Hope you guys find this video useful! Installing an RTT is a big decision so we definitely don't want to rush into it.
Let me know what you think. I welcome and value all comments and feedbacks - whether you agree or disagree with anything I said! ❤
Watch a video of me using this RTT for the very first time! th-cam.com/video/jONelVtOErI/w-d-xo.html
After experiencing a flood in my tent after my tarp got blown out and sleeping in the wet for the night, getting the roof top tent is the best investment i've ever done.
Oh man...must be awful! A golden experience nonetheless. Glad to know you have found the right tent for you!
Clear explanation Jun. Detail to the specs, useful info for campers. Thanks.
Good info Jun! And that's a nice edit too, smooth. Happy CNY!
Happy CNY to you too! Thanks for watching! Cheers :)

Happy CNY to you Jun, love your videos. We have a rooftop tent too (iKamper) and it has been the best investment. We are literally packed up (or down) in less than 15 mins.
Thank you for watching, and also for the CNY wish! Wow you have the iKamper... top range. Camping must have been awesome ever since! :)
Nice tips.
Thanks for watching!
Very good video, keep it up !

By the way i am not a camper but love to hear and see camping videos. Who knows one day one's can always be a camper itself as times to change one minds. This video is a good tuition for all of us. As we all now know what is like to have a good campers Tent. Thank you Jun for your update information.
Glad you found the video useful! Thanks for watching. Cheers :)
Excellent explanation of what to expect when getting an RTT. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching :)
Best aarrr
Lama tak solo camping
I also own soft shell roof top tent from Thule for about 1 year time, totally agree with you. there are always pros and cons of it, but as long as I continue camping, roof top tent still the best choice for me instead of ground tent
You are right! There is no single perfect way to camp, it's all up to personal preference! I'm also using the RTT more often than the ground tent now - so much more convenient and comfortable :)
Brilliant presentation... TQ ❤ just thinking of getting one... Say safe ❤
That's great! Have fun on your new RTT journey! :)
thanks for sharing the cons. practical points. a tailgate tent could be a fair compromise between a ground tent and rtt for easier quick setup and unpacking. but it means sleeping inside the car cabin space instead of outside it and having a smaller sleeping space
Thanks for your input. I do agree with you - much easier but also less space. Up to individual's preference :)
hi there, tks for the sharing, it is really very informative with the pros n cons, tks for it. i don't have RTT because of the cost. currently using those grounded tent, fyi, in order to kept those pest away, i pour a bottle of vinegar at all the boundary of the tent, that smell kept away those ants, cats and dogs and those pest too. for safety reason, i put a PIR motion sensor light and PIR motion sensor alarm at the entrance of each side of tent, when triggered, the lights will automatically light up and the alarm will trigger too (may be i am too over cautious about the security)
Hi there, thanks for watching my video! Appreciate your interesting suggestions. The vinegar sounds promising although it may be smelly not just to the pest but also ourselves lol! Thanks for suggesting the motion sensor light and alarm too - the light is definitely worth considering, however I believe the alarm may be abit of an overkill. A false alarm may be triggered whenever there are strong winds, or when a harmless little frog is hopping and playing near the tent :)
good sharing June..actually i got one same as yours and its ok lah..if all are easy doing..means no more thrills..apa pun thanks and hope to meet you during camping one fine day...👌👍
Wise words you got there - If everything is easy, there won't be any thrill! I agree. Happy camping! :)
Great information love your voice and seeing your pretty face.
Thank you :)

Always good to sleep elevated above ground to avoid insect/animals like wild boars, termites, snakes etc. Car roof top tents look perfect for this purpose although bulky and its weight increases petrol consumption. You guys are lucky. We seldom see such car roof top tents in Sg cuz there are no car camping sites in Sg!
You're absolutely right. Many advantages of sleeping above. Come over to Malaysia for car camping! :)
@@JunOutdoors super tempted! Love the Zen forest Karak car camping ground featured in your videos!
Pantai koningam... Tempat Saya and family selalu camping...
Yes betul!
😍
Considering. But the steep price is a deterrent. If I'm an outdoor content creator and can camp up to 10 times in a few months, I think it'd definitely be worth it.
Ni camping 2/3 kali setahun, bawak family. Tak kot. 😂
Fuel consumption would be a big issue for me. Sending kids to school, then to work and them picking up from school, I easily do 60-70km per day. It would be noticeable.
Ahh yes, if it was to be installed on your daily car, may not be a good idea, and may even be borderline annoying. lol
Love your videos.
Im looking to get this tent.
Is the roof prone to water ponding in heavy rain?
Any problems with the fabric getting saturated that moisture seeps through to the inside ?
Thanks for advice.
PaulineLandy
Hi Pauline, to answer your question about water ponding, as long as the vestibule at the tent entrance is kept taut by trying the edges down with ropes, there will be no water ponding even in heavy rains.
The fabric is ripstop fabric which is quite thick. 8 months using this soft shell tent, with over 20 usages, I had no problem with water seeping through the fabric.
I have to warn you though, it's quite a pain to pack down this soft shell tent. Lots of fabric to tuck in. Lots of hopping here and there to adjust, before zipping it up.
😘
one more thing is that we cant keep hiding the ladder.. if anything happen or bad people..
or if pokok tumbang so yg atas kena dulu.. dr yg bawah..
Betul jugak. Thanks for your input! :)
Mcm pantai port dickson, belakang UPM
Betul!
The mosquito netting is it work ? Some small mosquito still can get inside tent..?
The mosquito nets are perfect. No bugs or mosquitoes in the tent as long as they are all zipped up :)
Jun sweet Jun.....future upgrade - campervan?
Well, for now, the next best upgrade in my situation would be a 4x4 camper. I've been flirting with the idea of a campervan but I think I'll move on to that in my 40s or 50s maybe :)
Hi Jun, can u pls share the location?
It's in Pantai Koningam, Port Dickson
Comel la u
how do you wash your car?
at a carwash, like usual. there's no problem reaching the top of the car as there is space in between :)
Gong xi fa cai Jun
Thank you! Gong xi fa cai!
Good sharing info. So i decided not to buy this hahahha..
Well, no problem as there are plenty of choices out there. iRG has hard shell/clam shell RTTs too, which are pretty awesome :)
Really?????????
it's good to see how far you've come Jun. I also just realized that your Forester comes with halogen headlamps which may not provide superb lighting when navigating dark roads/campsites.. should you need, just drop me a message in my insta/whatsapp inbox and I'll give you some recommendations
Hi there, wow sharp eyes. Thanks for noticing! Just for confirmation, you are Rolo right? lol
@@JunOutdoors yez it mi lol
