote regular tent. Way cheaper. Way more versatile. And I'd think a regular tent would be alot easier to upgrade or replace. Plus it's not out in the weather all the time. As I'd assume a roof top tent wouldn't be something easily taken off and stored in your garage each time. Not to mention the cost. I'd spend that extra money on other Jeep improvements before a RTT.

I am 6.0 and 240, and I have no issues with my RTT. It is actually really strong. I too understand not wanting it on the roof of my Jeep I wouldn't either, That is why like @lowranger, I have mine on the trailer. I understand your wanting to not tow a trailer or have a RTT, but just wanted you to know that it would have no problems holding you, if you ever changed your mind.Ya. Your's is different. I've admired it's utility for some time. And it would be cool to have a trailer some day. But I'm still not sold on RTT's though. PRobably because I'm a big guy. 6'3" 250. Getting up into a RTT does not appeal to me. I feel like something would break and fall. lol. Plus it's so much weight to pull or carry around. I'm more comfortable with a 5lb tent and being on the ground. But that's just me. I could see where some folks like to be up off the ground. But for me it's part of the experience of living outdoors. And most of my time spent outdoors isn't beside my Jeep. The Jeep gets parked at a trailhead. SO that's a big difference too. If your car camping it makes more sense. But with a $1000+ expense and over 100lb weight penalty. I'm part of the ground tent crowd.
Seriously? You building a ride by committee or something?
