A ROOFTOP TENT On My Jeep Gladiator!?

  • This is an upgrade i've been very excited about... A rooftop tent from Roam Adventure Co!!
    Most of you know, i am not the Overlanding type of guy. However, i have always found rooftop tents pretty cool!
    Cassie and I decided that adding a Rooftop tent to our Jeep Gladiator would be a great idea to see what the hype is about, and possibly start working our way into "Overlanding adventures". More on that topic and our plans later...
    In this video, we are installing the Roam Vagabond tent. You can check out the specs in the link below:
    www.roamadventureco.com/colle...
    I mounted this tent to my home made rack system over my DiamondBack bed cover
    We decided on this tent for a few reasons. We wanted something that had great quality, however we didnt want to spend $3,000 on a tent without knowing if it would be something we would use very often. I didnt want to cheap out and get a low quality tent, knowing that it could be something that we will enjoy and later have regrets of getting a budget tent.
    I also wanted to find a tent that was big enough for the family, while still being lightweight and small enough to fit over the the Jeep Gladiator bed.
    This tent weighs in at 130lbs, and feels incredibly large inside for being a standard sized tent.
    Roam also offers the Vagabond XL, and the Lite, depending on your needs.
    While i am not too well versed on RTTs, i did alot of research and found this tent to be one of the best "bang for your buck", it has alot of useful features, and seems to be made with very high quality.
    We are planning some trips soon, that way we can test it out and make some further review videos for you guys. We are also going to take a realistic approach on how to get into "Overlanding" and our journey along the way.
    There are 1000s of "Overlanding experts" out there, but i want to show you guys a realistic way to get into it, without saying "You need this", because honestly everyone's needs are different, and sometimes its best to learn along the way.
    I hope you enjoyed the video, and i am looking forward to showing you all what we have in store!
    I would appreciate any tips and tricks for RTTs that you have learned along the way.
    So far, this is the first thing i have purchased in relation to the tent; amzn.to/2HIt0IY
    congrats to the winner of the Olight Flashlight giveaway, more info can be found here; olightworld.com/led-flashligh...

    Excellent Video - thanks for starting from opening the box on the ground to fully installed
    and deployed - very helpful to see you both going through the uplift process to your rack ( we will all have to do this !) Thanks for taking the time to show the detail quality up close and your initial likes - also good to see you have it fully deplored with rain fly and all windows open ( to get an idea of light level available inside the tent ) and lastly , having all four of
    you up there and inside together really gives you perspective on the interior space - tent looks Good ! Great Video -Thanks !👍🏼

    I have a RTT mounted on a removable bed rack on my ZR2 Colorado. Lifts on/off with manual garage hoist. Mine has a full annex that covers the stairs too, good for changing clothes / showers. No regrets. Nice to be able to remove the RTT if not needed (unwanted weight).

    Just because you have a roof top tent, doesn’t make you an overlander. That is so true. We have logged over 16,000 miles of Overland trails in our 2016 JK and Offroad trailer. Completed the coast to coast TransAmerica Trail, Continental Divide Trail (Mexico to Canada) and TransWisconsin Trail. We are still learning the ins and outs but are getting more comfortable after each trip.

    So so so funny when you put it on, made my day. Nice family, you will have a lot of fun, different then rock crawling, the feeling of going and saying hey its nice here let's setup is very nice, Im sure you will enjoy. Protecting your rig is #1 priority when you go far. I've experience places impossible to reach any other way with that level of confort. Enjoy
