Veelgestelde vragen

The Smittybilt Overlander Roof Top Tent weighs 132.00 lbs. Your rack's dynamic load rating is the limiting factor—not static. Most factory crossbars handle 150–165 lbs dynamic. If you're close to the limit, aftermarket bars solve the problem. Gebruik onze compatibiliteitscheck to confirm.

The Smittybilt Overlander Roof Top Tent weighs 132.00 lbs (59.90 kg). Here's why that matters: your vehicle's dynamic roof load rating must comfortably exceed this weight. Add passengers sleeping inside (static load only) and you need the static rating to clear roughly 432.00 lbs total.

De installatie vereist twee personen en ongeveer 45 minuten. The Smittybilt Overlander Roof Top Tent bolts to your crossbars using the included mounting hardware. Key requirement: verify your crossbar spread is between 24" and 48" before you start.

Yes, but the Smittybilt Overlander Roof Top Tent's folded profile creates more wind resistance than a hardshell. Highway speeds of 65–70 mph are fine when properly secured. Here's why caution matters: check all buckles and straps before driving—a loose cover flapping at speed can tear fabric and damage the tent.

The Smittybilt Overlander Roof Top Tent uses 600D ripstop polyester PU coated fabric with a 1500mm waterproof rating. Daarom is het belangrijk: 1500mm houdt matige regen tegen, 3000mm+ houdt aanhoudende stortbuien tegen. It's rated 3_season. Dicht alle ritsen jaarlijks af om de waterdichtheid te behouden.

Expect about 5 minutes for a full setup of the Smittybilt Overlander Roof Top Tent. That includes unfolding, extending the ladder, and securing any rainfly or annex. Practice twice at home and you'll cut that time in half. Teardown takes roughly the same.

Plan for a 15–20% fuel economy hit with the Smittybilt Overlander Roof Top Tent installed. Here's why: 132.00 lbs of added weight plus aerodynamic drag increase consumption at all speeds. The penalty is worst above 65 mph where drag scales exponentially. Some owners only mount it for trips to minimize the ongoing cost.
