I bought this tent a few days ago from 4wheelparts they had Black Friday pricing at $720 which seemed reasonable for a tent like this. Honestly after watching your video pushed me to pull the trigger. Awesome video - I’ll be pulling it up again at install
Sick setup, Zack! If you do end up keeping it up there, and get off-road a bit, adding some.bed stiffeners isn't a bad idea for these little composite Tacoma beds. 👊
If didn't spray entire tent & cover with waterproofing spray, PLEASE, do along with a protective ceramic coating, as can help protect from weather & makes it easy to clean. Pretty cool looking. Cheers, A
I’d recommend getting a 2inch memory foam mattress topper in full size It makes that mattress way more comfortable especially if you sleep on your side
Finally a nice detailed install on the roof top tent install and inside view of the smittybuilt thanks 👍 those are the brackets I was looking to get too just clean and simple nothing too crazy overland
This may sound weird but can you show us your workout routine? Since this channel is more personal than the main one it's cool to see you doing all types of fun things. Also motorcycle mods? Or maybe just a ride vlog?
That’s awesome, I’ve been thinking of putting a tent on my tundra for years, but then you have to take those bars off the bed every time you move furniture
This is a very sweet mod for those who love camping. The only bad part is you're reducing the already bad MPG anywhere from 2-5mpg. Although that's probably not your biggest concern if you have a Toyota Tacoma.
Same tent gang🤘, also you should put the poles just through the rain fly and not the door when you have the rain fly up and roll up the door or zip it shut👍
Hey Zack, question. Can the tent be setup to open towards the back of the truck rather than to the side? I think it means bottom to holders rails rotate 90 deg. Thanks
You would love Australia, The 4wd and camping scene is huge here, every second vehicle houses a rooftop tent. I prefer just throwing a swag in the back of the wagon because id probably crush my roof getting in to a roof top lol
It’s so easy looking at your videos.but when I try its terribly difficult.but still great video.i guess it’s better to sleep in the truck rather than in the camp
That would also be an ideal setup for camp with your car style music festivals, cause no need to set up your tent on the ground, just pop it up and as an added perk, you're well above the crowd so your tent is always easy to find, just gotta close up the ladder when you're not there and ideally some locking bins underneath the tent for food and other valuables.
Great video! I'm picking up the same bed bars. Did you guys mount the bed bars the wrong way? It looks like they should have been installed the other way around to give you the ability to mount the gear plates.
At 3:24 Ah two people and a kid something like that 😂😂😂 Jerry you make the best videos I like your calm voice when you tea phone durability I could fall a sleep with that voice next to me the bed I subscribed for you!!!
my parrents had a thing like this back in the 60's on there vw bug it was called a camp hotel and it was awsome it had a bathroom and kitchen that you could set up.
The two rods for the window fly behind the cab did you figure out how to use both? Mine is close and I can only use 1, thinking of sliding tent back some more
It looks like those mounting flanges, on the rack bars, are messed up... one side "inward" and the opposite side "outward"...? Were they supposed to be that way?
Hi, I noticed one of the stakes wasn’t installed due to the fact it’ll hit the truck. Have you figured out a way to remedy the issue? I ran into the same problem when I opened up my tent recently
It is fun if you still haven't gone out... got me the xl up top my jk... it's a blast, have fun brother... oh yeah, watch out for wind, you won't sleep... lol...
Great video! Been debating on the smitty built RT tent. For the money everyone says they are worth it. And I’m all about cheap! Enjoyed the video! Will save it for when mine comes in and I need help putting it together!
Thanks for the great information. The Ebay link to the metal racks holding up the tent seems to be broken. Can you redirect us to the metal racks that lift the tent off the bed? Thanks
can you tell me the brand of the rack? the link you have for ebay are not the same rack it looks like. or do you know were i could get the same bars as you have? thanks
I don't think I would wanna have a tent mounted to my truck full-time. Mike at Last Line of Defense has a pretty cool set-up where he can take the tent off for daily use and keep the bed functional. I'm also considering just getting a tent that fits over and straps onto the bed when the tailgate is open. I'm only 5'7" so it would be plenty of room. I may get a rooftop tent someday, but I'm gonna have to drive my truck a little while longer and figure out what I like/dislike. Plus they're a ton of money.
I know this is an older video but, do you think you could have mounted your RTT to where it opens to the rear? I ask because I MTB and carry two bikes on my bed.
This was great. I did notice what is probably a manufacturer DEFECT on the support bars... you mentioned the little triangle things on the bars that go from the bed to the tent could be used to sturdy up the whole thing, but I noticed on the right or passenger side they face each other while on the left driver side they face out. I don't know what they are for exactly but the asymmetry bothered me, especially since whatever the function it won't work the same on both sides. Also I'm picky and like a symmetrical aesthetic. Thanks for the video.

Badass owner with a badass truck with some really badass modifications.
Jasdil I like you.
JerryRigEverything You just made my day Zack.
Jasdil Indeed See, and on top of the Smart sexy brain he has....he is GORGEOUS!! 💕💕💕😭😭😭 I bet he has a Top Model kind of wife.
Don't forget badass tunes.
JerryRigEverything what is that music
Can you do this to my Tesla?
*grabs drill*
Lets get started.
ZacksJerryRig Apple might be making a car in 2022 , so will you do a bend test?
@@gdevansh will that car have windows
@@ushnakhan7194 it will have no engine cuz why use engines u can push it right ? (Same as headphone jack)
@@AliYassinToma you are trolling iphone like zack
wow first time I have seen agent 47 this excited
Two people and two dogs but not sure i could get the wife to go for something like this. Very nice setup!!
Zach you made the right choice to buy a Toyota Tacoma😀
That's a sweet setup man! Be a great little adventure truck!
Doesn’t the Tacoma have a composite bed? I think it needs to be reinforced with bed stiffeners. I’m not sure though.
I'm more of a Dodge guy, but this Tacoma looks KILLER and fun to drive
Such a rad tent! We need to plan a camping trip soon!
I bought this tent a few days ago from 4wheelparts they had Black Friday pricing at $720 which seemed reasonable for a tent like this. Honestly after watching your video pushed me to pull the trigger. Awesome video - I’ll be pulling it up again at install
A lifted Tacoma is actually one of the sexiest vehicles I have ever seen. It’s like a raptor just not as fat.
Sick setup, Zack! If you do end up keeping it up there, and get off-road a bit, adding some.bed stiffeners isn't a bad idea for these little composite Tacoma beds. 👊

Hi, you have a link to the video?
I watch u he copped u
@@braydencash9764 Mike knows what's up. I'd copy him too haha
That Tacoma is turning up really well.
If didn't spray entire tent & cover with waterproofing spray, PLEASE, do along with a protective ceramic coating, as can help protect from weather & makes it easy to clean. Pretty cool looking.
Cheers, A
How are those mounting bars holding up?
Any complaints?
I saw one installed on a 2018 Tacoma in a showroom last year. Looked great.
That looks super cozy
Awesome Truck From Tacoma
Would love to have that tacoma+tent combo and travel through the country.
The music and editing of this video were pretty damn good man.
Congrats, I wish I was I had expensive toys like this.
I love your enthusiasm
Thanks for showing the inside of the tent! Helps a lot when making a decision!
I’d recommend getting a 2inch memory foam mattress topper in full size It makes that mattress way more comfortable especially if you sleep on your side
Finally a nice detailed install on the roof top tent install and inside view of the smittybuilt thanks 👍 those are the brackets I was looking to get too just clean and simple nothing too crazy overland
I like the color choice of your Tacoma
You can feel Zacks excitement in his voice in the beginning 😂😂😂
true i noticed it too
Two and a kid? Considering trading in the RV...
Your videos are always a pleasure to watch
Thank you!
Daaang I love both those trucks. I'm looking to grab a trd off road this summer. Hopefully I can find one like yours.
This may sound weird but can you show us your workout routine? Since this channel is more personal than the main one it's cool to see you doing all types of fun things. Also motorcycle mods? Or maybe just a ride vlog?
Zacks excitement can’t be stopped! 🙂
I dont even camp and i want to do this to my tundra looks like a badass option whenever going fishing
Love that I stumbled on this as I was researching tents.
Let’s camp this summer! (Guy from SLC ward with taco!)
That’s awesome, I’ve been thinking of putting a tent on my tundra for years, but then you have to take those bars off the bed every time you move furniture
Awesome addition
Wow awesome upgrade Jerry. Keep up the hard work and great videos.
Thanks.

Perfect racks for my needs! Thank you for making this video!
Hey Zack, question. Can the tent be setup to open towards the back of the truck rather than to the side? I think it means bottom to holders rails rotate 90 deg. Thanks
You can fit 2 more people at the bed of the truck just put some comforter, really cool mod this is why I love pickup trucks
You would love Australia, The 4wd and camping scene is huge here, every second vehicle houses a rooftop tent. I prefer just throwing a swag in the back of the wagon because id probably crush my roof getting in to a roof top lol

Zack's going crazy with intro

This guy is seriously a badass .do more car videos in this channel pls
hey man, the link you used for the bed rack doesn't work anymore, do you have an updated one or know where I could find these?
Check the reply I left above!
u and cambry will enjoy this
At 3:24 Ah two people and a kid something like that 😂😂😂 Jerry you make the best videos I like your calm voice when you tea phone durability I could fall a sleep with that voice next to me the bed I subscribed for you!!!
Will anything fly off at highway speeds? Say, 80 mph
Great video bro..... that’s a sweet Tacoma.....great tent set up !
Hi there zack new subscriber love Tacomas I miss mine your truck is beast i have a 2019 4runner
my parrents had a thing like this back in the 60's on there vw bug it was called a camp hotel and it was awsome it had a bathroom and kitchen that you could set up.
Awesome video dude, this is so cool!
Agent 47 strikes again 🔥
I like my truck-bed-tent, works well and stows easily under the tonneau cover while driving.
Nice job guys...I'm motivated to give it a try!
That drift was crazy, it takes some guts to perform one, with precision.
Man you are awesome!
JerryDoEverything
LOL
*ZackDoEverything
LOL
That’s awesome. thinking of doing the
Same on my Tacoma
Keep it up
Love your videos! I have a 2018 TRD SPORT 4x4 Long Bed Double Cab
That shirt is a classic
You have created a monster.....
How do you protect cargo in your truck bed if it's raining?
What an awesome job. Great and very informative video. Thanks!
The two rods for the window fly behind the cab did you figure out how to use both? Mine is close and I can only use 1, thinking of sliding tent back some more
Thanks for this video. How is the tent holding up ?
Love the color of your truck. Have fun with the rtt.
Draper flight park! I was just camping up there!
Caught a wild braxen in the video. Hiiiii brax!!!
Hey great rig! I would recommend the tepui tent with an onning
Your Truck is Awesome
Thank you!
ZacksJerryRig what is the intro music please
Looks good!
Was your model of tent the standard (2783) or XL (2883)?
It looks like those mounting flanges, on the rack bars, are messed up... one side "inward" and the opposite side "outward"...? Were they supposed to be that way?
Hi, I noticed one of the stakes wasn’t installed due to the fact it’ll hit the truck. Have you figured out a way to remedy the issue? I ran into the same problem when I opened up my tent recently
SOOOOO WANT ALL OF THIS!!
Did you purchase the tall bed bars or mid-height bed bars?
It is fun if you still haven't gone out... got me the xl up top my jk... it's a blast, have fun brother... oh yeah, watch out for wind, you won't sleep... lol...
Great video, I’ll prob go with this rtt now after watching. Also, truck looks great with whatever lift/tires you’ve for on it
Ponyiac aztek:Am i a joke for you?
Great video! Been debating on the smitty built RT tent. For the money everyone says they are worth it. And I’m all about cheap! Enjoyed the video! Will save it for when mine comes in and I need help putting it together!
What kind of wheels did you put on the Tacoma? They look great.
Thanks for the great information. The Ebay link to the metal racks holding up the tent seems to be broken. Can you redirect us to the metal racks that lift the tent off the bed? Thanks
Do you know where to get some more of those bed racks? The link is working anymore. Having trouble finding a similar setup.
It wouldn't be a bad idea to spray the tent support bars with an anti rust black paint either! I know a lot of them will rust out fairly fast.
can you tell me the brand of the rack? the link you have for ebay are not the same rack it looks like. or do you know were i could get the same bars as you have? thanks
Nice! What lift do you have and what tire size do you have?
The question is, how many Zachs can you fit in it?
Made me wanna buy a truck too.
That American chopper shirt tho :D
Batagnam OCC! :D
acdc22man yeah I knew it wasn't the logo of american chopper shop but I remembered it from the show and, of course... From the meme :D
You know everything,litterly
Do you still have the old truck? Or did you sell it , how much could you get for the old one
I don't think I would wanna have a tent mounted to my truck full-time. Mike at Last Line of Defense has a pretty cool set-up where he can take the tent off for daily use and keep the bed functional.

roof tents are neat
I’d recommend getting a set of bed stiffer because of the rack geometry
That drift looked kinda dangerous !
I have one mounted on a ford ranger and it is awesome!
This was great. I did notice what is probably a manufacturer DEFECT on the support bars... you mentioned the little triangle things on the bars that go from the bed to the tent could be used to sturdy up the whole thing, but I noticed on the right or passenger side they face each other while on the left driver side they face out.

probably made differently to accommodate different items
