22,000 km in 3 weeks, tested up to 152mph... This might be the ultimate endurance test of any Roof-Top Tent, and roof rack system. The video covers a real-time opening and setup of the tent, and my personal thoughts and hints on the setup.
It's a Thule Tepui Low-Pro 3 tent, mounted on Thule Wingbar Evo bars, on top of a 400 horsepower Volkswagen GTI used in the Rallywagen 2 challenge - pan-South America. Over 13,000 miles, thousands on miles on gravel, from sea level to over 15,500 feet, and with a maximum speed of 152mph.
The car was built in partnership with ECS Tuning and H&R Suspension, and was tested in a non-stop drive from Ohio to Las Vegas in November 2019 for the SEMA Show. During the first drive, we drove through snow in Illinois, cross the Loveland Pass in Colorado, and stopped only for fuel.
The car was then shipped immediately after SEMA to Cartagena, Colombia from where we drove it to Ushuaia, Argentina. But we took the long route via Bolivia - crossing the Andes), Paraguay, Sao Paulo, Brazil, and then headed west again to the Argentine Route 40. And then all the way back to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
