Thanks for the great video! One thing I might recommend is you can get these little steps that hook into the latch inside your car door, and it gives you a nice big step to reach up (or climb up) on top of your vehicle. Have a look, might help!

There is glow in the dark guy line rope you can purchase. I'm sure you could swap out the stock line for this and lose relatively little. There's probably actually glow in the dark Paracord out there so that would be a super durable solution

guys i really like your review. if you can't get or don't like glow-in-the-dark guys, you could probably get some glow-in-the-dark tape and just mark your guys in several locations. i definitely value your relating the 5-min setup. that's key; if the setup took 20 minutes, why have an RTT at all? if anything, your next-morning strike illustrates the durability of your victory rack :-)

This was THE most useful RTT review. Thank you! We are picking up an OVS nomadic soon and this video is very helpful. I was wondering if you don’t bring your rain fly can you realistically keep the sleeping bags and pillows in the tent?
@yvonneandjohn3979
@yvonneandjohn3979 3 года назад
Hey Dustin! Thank you so much for your compliment and for watching our video. And you definitely can. We used to keep our 2 feather pillows and sleeping bags in the tent AND keep the rainfly but you really do have to use more force down to compress and buckle everything together. Which is probably not good for the tent if you’re doing this all the time. We decided to take them out to make it a little easier for us since we’re doing this full-time.

great video, i wanted to point out something about your roof top tent, it a WIND BLOCKER, , way s to fix that i have seen a friend of mine , that has a jeep with a roof top tent, and without it , his getting 16 mileage, with it 14 mpg. he made a v- nose to fit on the front of the tent the width of the tent and just 4" above the top of the tent. its removeable before you pull the tent up, and places it back in place before your on your way, he took the jeep to a sheet metal shop and the shop fabed it up. cost was 150.00. s/s plate

My wife and I are looking at getting the Nomadic 4 for the top of our square-drop trailer. I've watched a lot of reviews on RTTs and yours is great. However, none of them mention the sturdiness and stability for when things get "frisky". Any comments or concerns in that area would be appreciated. Sorry if that comes across as a little creepy but I don't know how else to ask. Thanks!
@yvonneandjohn3979
@yvonneandjohn3979 2 года назад
Heyyy Not creepy at all. It’s definitely a valid question. We mentioned that this RTT is a bit heavier than other competitive brands and we’d like to assume it’s because of its sturdiness. We feel very secure and safe being up there sleeping in all different “positions” 😁😅 This specific brand can hold up to 300 pounds. Just be mindful of the movements.

@yvonneandjohn3979
@yvonneandjohn3979 2 года назад
Hi! We have sold our whole set up ..car, tent and everything in it. We used our tent for 9 straight months. Used it almost every day in all weather conditions. We loved it! Next time we will go for a hard shell but OVS is worth it. Only thing we didn’t like is the cover only because we never fully took ours off when using.

@Rftyree84 2 года назад
Can you change the direction that it opens? (E.g. can the anex and ladder be at the rear of the vehicle? )
@yvonneandjohn3979
@yvonneandjohn3979 2 года назад
Hey Russell, yes you can install the tent facing the rear of the car. The roof rack and the tent brackets crisscross from each other so you’d just have to screw them in a different way so the door is facing towards the trunk. They’d be no extra steps and no extra tools needed. So it’s as simple to install. Hopefully this makes sense. 😆 lol

Do they make a winter liner (insulation) for the inside? Many companies do. I’m so curious but can’t find an answer to this question. Help, please?!
@yvonneandjohn3979
@yvonneandjohn3979 3 года назад
Hey! Unfortunately they don’t have insulation. I contacted them on Instagram. What we do is we bought reflective insulation roll from home debot and that helped tons. we just put it around the poles inside. Plus layering and having a 0 degree sleeping bags.

how about packing this up in the rain? is it done the same? doesn't seem like any reviews ever mention this very probable scenario...
@yvonneandjohn3979
@yvonneandjohn3979 Год назад
Great question! To be honest in light rain, its the same process (we have done this a few times), the tent does great with not allowing any water seep in the inside, although some will under the mattress depending on how heavy the rain. If you do pack it up in rain we recommend opening the tent to dry out as soon as possible so that mildew doesnt develop. I wouldn't recommend trying to pack this in heavy rain, it can be done, but it wont be fun haha
@neiltidbury4612
@neiltidbury4612 Год назад
Not to be that person, but its GUY lines (or ropes) not guide. As with many terms and everyday phrases, its an old nautical term... From the Dutch word Gei, which was the rope that attached the sail to the mast! The more you know.

@rainbosprinkles6548
@rainbosprinkles6548 2 года назад
The issue with the weight is not due to quality. I believe it is due to lack of quality. OVS has everything made in China. The quality of the fasteners is low. This is true with the rest of the material causing a heavier weight to make up for it.
