Great insight mate, thanks for your time to review and share your thoughts. Just retired my Kings Big Daddy Deluxe to my nephew as my middle aged frame needs a new frame. Loved my RV5 set up from 10 years ago so this in a swag option is a no brainer. I'll keep my eyes peeled for a Black Friday / Cyber Monday deal come late November as $1K is a little too steep for a swag for my liking
They're a great tent but one has to be aware it may not fit in the tub of a dual cab ute so double check before buying . Is that the hole down near the old white bridge on the road to turondale ? Looks vaguely familiar!
I just went and had a look at the rv3 tent but the rs2 swag looks awesome because of the pack up size but hasn't got side windows and you can't stand in it....looking at the first 30secs of this video your clearly well clear of not hitting your head sitting under it but I'm thinking it won't attach to a awning off my car now will it because it only stands 1.4 high or something correct ?and If I can get this rv3 for $800 that's a bargain in my eyes I'll just have to buy a selfminflating double matress etc please tell me the height of the awning from the ground up ?
Just wondering what the actual minimum packed size is? The web info says 1.97m, but the box it comes in the shop is shorter, maybe 1.7m….. What am I missing here?
Like all canvas tents if its all closed up the condensation will be there, opening the windows definitely helps. Stock mattress is not bad and how I use it most of the time when travelling solo. The other half likes her comfort and we take the Oztent stratus self inflating mattress to use on top of the standard mattress with is super comfy.
@@wewentthatawayadventures beautiful thanks mate, not much real world info on these bad boys online. Looking forward for my first trip. Do you open the whole thing up or just a few window half cracked etc ?? Going to be 0 degrees on my trip at night. Never been in that kinda weather before, let alone camping. Got my oztent rivergum xl, wish me luck
There are a couple of small vent windows above the door that can be left open even in the rain if you have the awning out. I tend to unzip the large window as well and peg the flap out to increase airflow without allowing a lot of breeze in of course if the weather is warmer I just open the whole thing up

How’s the condensation and how’s the stock mattress
