Buying a roof top tent is a large investment. I wanted to create a video walking through 3 of the most popular styles of hard shell roof top tents and give you some of my thoughts, but also things to think about when selecting one to purchase. We stop by Modula Racks and chat with Ryan about the Roofnest line up of tents, the Falcon Pro, the Condor Overland, and the Sparrow. This is my Hardshell roof top tent 2022 buyer's guide.

    I have a small soft shell I just installed last month and used at expo for the first time this past weekend. I love it. Did great in the wind as folds up real compact. Coming from years of ground tenting this thing was like a condo for me.
  • Thanks You for a great review. I'm planning on getting a rooftent and this video showed a lot of things to consider on hardshells. Condor would definately be the choice IF I was to use that much money into it. So far had some good experiences of a soft top ARB Flinders as a rental.

    I love love the CVT Mt Hood for myself. It’s just me and my 30lb mini doodle but the setup coming from a TuffStuff Alpha 2 actually makes me get out more than I did before.
  • @OryanMcLean
    Thanks for video, didn't even consider most of these points. Another point I realized is that soft tops have a more 360 degree view, whereas hardtop don't because of obvious reason. Great, going with a soft top anyway, but was an eye opening video.

    Thanks for a great comparative overview. I've been going back and forth between iKamper and RoofNest. I'm 6'7" and looking for the most sleeping length. The more upright back shell of the Condor Overland seems like a better fit for me... It would be going on a Jeep Grand Cherokee so I'd need to upgrade my roof rack system from OEM. Thanks!!
  • Great video, trying to figure out my set up this was a helpful perspective, also love to see the Planet Ocean 600 beautiful watch!
  • @dyates6380
    Dude. THANK you for this. I'm so confused about which one to buy but you helped so much with this video. Thanks man.
  • @in.miscare
    Very cool video! Great infos! Was wondering if you can use rails on the flip up tent, from the Jeep, like the ones on the volvo. To store things on top of the tent. Would the struts support the extra weight? Cheers, thank you!
  • Good review Casey. great to see someone taller climbing in and around. Most reviews use little people like Sean to review their gear. Makes the gear look bigger.
  • @Toglander
    Memory foam gets extremely hard in cold weather. So unless you only plan on camping when it is warm, you don’t want memory foam.
  • @deathspawn54
    Dude thanks for this!!! Im currently looking at getting my first rooftop tent, i want one that i dont have to set up at night in the dark and it looks like all 3 are pretty quick, sparrow seems to be pretty decent so i might get that
  • Good video! I have one with the shoft shell flip style but take me too long packing up..
  • Love this video! I just got back from an ocean to ocean drive from Nj to Vancouver! I did it in two weeks staying in White Rock with my fam for 7 days! It was me and my two boys in our Wrangler with our old first generation Tepui Kukenam which we have loved for years. But driving 15 hours a day the set-up time and break down time was a LOT. We got to fit in 4 National parks as well but. I came home rethinking my Rig. My fuel bill was INSANE too so I’d think these would also help with that my 2014 Dragon got 11 miles to the gallon😱 The only other thing I wish I got to see in Vancouver was that Volvo!! That thing is incredible!!!
  • Pretty cool video. I'm curious about larger tent options, or tents that connect to a closed room on the ground. I've got a larger family (6 total, plus a big dog) so much more difficult to find tent solutions.
  • @ConnorHilliard
    As a tall guy struggling to find a regular tent that will fit me. It’s good to see another tall guy like yourself fitting in the RTTs. Hoping one day to build an adventure vehicle and get a RTT
