The BEST TENT in 2021 - all NEW Gazelle T3X Hub Tent!

[@jhbryaniv]

Ok, seriously - that was the best closing I've ever seen. Thanks!

[@OverlandBound]

Hahaha 👊🏼

[@ati573]

Ya, that was funny 😄

[@alexatwagan]

We want to see that again. 🤣

[@Ashoud_Anobetah]

that was way cool ........ i kept looking to see that part!

[@supposedly1-2]

@@alexatwagan lol just hit play again! or rewind! hahaha

[@TrailorSailYT]

But seriously... I want to see everyone that owns one of these to close it like that. If I had one, I would! LOL

[@adventureawaits3646]

awesome tents and great review! But at 57 inches tall when packed it's not easy to stow in a smaller SUV w/o folding one of the rear seats down, which is not an option for me. I wish they'd make a T2, I don't need to stand in it, but love the easy setup and breakdown of these. I just can't fit it in the rear with other gear.

[@A_Qwynide]

How is it in winter with the mesh top? Obviously the rainfly helps keep in heat to some degree, but is this really a 3 season tent? Or can it be used in sub-freezing conditions?

[@cakeshoe]

I’d be very interested in a two-man sized version that packs much shorter for motorcycle camping. The poles would need to be shorter or telescopic, I suppose. On a bike, packability is the key.

[@Michael_Tran]

We just went to the Eastern Sierra with a friend that had this. We were definitely jealous of how quickly he set it up.

[@doctorcXanthophyll]

Several people have asked this, but I haven't seen any answers. Several reviews on Amazon and in other places complaining about bugs being able to get in the tent due to the floor design. It's also mentioned in the comments here. Does the new T3X address this problem? Living in Minnesota I am very concerned about summer camping and the mosquitos.

[@bluepawn]

What a huge package ! I might think it s possible to make it 2x smaller in the future and much more reliable and strong.

[@stoventures1770]

We have an original T3 and it’s awesome. Not sure I’m seeing enough change to get the new one🤔. Very cool tents though.

[@ecrissman]

Thanks for the great reviews on the Gazelle’s! Planning on getting the OB T4 this season.

[@rangerdoc1029]

I wish they made panels to close the mesh roof for winter use.

[@lvwrx]

is that up on Mt Diablo? any news on the sites reopening yet?

[@teejayroar]

Love my tent but they should make the rain fly stick out some more (if possible, I'm no engineer) the rain will fall and drip into the entrance a bit. Not a deal breaker though

[@jamesmazurstudios]

I’m imagining breaking down the tent in heavy rain...15 seconds impressive.

[@AtheistComet80]

Oooo I gotta get mine! OB 23083

[@healer81]

Its a great deal. Well worth the price and value.

[@scottmacdonald1877]

I have had my T4 now for four years. Just bought the overland package with the oversized waterproof bag, footprint and better stakes. Death Valley, Boondooks Nevada, Big Sur, NorCal fishing.... The Gazelle tents are really good tents. For car/overlanding camping. I would buy the T3X but I already have a T4. Maybe in 10 years, when the T4 is toast.....

[@flyguy2021]

Now I’ll have both T3 and T4. Thanks for posting so I knew the T3 was back.

[@francowj]

Now that's how you close the tent, from now on that's how I'm closing the tent!!!!

[@SocialPants]

It’s really the only way 😂😂

[@mrpopo573]

Mine just arrived today, waiting a few years and forgetting about this tent paid off :)

[@ajs7817]

Just got my t4 in a week ago, really solid! Can’t wait to get the kids out and test it!

[@ghostyboi4249]

How’s it going 😃

[@ngoalpo]

Great video! Liked! Could you do a video about Shift Pod Mini VS gazelle for overlanding?

[@OverlandBound]

That's a great suggestion!

[@brucekaiwi3839]

Why is gazelle always out of stock? Have they stopped production due to patent issues?

[@OverlandBound]

Supply chain. Resources. COVID.

[@roccoestello]

Dude you are my favorite camping guy simple and real I love your vids don’t change like these others out here 🤙🏼

[@jordanashworth2747]

Can it fit in a backpack? If so how many liters? How tall of a backpack is needed?

[@OverlandBound]

It will not

[@johnhiggins3943]

Can't wait till I get to use my ob t4 this season, my overland truck needs a lot of work so the work truck and tent will hold me over this season

[@ramon.eshkar]

What a great video and best ending ever 👏 When will international shipping be available? Yes , the community is getting bigger :-)

[@pardefarmeaurx3720]

It's cool, but it looks like a summer tent. Would be better if you could put a woodstove in it for fall and winter camping which are the better times to camp.

[@A_Qwynide]

I had similar thoughts. I'm less concerned about a tent stove, but more concerned about a mesh top not retaining heat very well, even with the rain fly

[@CreekCat1]

When do you expect to have more T3X Hub tents in stock? You're out. Gazelle is out. Seriously, I looked a couple weeks ago and they were in stock. Any idea when they will be restocked? The T4 is too long for my Crosstrek and I don't need one that big. Thanks!

[@larryfisher7056]

I just asked that question of Gazelle a week ago and the answer I got was not an answer.....they have literally nothing in stock. I'm sort of worried about the company.

[@ClubMayview]

Did they increase the size so you can fit 2 cots inside. I have a double and can only sleep 2 cots

[@AtheistComet80]

Aaaand I just ordered mine. Can't wait!

[@rodrigosouza-hh1hq]

Lmao at the end of the video. @Michael - that was some good timing on packing the tent. Hahahahahaha.

[@erikdahl3171]

Finally pulled the trigger on one of these. I do allot of 1 or 2 night trips and I find my trailer with roof top tent not worth the time to set up. Prefer a more minimalist set up for these trips. Don't get me wrong, 3 days or more the trailer and roof top tent are great, but for quick trips or if you are on the move this is a much better option for sure.

[@drested1793]

I just ordered the the T4 version from your site.

[@ltr310]

My question is.. how does this and the t4 do in cold weather? And does this do a good job at keeping in heat from a mr buddy heater?

[@gilbertwalker1233]

I used mine a couple of weeks ago. I used a diesel heater. It was about 20 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Ran the heater on low all night. It didn't get down to freezing in the tent, in the sleeping bag I was more than comfortable. I am working on a way to close off the top to retain the heat. But at the end of the day I got was never cold.

[@ltr310]

@@gilbertwalker1233 Thank you!

[@Rebeccamyst]

I just got the T4 in that color this past week. Snow on the ground in the Rockies, CO right now. So, since I'm a nomadic minimalist, I had room in my apartment basecamp to set it up... carefully so as not to disturb the fan overhead space. It is a great size for me, because I like a tent I can stand up in. I think it's about 78 ". 90 sec set up and take down us accurate. Took me an extra minute because of the fan😎. First think I loved about my Gazelle is the quality. Great. The bag itself is well made and no trouble for me to put the tent back into. Its 30 lbs and will be good exercise for me to lug it to the back of my Explorer: I already have spring fever and can't wait to use it outdoors since I'm stay put this winter.

[@shervinghannadian9651]

do you usually camp solo? im deciding between the 4 and the 3, Im usually solo or with my dog, sometimes another friend. Idk which one to get lol

[@modmike4406]

Bought the tent off your site. I’m a big guy, what sleeping pad or cot do you recommend?

[@beekind466]

We got our hands on a T4 and a T8. Hot tip for Gazelle tents....put the rain fly on before you pop the roof up. Best tents EVERRRRRRRRRR EVER EVER!

[@liesejunh]

I have the t4 overland and I absolutely love it. The only thing about them is that with all the head room it makes the tent horrible in the winds. But for 75% of my travels it’s not an issue with where I am camping.

[@modmike4406]

Just bought one off your site. Do you have the T3X footprint coming soon? I saw it on Gazelles site. If so, hold on to my order until you get them in and shop together. I’m in the North, so no big rush.

[@johnmadill8344]

My T3 is an earlier model, about 2 years old. At 76" long i had to shop carefully for a cot as many are longer than that. Sounds like this new version will take a longer cot. It REALLY is as easy to put up and take down as this video shows. And the materials and construction are first rate. You can tell that as soon as you see the carry bag.

[@florindagonzalez5700]

The way he just dumps the older model. Lol!!!!

[@raptordc5]

Btw @6:02 seems you have a rip below zipper stitching. Factory issue?

[@davidhunter1538]

I went with the 30 second oz tent. It’s longer when in the tube but it’s fabric is tough and it has strong aluminium struts inside. It’s not what I would call spacious inside so I went for the five person model. Very happy with it now.

[@rodrigosouza-hh1hq]

Thought it was a live one. Hehehe. Those are a great tent. We love our T4 😎

[@itzoma]

Grabbed myself one after watching your video. Ready for all these camping festivals!

[@AdventureWithDanan]

Hehehe, like the ending...

[@juanpinto5743]

14 seconds to take it down. Maybe gazelle should advertise that too. Good job Michael 👍

[@crjmoto]

I've had the T4 ~1 yr now and love it. Still on the fence about the removeable floor (velcro's in on all 4 sides, we camp in fire ant territory), but in 1 year few bugs have gotten in

[@bwildjournals]

Gazelle Tents are great!

[@mallkrawlerz620]

Can I fit 2 twin size beds in this?

[@OverlandBound]

No :)

[@brm98]

When you have to get to the trail before everyone else. Breakdown in less than 15sec!

[@515aleon]

Best ending!! I won't be closing one like that for sure. This looks like a fantastic tent. Itching to go on some adventures and have been looking at alll sorts of options as I am not sleeping well in my Subaru outback. Thanks for the review. Subscribed.

[@toddjenest3212]

Too bad Gazelle doesn''t offer military discounts.

[@peacefulsoundsleep3296]

Did he tackle it at the end lol...I may need to add this to my tent collection!

[@richardc6269]

First 4 minutes it's crying time about working.👍gd job.

[@MarkRose1337]

I'm very impressed with the setup and take down time! Though I'd go with the T4 just so I could stand up inside. The T3 does have a more interesting length than a lot of tents I see, but even at 82" I'd probably still end up touching the walls at night to let rain through the fabric :/

[@TheTacticalDAD]

I have a T4 and I am supper happy with it but I just bough the T3X because is a little smaller and now I can bring friends to camp. Thank You for the discount code !

[@dennisstartsev3673]

Hi! Trying to decide between a T4 and a T3X. What's your experience using the T3X vs the T4?

[@motomike007-1]

I got my T4 a few weeks ago. I wanted the overland one but got dooped by Amazon I there wording !!!!! Still a great tent!

[@PumpAir11]

Can it fit two cots?

[@JerryMacHomes]

Tried going online to purchase any of your tents. Seems they are all sold out. Anywhere else I can purchase? Thanks.

[@latenightcereal2390]

90 second set up, 30 second tear down, 45 minute putting it back in the bag, lol

[@OverlandBound]

hahah - surprisingly not - the bag is plenty big!

[@richardburguillos3118]

Thanks for the intro/review. Soooo, what’s the news on the T4 Overland model? Anything new coming there? I’d like to comfortably fit two cots with a bit more room than the T3...

[@cschueren]

Ok. Ordered. Will see when we get it.

[@OverlandBound]

Boom!

[@suemorris3931]

Ok.....I give up. What's with that narrow door? I'd never get through that thing without constantly tripping in that tiny opening on the bottom. .

Im waiting for my 1980 Coleman Space 10 canvas tent to die but it wont.

[@corysmithmusic8697]

Is anyone else super bummed that Gazelle has discontinued the T3X?? They need to bring it back!!

[@judyshorrock7368]

It’s back now on Gazelle tent website.

[@sgoldste02]

OK, having a rapid set-up/tear-down tent is fantastic. But the other option some roof-top tents provide is the ability to leave the mattress and bedding in the tent while driving, saving time having to inflate/deflate an air mattress, having to unroll/roll up the sleeping bag, having to store those items inside the vehicle while driving, and so on. Those are tasks/issues not discussed in these high-speed set-up/tear-down videos. Have you guys found rapid inflate/deflate air mattress solutions? Quick-storage sleeping bags? Those things need to also be discussed if making a fair comparison against a roof-top tent.

[@carnagejlu]

Yet no mention of having to either take the tent off the roof after every trip or drive around doing daily mundane things with a RTT? Not to mention putting it back in for the next trip etc. If you have a designated rig for just adventures sure. A lot of people daily theirs and a RTT isn’t practical.

[@sgoldste02]

@@carnagejlu Fair point. My overlanding rig is basically my recreational vehicle. I don't daily-drive it. My RTT is always installed.

[@rocketman5648]

It's my contention the quicker they go up, the quicker they come down in a storm....

[@plmn93]

That thing packs huge, like an 10+ person tent. And the velcro seams means bugs and water can get in. A neat tent, but not for me.

[@theer2259]

Where is the hinged door? With kids you NEED a hinged door...I won't buy any tent without it!

[@btrouble1]

Do OB members still get a discount? I asked on forum and can't get a response

[@OverlandBound]

Yes, but they are not in stock.

[@mrvang8077]

Ehhh...still look flimsy and cheap materials. I need a thicker material that can withstand windy and rainy condition.

[@Oldgit51]

90 seconds? yeah if you don't bother with guy ropes and tent pegs, so lets be honest and say 5 mins.

[@amarshah3712]

This looks very similar to the Shift pod mini

[@jasonrae3049]

Best ending!

[@82werk72]

Is it possible to buy in Europe?? (Denmark) ???

[@HYHCULT]

I’ve seen a lot of reviews saying that there are gaps in the bottom corners where bugs can get in, do you have this issue?

[@doctorcXanthophyll]

I have seen these comments too, and I hope somebody can give a definitive answer, this is probably my largest concern at this point.

[@jhbryaniv]

Will there be an OB version of this in the future? Asking for the GF.... 😂

[@PyrateRumRunner]

Color is better. Wish we had waited.

[@OverlandBound]

Haha! Not out of the question!

[@hereusethis]

Yeah, mostly interested in the beefed up storage bag (assuming this one doesn't have one) but would appreciate the stakes and footprint(?), too.

[@pinay56]

Can you join the T3 and the T4 together to make an even larger tent, something like having a porta potty in the T3 and the rest of the family in the T4?

[@OverlandBound]

They have a T8 you might like!

[@rogieboy3162]

Just picked one up. Hopefully they're shipping fast. Been waiting on the T3 for a while.

[@kenbell9242]

Would love one of these! Do you know when you’ll be able to ship to the UK?

[@AdventureCrazyA.A.F.A.C]

Okay..A little more info on the water proofing and roominess..I'm looking for a new tent that will fit my cot , and handle extended periods of rain for this years Adventure , a 981 mile Canoe trip...So if it rains for 5 days non stop , Is this tent gonna stay dry inside..Also , what kinds of winds and storms can it handle..I usually use my Alaskan Guide Series 4 man , and its a tight little shelter that will handle sustained winds of 55 mph , and non stop rain for weeks..But its not quick or easy to set up by myself..Last but not least , head room..Can a person sit up on his cot and still have head room in this tent..?..TIA..

[@detodog5951]

I suspect it’s useless in wind- am I correct? Wind happens…

[@thebigempty_5792]

I was wondering what happened to the T3 - I have a T4 and it's just me and the dog.....wondering if the T3 might be a better option.

[@shervinghannadian9651]

is the t4 too big for you and the dog? im deciding between the 3 and 4 usually me and my dog sometimes another friend also

[@ganemis2051]

totally thinking about getting the t4 Plus for this summer.

[@The_Mister]

How does it handle wind? Even if staked out - is it noisy in the wind?

[@OverlandBound]

Very well when staked. Not too windy.

[@jose_jl_ochoa2072]

How warm are they during the winter?

[@SolarPowerMyRV]

Ain’t nobody got time for that hahahahahahahaha

[@briand3837]

Does it come with a pole repair kit? How hard would it be to repair/replace a pole or hub?

[@OverlandBound]

It does not, and that's a good question. I am hard on gear, and I have never had an issue with the metal poles/hubs.

[@DHandyFamily]

You say your store has them in stock but they are not even listed for sale?

[@TALKCalgary]

90 seconds to put up, 30 seconds to take down, 45 minutes to get it back in the bag.

[@OverlandBound]

Nope. That’s a pet peeve of mine too. Gazelle is goo on that front.

[@404Not_Found]

Great video! Unfortunately the T3 collapsed size grew. Bummer for us 2dr wrangler guys that have a 55" wide tub. Is the bag waterproof?

[@OverlandBound]

Resistant, but not waterproof.

[@404Not_Found]

​@@OverlandBound Thanks for the info.

[@markuffindell]

can you pitch the tent without the floor (for example on rocky ground)?

[@OverlandBound]

You could, yes.

[@therealtashiro]

Love your videos Michael!

[@jimmyjimmy951]

Most people have the time to set up. Kind of part of the gig.. Real issue is take town time which nobody likes. Back to set up which has to included total set including pegs, fly and bedding e.c.t.. Now that’s what the clock should be on. If it’s just set up then the Oztent RV.s are a quicker set up if you are car camping.. I like these in any case if you don’t mind a lighter less robust option..👍🇦🇺

[@walterbuckhannon3947]

No disrespect meant. But I'll stay with my tee pee tent taller and wider at the bottom. You can fit 2 queen size air mattresses in it. No rain fly at cost was 54 buck's. I can buy all my other camping with the 200 dollars I saved. If you want a tent you can stand up in. I recomend giving the tee pee tent a look over. Stay safe out there folk's!
