Nice review. How strong are the struts and are they easily replaceable? Mainly, I want to carry my recovery gear in a rifle case and canoe on top of the tent. My only concern is if the tent can still open and stay open with weight on the racks.

Alright. I will certainly seek and extra hand to mount it. Thank you for such a quick response. I look forward to watching your other videos as I just discovered you last night while searching for this tent brand review. I’m leaning pretty hard on ordering this tent from Amazon. Though I don’t yet have a rack system to mount it on yet. I drive a 2004 Wrangler LJ. Limited options for roof racks for the LJs. Just got into off road/trail riding about a year ago. It has been a good transition from backpacking/campground camping and my former motor sports over many years ago of Moto-cross in the 70s to car racing in the 80s and go karts in the 90s. Combines the mechanical vehicle world with the hiking/camping world. I’ve spent most of my trail driving in the Daniel Boone National Forest & Red River Gorge area. Thank you again.

They have sites from full hookups to primitive sites that are $10 per night. The little store makes burgers and great pizzas if you have a lazy cooking day.

(I have a video on that - "camping prep vlog"). If you keep it all original, you can fit a decent amount of stuff inside. 2. I would say it's decently heavy but not as heavy as my old smittybilt Rooftop Tent. Maybe a total of 125 to 150 lbs (just guessing). I did get it on my roof rack by myself. It was tough. Two people would be recommended 😆 Hope that helps some! It's super dark inside. I like it better than my smittybilt RTT. The ease of set up and take down is my favorite part.
