Smittybilt Overland Tents

Have had the rtt installed for a few months now with about a dozen nights camping. Setup is fairly quick, you’ll get better as you go. Quality of the tent is good for the price. We have had several terrestrial down pours and not one issue thus far as far as the rain is concerned. My only issues have been the quality of the stitching in the straps as one snapped on the first setup and the mattress is decent but had a tear in cover out of the box. Easy fixes but not something I wanted to find on the initial setup. Some small attention to detail in the manufacturing is needed as some of the holes still had sharp edges where the window rain fly poles go into the base of the tent. Overall a quality tent for the money and would buy again. Very spacious and the supplied led light is very nice.

The tent requires 2 people to install onto the roof of your vehicle. Once there however, it is setup in minutes. The toughest part was figuring out the awning rods. We did need to buy a 3 step ladder as our tent is mounted on a raised 1988 land cruiser. Using the ladder that is provided IS the key to an easy setup and break down of this tent. With a little practice, i feel we could have it ready in less than 10 minutes! Awesome design! 100% Endorsement!

We looked at the tent offered through LLBean at first and decided on this one for a lower price and larger footprint. Glad we did. The quality is GREAT as is the customer service.

We are not disappointed by this performance of this tent given its value pricing. When it arrived (from a lift gate shipper) it was missing the outer cover. 4WD was not permitted to help, so they referred me to Smittybilt who got a new one shipped out in a week or so. We have used it several times now in all sorts of weather -hot, sub-freezing, dry, driving rain, wind, thunder- and it has performed just fine. No leaks in the fabric; no mechanical issues. We added an additional memory foam mattress to supplement the one provided, and sleep great. Mounted the tent directly to JKU using the Teraflex Nemo rack system. Overall, it has been a great way to get out and start overlanding.

Great tent for the price, handles various weather conditions PNW has to offer, balanced , and durable kit for my roof rack on my JKU. Long awaited purchase and 4WD took care of me during the holiday season with a great price point.

Purchase the Smittybilt XL tent for my 1948 Willys Jeep trailer that i restored and fabricated a roof rack on it. The tent fits perfect and is exactly what I needed. Shipping was fast and 4WD customer service was excellent! Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

The XL Overlander tent fits great, almost perfectly, over top of my M416 Jeep trailer with custom built top. Materials used are of good quality, I have never owned a RTT so I can't comment in it as compared to others. Fits my needs perfectly.

Installed on 2012 FJ with Baja Rack. Southeast Overland did install and good job. Tent is amazing, very comfortable sleeping with two adults and Jack Russell Terrier. First nigh was 32F in Asheville NC and very comfortable, even up/down ladder for bathroom stops. Very snug and secure, easy to pop up/down. Heavy cover and rack make no wind noise on rack versus un-usable FJ OE rack. Putting back down takes one person about 10 minutes total. Foam mattress is incredibly comfortable, best night sleeping, no movement when rolling around, very stable. Second time left open moon roofs with screens, really awesome. High and dry, no cold, bumpy ground or messing around with stakes. Be the envy of every campsite! Next stop: Outer Banks and no people!

WILL BUY AGAIN FOR MY OTHER JEEP
