i know a place near you that i plan on going to again that i would recommend you at least check out - it's Mt Baldy in the Colville Ntl forest. Just an old fire tower on top of a mountain. Really fun! Wouldn't camp near it though considering there's a bear den nearby. Not super crazy in terms of trail difficulty, i took a stock 2nd gen explorer up there. but it's cool!

I still haven't found a pop out clam shell tent better than the FSR Aspen Lite series. It's a few bucks more than the Topoak. But it's better in just about every way. Extremely lightweight, that doesn't rob your payload like the Topoak and many others do. High quality construction. Hands down, the very best mattress of ANY RTT. All the features you can ask for. Diesel heater/AC/electric ports, insulated, the list goes on.
@macairtuber
@macairtuber 2 ай бұрын
Aspen lite is a great tent IF you don't need to mount an awning to the side of the tent, you are OK not getting any crossbars or ability to carry anything significant on the tent and you are ok spending over $1000 more. And the mattress is the same 'tech' that people like Exped and amazon knock-offs have been doing for 10+ years. It also just adds to the setup / takedown time having to inflate / deflate the mattress - yeah I know you can buy rechargeable inflators for cheap but still more to deal with. The battle of weight, height, strength (accessory mounting options) and comfort is real - Pick your preference. I personally think the Intrepid Geo 2.5 is the best tent on the market - but too much overland tax on it. Waiting for a knockoff of that one at TopOak prices. 2nd fav is the regular FSR Aspen V2 XL.

Maybe the side awnings roll up and tie back when you don't want them? That's the only thing I don't like, I get the rain benefit but I mostly camp in decent weather and don't want to have to put those up every time just to see out and have the windows open. Otherwise a great looking tent, I hope this puts all the 4k tents in check. The U bar support is far superior to roofnest, glad to see that.

Excellent review of this RTT and playing Devil’s advocate. I was teetering between different mid-ranged tents and I think you have me finally sold on this one. All those other expensive RTTs out there can flash their brand and price tag on vehicles but it’s all about usability, quality finish, practicality combined with the bottom line $$$. I think this has it all for those who are ok not branding a status symbol. I think people should shop wisely according to their needs and how often they use their tents. Is it two seasons a year with a few weekends each or much more than that. Thanks for your comparison as well to the 1.0 and all the upgrades included to show how the 2.0 is better.

Roof top tents are pretty good and solid now, even any amazon knockoffs. Theres one feature what i would like to see in Roof tents, some kind of easy and solid way to attach diesel heater house instead of stickig it between zipper. Some hookup and integrated vents or whatever. I live in Canada and nights can be pretty cold even when its +30 during day.....and winter?

Great video - really appreciate the detailed review. On the Galaxy 2.0, the side canopy is a great idea, but you end up losing that larger side door/window and therefore ambient lighting. When you tested both, did the 1.0 have noticeably more ambient natural lighting than the 2.0? Living in the SE during humid summers, any additional open screening for enhanced air movement is appreciated. If natural light and airflow are key, would you recommend the 1.0 over the 2.0 model? Or do the upgrades, in your opinion, outweigh any reduced ambient lighting and airflow? Wonder if TopOak plans to incorporate all the structural and hardware upgrades on the 1.0 that you discussed for the 2.0 on this video. Thanks again.

This is certainly a great looking tent and a definite improvement over "Gen1" but what are the advantages of having a RTT over a ground tent? I'm just not convinced. Having an extra 175 lbs. (or whatever) bolted to the roof while transversing an off-camber trail doesn't leave me with a good feeling. Taking a leak in the middle of the night becomes more involved. Critters can climb ladders, so security isn't enhanced. And, if you spend more than one night at a campsite, you just can't take off and explore. I guess there is an application where a RTT is superior, I just can't figure that out yet. LMK. I do appreciate the review. I think it was thorough. Maybe there's a video you can do where you compare going on a trip or two where you use each type of tent. Thanks.

In my somewhat limited experience with both rtt and ground camping, the main advantages of the rtt for me are cleanliness and ease of use. Here in Scandinavia it rains a lot, and quite often muddy. Packing a tent with a muddy base not a huge problem, but I really dislike it. Apart from wiping down your ladder, mud isn't really a thing you deal with rtt camping. Setting up an rtt, even a softshell kukenam like I have, is easier and quicker than most ground tents. Add to this the fact that you can leave pillows, sleeping bags, blankets etc in the rtt when packed up, the rtt is just a more hassle-free experience. This as you mention comes at the drawback of poorly placed weight. Softshells are generally lighter, mine weighs 60 kg or 130 lbs, and I don't really feel the weight unless taking a tight turn at high speed, and the rollover point is still far beyond what I have the balls to do haha. Another drawback is the price, you could get a whole, great ground camp setup for the price of just an rtt. Rtt's are definitely not for everyone, but even with the drawbacks I still prefer rtt camping.

After getting a hard shell tent myself, I have had half dozen people wanting to see it in action in the first month of owning it. Mine being a bit bigger than most “Skycamp” but for those who don’t have kids or smaller families this would be perfect! and the price is a great value! I checked their website site out to pass on info on the Topoak tent. A tent with all of its features plus capable add ons for $1499 and $499 for shipping to Canada still beats the rest in this category. I tried your discount code to get a final price of $1848 US. Topoak’s next decision is to find a Canadian distributor? Thanks for the info! I like the cameo on the back of your rig.

I haven't had issues with that and we run one of these that is over a year old... but one thing is, the tent skylight really doesnt' see that much sun... most the time the tent is closed....

So glad I wanted on ordering a tent because this one seems like exactly what I’ve been looking for as long as it’ll fit on my Gobi rack.

Looks like you went up poison creek, one of my favorite places. I own a Thule Tepui Autana with annex that will comfortably sleep six if you use the lower annex tent. I got it on an inventory winter sale for the same price as the Naturnest, and I am very😅 pleased with its performance.

Looks like a great tent for the money, I want to get one for my GX for my trip to Alaska next year and I think this is it!

I just ordered the 1.0 a couple weeks ago and it hasn't shipped out yet. Hopefully I can move up to the 2.0.

I talked with some manufacturers in China. 400-600 +shipping. All of these tents that look the same do so because they are.

You are absolutly right... One thing that gets you is the import tax... so it isn't just shipping + Product.... it is also tax.... they reach out to me all the time asking if I want to "start a tent brand".... obviously I am not going there...

So cool! I custom made a similar rain awning design for my GoFast Camper driver side tent door. I can attest, having a rain covering like that makes it so much nicer to get in/out when it's pouring rain. Being able to take my rain jacket off before climbing inside the tent keeps everything so much drier inside, and if you park nose into the wind, the side awnings don't catch the wind

Being from a liberal run state, how easy/difficult is it to evict squatters from the new 2.0? Also all hardware should be black, no exceptions. Secondly, could you do a similar shoot out video that you did for tents but for roof racks.

Thanks! Just purchased one. Where do you camp out by Jump Creek? The website says it is day use only. Or was the drive to test to see if the tent rattled off the vehicle?

You have to go up above it into the BLM land. There are some really good views up there.
