Very nicely done! Especially liked the initial mounting walk-through on your 4 Runner.

[@destinationjourney_overland]

Thank you, I appreciate that. Thanks for watching!

[@Robert-Jaudon]

Very nice! Good tent from the looks of it. Thank you for the video.

[@destinationjourney_overland]

Thank you for watching!

[@redbeastadventures]

Great video. Thanks for making it. Looks like they made some improvements to this version of the tent as they did with the Stellar variant. Put in the vents, upgraded the bar and posts (looks the same from the videos I watched) as the new Stellar. Was going to go with the Stellar but I like the improvements to this one and the larger side windows to allow more airflow. So I might get this one instead.

[@BrandonTalbot]

This was super helpful. Lots of important bits about installation with the roof rack. Thank you. How's it treating you so far?

[@destinationjourney_overland]

It has been great. I did get a new fsr aircore mattress which is a nice upgrade. But otherwise love it.

[@Yesteryearmedia]

Exactly how many inches thick is the Closed Shell - which would also include the TRACK that's welded on the bottom? Great video - Thank you!

[@macairtuber]

Need this measurement also

[@andrewcable694]

Great review, I just ordered one! With a 1” Riser would you be able to reach in to install the nut on a bracket on one of the middle crossbars. I have a 4Runner with Sherpa Creststone, so similar setup. Thanks

[@destinationjourney_overland]

I’m not sure on the Sherpa. You would not be able to do that on the prinsu rack. What some people do is install the crossbar on the tent first before putting it up on the roof rack. But that takes precise measuring. If you’re getting 1 inch risers from prints, I would suggest also getting four extra grade 8 bolts, washers and lock nuts from the hardware store so you can have two mounting points in each riser. Prinsu only provides 1 bolt for each riser

[@cameron7889]

Is it possible for someone who is 6 feet tall to sleep with their head towards the hard shell? Thanks

[@destinationjourney_overland]

I think you could sleep that way. But need to watch your head when sitting up.

[@bobbybrown5497]

Question, do you think someone 6.5 could fit in one of these?

[@destinationjourney_overland]

It might be tight unless you lay a little diagonal. The mattress is about 79in and you are 77in. So you’re going to be going edge to edge.

How much does this tent affect fuel mileage at interstate speeds?

[@destinationjourney_overland]

I just took a trip to Missouri with the wind. There was no effect on the way back against a pretty strong wind. I lost about a mile to a mile and a half per gallon from my best estimates.

[@tristanklehr9855]

when’s the 5 runner coming out?
