ROOFTOP TENTS AND WHY WE LOVE THEM

ROOFTOP TENTS AND WHY WE LOVE THEM

Are you ready to hit the road and travel across Australia or just looking to get away for a quick weekend getaway? In that case, a rooftop tent could be the perfect combination of comfort and convenience. Read on to see why the team at Maxliner Australia love them.

Time

Perfect for chucking on top of your Patrol or your MaxTop Canopy on the Hilux, you can set up a rooftop tent in minutes, meaning more time to relax and put your feet up with a cold beverage rather than hammering tents pegs in the dark.

Protection

Swags are quick and easy to great…until you get torrential rain and the ground gets muddy, or the local wildlife decides to check out your digs. A RTT gives you better protection against weather and wildlife.

Money

Sure packing up a camper trailer or caravan and heading off for the weekend can be an effortless weekend away, but a van or trailer can be exxy. Not to mention the extra insurance, fuel, and wear and tear that comes with towing.

So what type of rooftop tent should you get. There are many options around, including Darche, 23Zero, iKamper, and there are advantages to each brand. You can choose from soft or hard shells, with or without an annex; it ultimately comes down to how you want to use it, who you want to take with you and what kind of setup you want to achieve.
