My answer did sound a little short didn't it, I'm sorry. I discussed this with someone else in the first pages of this thread and I got all my info from Amazon oddly enough. I even calculated the width of the tent from corner to corner. All I remember now is that a bunk bed would not fit a T3 even at that angle, but a T4 was plenty big for bunks plus a queen. The length of the T4 and T4 plus was discussed earlier as well. I'm just tired today, sorry I was short and glad you were able to help out.
No need for sorrys bro. At least not to me. We are good! I know my wife is looking forward to the tent. I think it will be a convenient addition!

Ran across a great deal on 2 Pelican 1770 cases. I was hoping that they would fit on my Prinsu roof rack with room for my Gazelle T4 in between. Well I couldn't ask for a better fit! I have moved the Hi-Lift out to the right edge since the video so now the left case is not resting on the awning brackets. I also turned the T4 so it was upside down so the handles and straps won't flap around. IMG_1045.JPGIMG_1044.JPGIMG_1043.JPG

Very nice and very organized. Roof racks can be wonderful.

Thank you very much. They do look very integrated if you ask me. I drool over some setups I see on here and other forums. I try to make mine the best I can within my limited budget. Not gonna lie I never imagined I would have two of thees cases. It comes down to being in the right place at the right time! Gonna use the heck out of them I assure you.

Y'all are awesome. I was researching tents today. Wife is very much against RTT. Plus we would have to spend more money upgrading her rack (car not wife).

I think we will be getting the T4. I want room. I will strap that sucker to the roof.

I love the Pelican 1770 idea!! That is slick.

Now to search the forums about vehicles.

Wife and I are going to pull the trigger and go with a Gazelle T4. Should for our queen mattress and a buddy heater (if we need it).

We have been using a Coleman air mattress. Does anyone have a better mattress?
Won’t be sorry.. we love ours!!!!!

For mattress, we recently picked up an REI Camp Dreamer Double

I prefer a cot which doubles as a couch kinda and memory foam mattress.
For my tent setup I do the same thing. I like being off the ground and able to store gear underneath the cot. My cot is a bit of a pain to setup but wit a pad on top it is super comfortable. I only use this setup 1-2 times a year though since I generally use my trailer. Nothing worse than your air mattress getting a leak in the middle of the night. Been there...

I'm with you on that. Not that fond of air mattresses at all. I guess I am not the only one who has two different methods of camping out. I call my trailer civilized camping even when I'm disbursed and my tent camp is boondock camping. Then I have the travel mode car bed using the memory foam when I just pull off the road somewhere and nap or sleep when I'm tired or too late to set up camp. Been a while since I've done any and cant wait till fall to get out again with my new rig setups with solar for extended stays in the boonies.

Bought a T4 Plus last year at Overland East, and as luck would have it, I haven't been able to use it yet. Still in the box. Heavy, I will give you that, the thing weighs a ton. Plan to bring with me this year for Expo East, and set it up. We'll see.

I think you will be glad you bought it last year, I think there was a hefty price increase this past year. Still worth it though to have plenty of room and be able to stand up too>

I did notice that. I think we got the Expo special pricing too. I have started on a new gym membership to be able to lift the T4 Plus in and out of the rig :)

Don't leave your come along at home, park near a tree to have an anchor, then start jacking ! You'll get it out or off the rig.
