Are you considering buying a traditional soft top Roof Top Tent? In this video I share my experiences with my Front Runner Featherlite 1.3 Roof Top Tent. I have owned this tent for almost four years and although I wouldn't consider myself a hardcore overlander with multiple long term expeditions under my belt, I have lived in the tent with my wife Megan for almost three months while traveling Northern Europe. We also camp in the RTT as a family almost all year round and as seasoned campers in general we have gained some good experience in this style of RTT and I thought I would share it in a video.
Overall I think this particular tent is a very good option for people like Megan and I who vehicle camp regularly or plan on traveling for long periods of time. Its also light weight enough to maintain a good center of gravity from the vehicle if you which to tackle technical tracks and trails where the vehicle will be off camber.
I cant see this specific tent being use for long term expeditions in remote locations. I think its reduction in weight has reduced its durability and fabric weight making it susceptible to excessive wear under harsh conditions.
Hopefully this video can be of use to someone and once again thanks for watching.
