[QUOTE="texta, post: 402545, member: 192"] had a look at the roof top tents can get the kings ones fairly cheap and bugger all to set them up only thing is how annoying would the ladder in and out of bed be . was thinking of setting up on the tray of the ute on an raised platform so it was just above the drop sides making it not to high but would have to duck down to get into the entry way of the tent (not a big deal but weird ) this would give a very handy storage under the tent base ,also mounted like that the annex that can be purchased for the tent would be useless so a roll out annex off the side of the ute would be used . most of the time infact almost always for the next few years this tent will only be for one night at a time camps no long stays so thats where i thought the roof top would shine over the others its just some where to sleep and thats all the stove and sitting in the shade area would be under the roll out awning .that cheap 4wd place has a combo with the rooftop tent and a 2.5x2.5 m roll out awning ( adventure kings ) for 700 bucks could add one side to the awning for a wind break for a few more bob . anyway i will keep researching today see if i can make up my mind . i realy like the oztent tents and would rather buy quality but for the amount we will use not sure it would be worth it . johno [/QUOTE]
