[@JKGearandGadgets]

What are your thoughts on Rooftop tents? Be sure to leave a comment and a thumbs up! See you guys next week with a new video and giveaway 🤘

[@jasoncovington3219]

Been itching to try overlanding with my family in our Gladiator. Thanks for sharing.

[@danarteritano1340]

Pretty nice tent, how long does it take from parking to being completely setup?

[@mrderek800]

JK Gear and Gadgets, will you be adding more merchandise to the tee spring store?

[@JKGearandGadgets]

Derek I need to find someone to make me a new logo and some designs!

[@JKGearandGadgets]

Dan Arteritano so far, I can do it alone in about 8 minutes . I’m sure once me and Cassie get some practice we can do it quicker

[@JeepGearGadgets]

My thought is that we need to get out and test it ASAP. Too bad it is snowing this weekend😅

[@JKGearandGadgets]

Wussy, snow makes it better!!!

[@jnightrod]

We barely have an inch here in southern Chesapeake.

[@shawnvergilia1609]

Maybe a 1/2" in Richmond

[@huntermitchell7364]

It's already been back to the 80s in texas :(

[@ivanfromtheeast4709]

Hunter Mitchell yeah we broke 75 here in Cali

[@royreedyT-Rex]

nice way to take the family out and spend time together while still enjoying the Jeep life. Good job brother

[@zr2zamboni906]

I have a RTT mounted on a removable bed rack on my ZR2 Colorado. Lifts on/off with manual garage hoist. Mine has a full annex that covers the stairs too, good for changing clothes / showers. No regrets. Nice to be able to remove the RTT if not needed (unwanted weight).

[@brucemartin835]

Love the color of the “Bed-top” tent. Now just need to make some memories with the family!

[@heathermiller78]

Buy once... Cry once... Words to live by when building and buying for adventure travel. Your going to love this.. Great video as always.

[@MRALL4FUN]

You guy’s are going to have a blast making new memories for years to come

[@dederonair]

I like the rainfly is a window! That would be so relaxing watching it just wash on by the window laying there and listening to the drops on tent! The annex looks cool too with a full floor! Cant wait to see how it holds up!

[@kevinhagen3231]

That’s a great looking tent! I can’t wait to go camping this summer and make some new memories with my daughter.

[@davidmerritt1114]

Man that tent is nice. You guys are making great memories for your girls. I like your Jeep setup.

[@bajakitesurfer9542]

Excellent Video - thanks for starting from opening the box on the ground to fully installed and deployed - very helpful to see you both going through the uplift process to your rack ( we will all have to do this !) Thanks for taking the time to show the detail quality up close and your initial likes - also good to see you have it fully deplored with rain fly and all windows open ( to get an idea of light level available inside the tent ) and lastly , having all four of you up there and inside together really gives you perspective on the interior space - tent looks Good ! Great Video -Thanks !👍🏼

[@exodusventures373]

After watching this - I think I am going to buy the RoofNest Condor. This is way more work than I really want to do.

[@adamaldinger6960]

Thats a nice looking tent! Looks like it all fits together with your custom build rack and your topper. Thanks for sharing

[@dk12811]

Your Gladiator build is looking really good and I like that Roam tent. Have a great time camping.

[@davepetroski1523]

Great video. Great to see how you include the kiddos in you adventures.

[@jimmyk2330]

Great video as always Ben.....I really like the ones with you and Cassie together, there’s always a good laugh.

[@jessesanders6574]

Love the tent!! That's what it's about enjoying the outdoors with the family!!

[@Donnietill]

Priceless! Time with the family! Looks great!

[@NealeyUNC23]

Awesome video. Looking forward to your camping video to see how you liked it!

[@mheib9904]

Impressed how you and your wife hoisted that tent up on the Jeep. I needed a couple of guys to help with a 6 pack to get it on my Gobi Stealth.

[@LOVE-62]

That tent looks so good. Way bigger than I was expecting. Kids will love it 👍🏻

[@GT32004]

So so so funny when you put it on, made my day. Nice family, you will have a lot of fun, different then rock crawling, the feeling of going and saying hey its nice here let's setup is very nice, Im sure you will enjoy. Protecting your rig is #1 priority when you go far. I've experience places impossible to reach any other way with that level of confort. Enjoy

[@lbbowhunter1]

Really appreciate your reviews. You have really helped me with my purchased in May 19 2015 rubicon. Thanks again.

[@jkustockaphobia2421]

Love the olive drab color of the tent ! Looks sick

[@gutajo01]

It awesome... that tent looks great and a lot of room With the Gladiator looks woo... great add congrats and thanks for the video

[@dailydrivenH2]

at 1:57 A 2 hand job lol my wife ASKED what the H_ll are you watching when she heard that lol nice jeep man keep up the great videos

[@rileybest6084]

I love the idea of a rooftop tent very versatile much easier than a trailer yours is awesome by far the best looking I have seen and it looks great on the gladiator

[@sassinator21]

I’m not too much of a camping guy but I could see myself getting a rack and tent to do a weekend here and there... definitely you guys are gonna have fun. I’m really enjoying your gladiator build.

[@tylerp9620]

You guys kill me! This is real world stuff ha ha. This really is the most helpful roof top tent video I have watched.

[@robertmckelvey6564]

Looks like the family is going to have an awesome camping trip coming up. Have fun.

[@Scott_69HemiDart]

Another awesome video...........love the roof top tent. I have several Olight, only lights I buy now, they are great and rechargeable.

[@MrSokkermasta]

What an amazing family. This gives me hopes to someday I’ll have one of my own like yours.

[@yipeeiaye]

Boot bags? No, don't you mean "Croc Carriers"?

[@JKGearandGadgets]

Now this is the best comment so far!!

[@ssrevo007]

Definitely like the green. Looks like a pretty nice set up can’t wait to see you guys out using it.

[@Anthony_Adventures]

I can’t wait for the summer time to come around to go camping and go wheeling. Keep up the great content that JT is for sure the best looking one I’ve seen on KZbin in my opinion

[@vavendano2000]

Nice. Welcome to the world.of rtt's. Extremely fun and great quality time. I personally own a tuff stuff rtt and love it. Never an issue. Enjoy your purchase.

[@JKGearandGadgets]

The kids love it so far! Im excited to see how it works and spend some quality time with the family offroading and camping

[@gwzimmerman4480]

Y'ALL are so gifted to HAVE THESE awsome camping Thing's 🇺🇸❤👍

[@BattlePhrog165]

Love the videos with both you and Cassie together.

[@timwatkins3828]

"That be Sky" = best quote!!!!

[@accordnc]

Dang Ben and Cassie that thing looks awesome. I've got twin 5 year old girls and we live in nc. I was looking at these and glad you did a video on it. We definitely need the xl after seeing this. Have fun adventuring.

[@joshmorton8697]

Yay RTT! Excited to see how your rack works with it!!!

[@JasonOster12]

It looks nice. I was thinking of getting into roof to tents. Cannot wait for an update on how you like it.

[@nathanwoodard7661]

This Jeep just keeps getting better and better 😍

[@capbice]

looks like a great addition. Wish things like this had been available when I as tent camping

[@tbx59]

Great rig - have fun with your family with it.

[@lesszabo5625]

That's a real nice tent. I went to their web site and they definitely did some work on what works. Quality compared to price, I believe it's one of the best on the market. Thanks for a the video showing the setup.

[@philippatterson735]

Great looking Gladiator. Hope you enjoy the tent

[@tylerrsellerss]

Love this RTT. Roam Adventure Co makes a nice looking set up. I love their blue tents.

[@lloydrage]

Great video! Loved the over view and general discuss. Also sick flashlight

[@davincciaguililla]

I love the way your Gladiator build is going, we are considering getting a roof tent for our JL too. Looking forward for that review and your experience, would love to hear from a guy/family new to this stuff.

[@MrRhartwell]

Great job on the install and may you guys get many awesome adventures in it. Take care and happy trails.

[@anthonymartinez5144]

Gladiator is lookin killer, love how you are setting it up. Would be perfect for an upcoming trip to flat nasty offroad park in Missouri for a R/C crawler event at the end of March. R/C crawlers and 1:1 crawlers, going to be a blast

[@heycoachmoose]

Family adventures are going to be awesome for you guys!

[@star06rt]

Thanks for the share! I just order this RTT yesterday for my son who's in Oregon because he had a different model on his Wedding Registry. I question him why a tent son? So after researching his model and others. Roam won me over. My son still wanted the cheaper model, but i only allow him to pick the color of the Roam and he should have it soon(before his wedding date) Thank guys for your videos and I hope that my son post a video of his own has well. Happy overlanding.

[@jordanhenderson2432]

That color is awesome! Excited for warm weather to get my young ones out. Love the videos man, keep em coming.

[@joobthejk2041]

The rack and tent look great on the Gladiator.

[@richtyler1353]

Anxious to see more about your experience with the roof top tent. I’m looking for a tent for my xj

[@fordracerforever]

I never really liked roof top tents for wranglers but on the JT it makes sense and it’s at the perfect height. The annex seals the deal. Pretty cool set up!

[@off-roadskys4250]

Just ordered this exact tent for our first RTT. Pretty excited about seeing these videos with good reviews!

[@michaelmurray2592]

Perfect tent for your little family!

[@mikeoverlanding]

I appreciate your videos and you sharing your knowledge and experiences. Nice family too! I am in the market foe a RTT so this honest set-up was helpful. Much Appreciated!

[@ovobuzzkill326]

Gives a whole new meaning to the “bed” of the truck!

[@FROSTBITEOFFROAD]

Love the Roam tent! Definitely got the right color!

[@Zangadorian]

Love the thought of the bed top tent that tucks down below the line of the cab. Keep that CG low!

[@michaeldurling793]

You and the family are going to love your RTT. The challenge is getting the Jeep close to level before set up, a stash of scrap wood of various thickness's to put under tires is helpful. I like the green color best, although the darker color will be hotter in the warm months. Figure out a way to close the air gap between the cab and the tent to reduce aerodynamic drag and you may just leave it mounted. Looking forward to your first family adventure.

[@MrBigshow101171]

Looks awesome, and a great adventure for the kids

[@quentinbryant8366]

That tent looks awesome! Great color!

[@danhambrick6331]

Man that thing looks awesome Ben.The add on is pretty cool too...

[@mikehoffman3690]

Just because you have a roof top tent, doesn’t make you an overlander. That is so true. We have logged over 16,000 miles of Overland trails in our 2016 JK and Offroad trailer. Completed the coast to coast TransAmerica Trail, Continental Divide Trail (Mexico to Canada) and TransWisconsin Trail. We are still learning the ins and outs but are getting more comfortable after each trip.

[@jasonnourry9612]

The tent looks awesome! And the colour is perfect 👍

[@seanbrown3338]

Now I need to buy a Gladiator so I can buy that tent! The green is AWESOME!

[@jakemoore9100]

Loving the tent! Excited to see the light review coming and the Jk stuff to come!

[@shaggy5521]

Love the rooftop tent, the only thing stopping me from buying one is having all that weight up top. I'm curious to your impressions of driving with it on road and offroad.

[@dg5240]

Sweet dude! We got the xl version for the top of our cargo trailer/ chuck wagon. Can't wait to try it

[@lonewulf0328]

I think that I may have to look into this tent when I finally start outfitting a Gladiator. I'm shopping for a good price now on a Rubicon, so within the next month hopefully (missed the presidents day sales). I haven't been camping in years, but I want to find a new hobby. I had gone back to school, so the last 4 years have been so hectic, when I finish school this December, I want to find something to fill in that time, and specifically something to do with the family too.

[@Just_Jazzy333]

Looks great been watching for about 1 yr.Your videos are great on how to work on a jeep since i got a 2018 JL and looking to make it better!!!

[@asuperdud572]

very nice set up. can't wait to see how it holds up

[@kurtismatthewjinks]

Nice Ben, I'm working toward this as well. It's a very expensive hobby so I'm spreading it out over a few years. My little one is just over a year old so I have some time.

[@0waverunner0]

you are not wrong about the neighborhood mechanic thing...hahaha tent looks awesome!!

[@Dfts83]

That RTT looks awesome on the JT!!!

[@marklestersebandal8750]

Hope to have this kind of set up on my multicab. Very Inspiring video. Thanks men.

[@oscarpatino330]

Thanks for the video.... the tent looks great! keep up the good work.

[@mandt3d146]

I'm excited to see where you go and use it.

[@tonysmith5204]

Looks awesome, I have seen another roof top tent demo and their kids are older and they installed stacking bunk bed/cots in the vestibule along with a small propane heater. Next you need a slide out kitchen for the bed of the truck. 😁

[@toddm83]

Awesome love the tent color. Would match perfectly to my JKU

[@shooterg2071]

That was a funny video! I actual had got pains watching it. Great tent choice. You'll love camping with it.

[@90eurovw]

Awesome video! I think I know what tent I will be getting!!

[@louarmentano3831]

Love the tent...looks great on the gladiator! Definitely let us know when you try it!

[@Joshu796]

Beautiful family. Thanks for sharing

[@BunnyTJ]

Like the tent Ben. Looks like a really good option. The kids could also sleep in the anex later when they get bigger

[@tymesho]

I just found your channel and subbed. I've been looking at alot, and your channel rocks! TY.

[@jordanvinski3601]

Man, you sure show a lot of people some good stuff, really like it, make me want one, maybe when I get a gladiator someday, our dogs probably ain’t good with that ladder though like the fold up at the end man

[@1stzjtruck706]

Looks great on the gladiator. Keep up the great videos.

[@YAABUGGN]

Those tents are so cool. I too like the ROAM company, I saw them at the SEMA event. Heard their customer service is awesome.

[@JRsVsO]

Thanks for this video. I'm looking into a rooftop tent for my 12' JK and will need a mounting brackets for it but mentioning brands to look at was a help, along with what it took to mount yours and the weight of it.

[@buckbuck4197]

Thanks for the video on the roof to tent! Just found you channel, keep them coming!

[@tylerm97]

Very nice! I have a soft top JK so regular tents for me, but I do like the idea of rooftop tents.

[@TexaSteven]

Great looking tent, I’m been shopping around and ROAM is in my top 5ish.. really want a hardshell Roost Top Tent but 3k is to much for a tent..here’s a tip for you and the family since you have the annex you can put a Mr Buddy Heater down below on a small hard table and let the heat rise while y’all sleep if in cold weather, they are safe but you can leave a vent open up top to make sure no carbon monoxide poisoning risk.

[@johnhollis2565]

Tent is nice. Have looked at them just don’t have a need for one yet. Keep up the great videos.

[@PacificViking808]

Very cool! Eventually I’m thinking about getting a rooftop tent for my JKU!
