    wow. I was leaning towards the motop, but after seeing the upgrades you are working on, I'm firmly in the wildlands court. Well done Drifta on the excellent mods and specifically explaining how to put your tent on a rhino rack platform. Point of difference. Now I can't wait to get one. And its a Yes vote from me for including the roof racks. I just need to be able to take them off in case the setup is too high to get into my apartment's garage!

    I have the ocam electric rtt and they have a terrible mattress. It had a similar hard piece/ soft piece as the one you were showing in the vid. I ended up cutting my kings swag mattress to size and replacing the soft piece. Thank God it fit into the mattress cover. Ita now comfortable and I can sleep in it but this tent looks way better because of the mattress, size, roof racks and so much more. I can see that youve put real thought into this.
    I'll be selling mine soon and getting one of these but with the more comfortable mattress.

    @4x4touring47 4 года назад +1

    Been watching these closely since they were announced. Ticks a lot of boxes for low weight, low profile, and not crazy expensive like some rtt's. The new mattress looks the goods! My concern would be how much space do you have for a sleeping bag to be left in there. I use a thick oztrail cotton canvas mega which are pretty thick. Maybe worth working out the ideal bedding to use with the new style mattress . . . . .
    Looking to get one when I have the $$$ 👍👌

  • @WorkshoptoWilderness

    Hey guys, I've just bought one of your tents and I want to move the aluminium extrusion rail further out to fit my rails. Is it possible to disconnect and lift away the inner material under the matrests so I can drill new holes? I've had a good look at it and it looks like the material is riveted into a retainer in the side of the aluminium frame and cannot be disconnected.
    I could try drilling from the underneath but it wouldn't work so well because the box section rails are closed so ideally a larger hole on the top side would be good but this requires removal of material.
    Any help would be massively appreciate as tomorrow I will probably start on this some how.

    I now snow is something folks in AU do not need to worry about much. But taking into account that those kinds of "florless" tents are also avilable in places where heavy snowfall is a possibility. Am I wrong in thinking that this design would be very problematinc during snow fall ? After a night with falling snow this tent would be impossible to close without some heavy cleaning and maintenace. Unlike tents that have fixed floors and the tent material is wrapped around the shell completly.

    @regkershaw 2 года назад +2

    I do like this tent the only thing I think will happen is in time whatever you have on top of the floor weather it's just the mattress or the ply it will eventually wear through the material.
    It should have a hard floor.
    And also not having a hard floor might make it lighter but it hasn't reduced the cost it's up there still with the others.
