Hey everyone! I'm looking for a RTT which is not very tall when closed down/collapsed. My 4Runner will be getting a lift and new shoes in a couple of weeks and I'm concerned about garage door clearances.

I will wait until after the lift to see what my actual clearance measurement will be - - but in the mean time, I'm wanting to shop around for RTTs which collapse down pretty thin, so I can at least start figuring out what I like and dislike about different brands, styles, extras, etc. I will only buy after I know it will all fit into my garage.

Ideally, I think I want a hard cover tent but I'm open to everything at this point. I only need sleeping space for 2 adults and a couple of pups so a 2+ or a 3 person would work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Hard to point you any direction without that magic height figure. My Eezi-Awn is about 2” shorter closed than my old Tepui. Hard to say which one I like better. Both have strengths and weaknesses. The Eezi-Awn is a clear winner in the quality of construction category.
