I just want to add that if you are ground sleeping that it will behoove you to prepare the ground before laying out the tent. I learned from reading Mountain Man biographies as a kid that they would dig out a small depression for their hips. For me I have found a 2" deep 22"or so wide and...
Exped, Synmat. I had a Exped and the cap for the in-tube started leaking and I arranged for it to be repaired under warranty. They sent me the New model vs repairing mine. I sleep great on it and the bag inflation method is a LOT easier than blowing it up. Rolls up small, even good for bikepacking!
So I think that finding info will depend on testing and it is not likely that the mfr will load the roof to collapse. The dynamic load however affects suspension and handling because that raises the center of gravity and that affects performance both on and off road. Something the mfr is likely...
I have no experience with printed plastic and question it's strength. I do have some experience with zip ties and would suggest on the final product you use hose clamps, UV is a killer to zip ties. Otherwise nice design and execution!
Sweet! Do you find any issue looking for side traffic? Like when wanting to change lanes.
I just looked at the Plano website, the 52" AW2 case is sold out at $209, the 52" Rustrictor AW2 at $249 is available and if the same mold gives dimensions. Then I checked to see what Nanuk has to offer...

Bjoem, thank you, Aahhh the advantage of the 5 door! I have a 3 door and would like to put a SS tank in my wheelwell right where yours are. Great idea on the solar shower, I'm going to start carrying mine in the spare on the hood.
Bjoem, I'd like to see your water mounting set up, have any pictures? I am trying to figure out how to lash everything down and still keep the Rovers utility.
I take 2 5 gal MWC's to the desert. I have modified 1 lid with a human powered pump, so I can swap lids when necessary.
Here's how I did it.;
Military Water Carrier, MWC, faucet
Usually I don't fill the cans at home I wait until the nearest town before going offroad, Saves fuel transporting...
If you take a medium plastic pill bottle and fill it with hot water you can stick it in your pocket for warmth. Just hold it every so often. Hot water not boiling. At home I keep a couple full and microwave them for 30-50 seconds, then go outside and work on the car or........
