Do you have any pics with tent and mattress aired up? I currently use a 6-person tent with queen size mattress and like the room. Curious how much room is left over in the T4 with mattress aired up. Thanks

UPS just dropped off the Gazelle T4 tent that was the raffle prize we won at the Overland Bound Ozark Rally.
I can’t believe how easy it is to set up. Should be fun. It goes up faster than my ez-up camping cube.

The disc-o-bed XL will be in tomorrow so I’ll try to throw up the T3 in the backyard and see if it fits.

If you need more room, Gazelle said the T4 Plus (2 room, 8 person tent) will be back in stock in August.

Dang after seeing the size of your T4 next the the Tacoma - there is no way that is going in a JK hardtop with the doors still attached. That is why I don't have an OZ tent either :(. I guess I could just strap it down to the roof.

Deciding on a tent is one of the hardest things I have ever done. I thought I wanted the gazelle T4 until I found another tent for almost half the price that sets up the same way, has straight walls and 84" height. Looks almost exactly like a gazelle except for the straight wall feature. It is called an Alps Mountaineer and comes in two sizes like the T3-T4 gazelle's. If anyone knows anything about the Alps brand I would appreciate hearing from you.

Need is the mother of invention. Its not heavy so maybe u could tie it sideway across the font or rear bumper if you have the space.

Check out the Alps mountaineer camp 6 tent @ $190 . I think it folds into a package only 3' long. This is the direction I am considering.

Watch the YouTube review of the ALPS Mountaineering Camp Creek 6 Person Tent.
To quote the content creator, “man that was a chore to put together with just one person...”.
And you have to deal with poles. Screw dealing with poles.

The only con I've experienced with the t4 is the size when collapsed for transport. Currently we are strapping the tent to the maxtrax and crossbars. It’s not ideal but it will work till we get a proper rack. The materials seem to be top quality. We fit 5 no problem and have enough room for our bags.
I paid $195 during a sale.

I typically set the cruise to the posted limit. On the hard road around here the speed limits are 50 to 75. As for distance I usually stick to weekend warrior stuff so distances are typically 100ish on hard road and 30-50 on the dirt. Honestly I dont even notice it up there. I was expecting MPG to take a hit but it didn't.
