    AdventureTruck.com is working on a NEW custom rooftop platform rack for the Honda Element to carry tents, gear, etc. This prototype includes: aluminum wind fairing, 8 steel cross bars, 2 steel side panels and 8 contact points for your Element. No drilling required. This rack will support any rooftop tent currently on the market, and weighs appox 63 lbs.
    So we've designed it, now it's time to test it. Watch as we drive from Bend OR to Chelan WA, carrying a Freespirit M49 Adventure Series rooftop tent. And once we get to Chelan, see how the tent looks deployed on the roof of a Honda Element.
    Sign-ups for this Element Rack are on our website: AdventureTruck.com
    The prototype in this video has been tested for 3 months. Next, we're producing and testing our final design on 3 different Elements ranging in year. As soon as everyone is satisfied with the performance, we'll begin selling to the public! Final pricing isn't in stone, but we'll keep it as low as we can. Oh, and it's really easy to install:)

    Nice! Your rack + RTT = affordable alternative to ECamper (Ursa won't ship for self/pro install) for east coast residents. Subscribed.

    Very nice, however I love the tent top units with the sunroof hatch to enter and exit the tent from inside the truck. avoids the need for a ladder and you can stand in the hole to get dressed.

    The all black look is super clean. What time are those?
    I read some where that the weight capacity of the roof was really low, how did you manage to work around that?

    • @AdventureTruck
      @AdventureTruck  5 лет назад +4

      We have 2 front and 2 rear foot pads, in addition to the 4 factory drilled mounting points. Then we run 6-8 crossbars which helps w the strength and weight displacement. And then the low profile is also helpful with keeping the factory mounting points secure.

    Did you paint the OEM wheels black or are those aftermarket? I love em!

    • @AdventureTruck
      @AdventureTruck  5 лет назад

      Those are black wheel rims by TOPI, which I believe is a Honda OEM supplier. I got the whole set-up at a Honda Dealership.

    Or you could just fold the back seats of the element up to the side in about 5 seconds and sleep inside the vehicle.

    • @igorg003
      @igorg003 2 года назад

      My thoughts exactly..rack alone is little over a grand! Tent probably several hundred. ARB awning with a attactable tent is Much cheaper and practical I think. Ratber sleep inside the car and have stuff up top in cargo box.
