P1000 Rooftop tent

[Awfoges]

Anyone put a rooftop tent on their 1000-5? Not sure if it’s practical of feasible.

I saw one at a trade show....

I’m sure the ROPS on the Pioneer is stronger than most vehicle roof racks.

I would never do it personally because I don’t want the COG to be raised. I prefer to keep the dirty side down.

I saw a full mini truck bed camper on one once. Right… @Hondasxs ?

I stand on mine all the time to set up my zip line brake. I would think it’s plenty strong

Center of gravity worries me a little bit, not sure that I will ever do it but thought of it this morning and seemed like a cool idea. And would be cool on some hunting trips.

The lightest RTT I have found is 86 pounds.

The Rev Tent is the world's only SLEEP FIRST camping tent. Featuring a 4" thick dual layer foam mattress -we prioritize a great night's sleep. With 4-Season durability, superior views & ventilation, the Rev Tent can be set up on the ground, in a pick-up bed AND on the roof of vehicles!

But I still think that is a lot up that high. Maybe for standard fire roads it would be fine, but anything off camber would be a puckerfest!

@Gold-digger had one, said he loved it. He since moved on to a yamaha after totaling his Pioneer in a roll over..

A roll-over due to the RTT on it?

 

[Dirtstiffs-1000]

I could be wrong about him having the tent on at the time he rolled over.
So I'm deleting my post.
I'm not sure my facts are correct.

Ask @Gold-digger

I understand, I don't want to spread any misinformation either.

I see a lot of RTT on suvs and on the bed of trucks. Lots of weight up there, but more manageable with a 5-6k vehicle vs a 1,500 pound SXS.

I guess I don't see the problem here . . . if it rolls over with the roof to tent, just go to bed and sleep on your side.

Seems to me there was a guy on here that modified his roof in some fashion, also put up a light pole i believe......
