I was really hoping to see you fold it back up. I just bought one of these, its sitting waiting to be installed. I have a CVT hybrid, Its a great tent and setting up is pretty easy, but the close up is pretty tedious which is why I went this route. The CVT was on a trailer before the gladiator, so it wasn't too bad there, but for being able to explore during camp on the gladiator made it tough to be able to move around. I think this set up looks really easy.
I actually have that footage if you are interested. Very simple and just as quick as setting up. You can message me on Instagram (same name) and happy to send it!
Hi, Thanks for the review. I set my tent up today in the wind and could not figure out if the noisy rain fly can be removed? If not, have you tried rolling it up and tucking it back somehow and if so can you tell me how you did that. :)
I actually sold the whole truck/rack/tent about six months after installing. I’ll be honest in saying I prefer the nature nest hard shell tent on Amazon. We just got back from a 3800 mile, ten day trip and it was amazing. You can find my Instagram pics @the_northman_adventures !!
@@thenorthmanadventures5224 can’t wait to see it. Gas or diesel? Rubicon or Mojave? Now I want to halt buying stuff until I see what you will get after all that experience
Did yours come with the inside support bar mount or did it have a strap originally? Ours only has a strap on one side then the pole connection on the other
appreciate the straight forward video. good review
Cheers!
Looks great!
Great looking setup!
Thank you!
Excellent video! Enjoy-

Now we will be waiting for your next video camping out in the wilderness!!
Very soon! And thank you for watching and subscribing!

I always have mine “up” using the provided rain fly rods. I’ve not tried leaving it down.
Can you store bedding in this tent, no manufacturers say if you can or not, but I know alot of people do they just dont say which tents haha.
So where’s the part where you mount the tent on your rack? Did the tent comes with mounting kit or what did you use?
There are rails attached under the tent that you use to attach to a roof rack or in this case a bed rack. It comes with the mounting hardware.
You get your awning yet?
Not yet !
Nice build!! what is your suspension set up? it looks leveled even after put RTT on.
3” Skyjacker lift. Fox shocks. Yep, level :)
After a year, do you still recommend it?

I will go follow. Thanks for the reply. I am intrigued to know why sold the gladiator
I sold because I have the attention span of a gnat :). I’ve already bought another Gladiator and will be building it as well ;)

Great video! I was wondering it the mattress is comfortable?
It is not. You will want to get a pad or self inflating air pad.
Did yours come with the inside support bar mount or did it have a strap originally? Ours only has a strap on one side then the pole connection on the other
Mine came with the bar mount 👍
Does it flap in the wind?
No sir.
What size tires you got on there?
40x13.50x17s
Music of choice terrible
Thank you !
