$25,000 Roof Top Tent
 
Not a typo, $25k to sleep on the roof of your vehicle. Another option for $20k.
Redtail Overland

I’m taking donations. I will use your money to do a full write up exclusively on here.

Correction to title, Roof Top “Camper”

That's 2 years of rent for a lot of folks, to put it in perspective. For a tent.

I think its pretty impressive and I can see why its upwards of 20K, but I don't see him selling to many of those bad boys...

Makes more sense that the founders worked at Earthroamer previously.
Check it out at Expo West. Probably get an Expo deal.

Part of a mortgage goes to pay down principal which goes into your asset (the property). Also, you get a discount on income taxes most likely.

This tent doesn't get either of those benefits and instantly drops in value the moment you purchase it (even before it is used).

Take the house!

And guess what? There is somebody stupid enough to buy one.

So just like Earthroamer, their goal was to make the most expensive thing possible in their class.

Too many gizmos to break and hinged panels to leak in the rain.

Still better cred than glamping in a $500K motorhome. It would be great on top of a $60K JLU Rubicon pulled behind a $500K motorhome though.
