Roofnest Condor XL Installation - It was Heavy!

[@gstev1]

I love you guys and the way you solved the problem of getting up on the rack. Keep us posted on your trips.

[@MarcusDPorter]

Thanks so much! We’ll be pushing out more video content about our adventures! We was tuff but we got it done! Whew!! 🔥

[@seizethecarp_]

Just bought one of these are we are almost excited as you guys were! Thanks for the video.

[@MarcusDPorter]

You’re going to love it and it’s always a great ice breaker when roaming around town! A lot of people don’t know what it is sitting on the top of our roofs lol 😂 Let me know how you like it!

[@ValkyrieHikes]

I absolutely love the teamwork between you and your wife! You guys are adorable. You guys seem like you’d be a blast to go camping with! Now that you’ve had the rooftop tent for a while, how do you like it?

[@MarcusDPorter]

Awwww thanks so so much!!! 🤗❤️🙌🏾 We love to have fun and love the outdoors! Looking to do it more and hopefully meet some campers along the way! We’ve slept in it a few times and we both sleep like newborn babies! 🔥🤗 Easy to setup and breakdown and super convenient having a mattress already inside the rooftop tent! Has plenty of room and it just added a whole new level to outdoor adventures! I’m ready to take some more trips and just explore! I see you’ve been doing some hiking! Do you camp or hike often? Talk soon!

One year update? How is it holding up?

[@MarcusDPorter]

Still holding up good1 I have noticed it peeling on the top of the rooftop tent. It's like it's bubbling or something. I'm not sure if its the paint or clear weather coating coming off or if I just forgot to take the plastic off. not sure. I just noticed it when I stand on the balcony. Another issue i've seen it a little rust on the rim of the tent. There is like some type of rubber protector around the rim of the tent and a piece is chip or missing and start to see a little rust. Lastly there was a small hole in the sky roof and I'm really careful about my stuff and just don't know how a little hole got there in the window screen! But other than that, it still works and still sleeps good still rides on the truck good. No other problems major!

Do you know if there is an insulation kit that goes with the Nest Condor xl?

[@MarcusDPorter]

It’s not an insulation kit that I know of but it holds up well especially with that hard backing shell! It will get cold and hot in the tent but you can get a portable heater or ac unit and put in the tent or run a hose to the tent to keep you cool or warm when you sleep! You also have heating blankets and sleeping bags which I have to keep me warm in cooler months!

[@ladyinafjsuzyq7417]

@MarcusDPorter would you mind sending me links to items that you purchased for your rooftop tent please, much appreciated .
