Alright round 3 is live, I updated the OP to include some of the up to date information. Last buy was 20 tents, 5 extra. No issues were found so the 5 tents found new homes on the way home. Currently 37 tents are in the wild

For those that are new I need 25 people for this buy before I place the order, money is collected upfront and I take care of everything up to hand delivering your tent to you, all while keeping everyone informed along the way. Our safety net is extra tents, its a deal I have made to ensure if I have an issue with a tent that I can rectify it right away with another tent and deal with the manufacture later on the issue. So if you are interested please put down which color combo you are interested in, if you are only interested in a wedge or larger model tent express your interest and if enough is there than I will get the info needed for those tents

When would you need payment?

Sorry if this information is somewhere, I've been looking but can't find it and just want to confirm.

How would you like payment?

Does that mean there is a tent that it longer than the standard one you list dimensions for? I see one set of dimensions?

To confirm, is the $1700 delivered to my door or do I need to pickup that up in port somewhere?

Thank you for putting this together.

When the list reaches 20-25 people, Ill need payment to make the order. So however quickly the list comes to an end is how soon ill need payment

Payment is PayPal, keeps everything together for me and a little easier to manage.

Yes but I have never ordered one, so I would expect slight differences in the tent. The dimensions listed are for the standard one the two other sizes are new to this buy and not set in stone just yet so thats why I have yet to list details on them. The new dimension listed for the larger model is 54"wide vs 48", 54 may be a rough number.

$1700 is delivered to your door for the normal or wedge model tent, the larger one will likely be 150-200 in a rough estimate.

How this is all possible is I pick everything up and make my rounds delivering the tents from my trailer, otherwise the price would be much higher for everyones shipping because of the shipping class the box falls under. For reference for me to ship the tent to you it would cost roughly 5-600 and no guarantee that the shipping company will ensure the tent doesn't get thrown around and beat up.

So interested, but a couple of questions...
1. In some of your pictures (black/grey on a dark gray truck) that there is a small little window just right of the main entrance. Will these have that or no?
2. I noticed in your pop up video that the supporting struts are covered in fabric but in other pictures of interiors they are not. Will they be?
3. Any options for power outlets inside? USB to charge items?
4. And I looked at TW and here, will the straps be one ratcheting like a snowboard binding and one strap? Or both straps?
5. Any option for shoe holders for outside like CVT offers? I'm betting others would like those as well! They come in handy for sure. I know there are holders inside the tent, but figured I'd ask.

Thanks! I was going to ask on timing, but may have to pay up front for this then sell my CVT Mt. Shasta Extended Summit Edition RTT

The small window was an addition from the last round, it will stay

The video is the first tent received, we are on gen 3 tent at this point with this buying being gen 4. The covers are no longer on the struts, just a foam padding around it

no, I have zero interest in adding anything electronic to the tent. Most that have asked this question do not realize the USB charger requires power, its just a nice extension cable at best. So ill leave the charging in the vehicle

If you looked on TW the ratcheting straps are no longer, now its two straps one that uses an alligator style buckle and the other a traditional buckle. This seems to be the safest bet

no, only one other person has asked. They wont do you any good if its raining or snow, your best bet is to buy your self a pair of slide on slippers for camp, leave the shoes inside your vehicle where its out your sleeping area and the weather. It this is a deal breaker im sure I can ask for it even though I am a strong believer in slide on slippers for camp, nothing worse than waking up in the middle of the night to piss and having to reach out and put on a pair of wet cold shoes on your bare feet or taking the time to put socks on just to get down the ladder. Slide on slippers for the night, its where its at


For some items I will never add them, it comes down to me placing a safe bet. I want to ensure you have a lasting product, all the parts associated. It may not be my product but if you have an issue ill be the person dealing with it so im saving us both the headache. For updates to the tent I have to carefully choose what I want to do, because if I changed something that wasn't broke to begin with to something that breaks easy than thats my problem


Timing just depends how quickly the list fills up, most people that have purchased have sold their soft shell tent for this

Awesome. Thanks! I completely understand you want to keep it basic and makes total sense. I'm sure others had asked and don't blame you. As for the shoe hangers I guess I'm just used to my CVT Extended RTT that has an overhang so you can leave the shoes/slippers in those. And...slippers don't do well in the mud or snow. But yeah, since this doesn't have an awning or overhang the shoes would just be "out there" in the elements. And no, none of these are deal breakers but like someone already mentioned on TW about an extra awning would be nice and look forward to seeing if you come up with something. Thanks again!

Here you guys go... so mine has been on for 3 weeks now, I daily drive it. No noise, maybe 1mpg loss. The wife and I Love it. Super comfy, holds heat VERY well. Pad is the best so far ( coming from a cvt tent and living out of a sportsmobile for 8 months) . I store a grizzly 2 person bag, 2 blankets, 2 pillows, and the ladder up top. 1 min set up, and with all the stuff up there, maybe 5 min tops closing her up. Best purchase so far. Chandler is the best to deal with, super nice guy and is going out of his way big time with these. Let me know if you have any questions guys.

Just curious...did these come in Oakland or Long Beach last time? If you need a home base to work from/crash/etc when the delivery gets close and they come in to Oakland I live like 20min from the port. With no traffic of course. I know you mentioned Iggy helping in a previous post but I'm close as well. Shoot me a PM and would be glad to help ya out.

Typically I use Long Beach, but this time I may use a different approach for shipping depending on the location of everyone. I want to prevent backtracking if possible this this. Where last time I made a LA-Seattle-LA trip which wasn't ideal. I appreciate the offer and may take you up on it if needed

No problem! I'd tell you I'm in, but a lot of it depends on timing and when the order would go in and anticipated date of them getting here since I'm leaving CA end of May for a LONG (think 4-5 months) trip. Looks like it was pretty quick to fill last time and getting here was quick as well based on dates you posted up. As spots fill up I'll chime in. Have any in stock now?

It’s all good, I can understand the wait espically when it comes to needing something sooner or not being around by the time it happens. I have my own but I’m a good 30hr away from you
