FS: Alu-Cab Gen 3 RRT and Shadow Awning; Los Angeles CA; $4275!

Alu-Cab Generation 3 Roof Top Tent and 270 degree Shadow Awning (passenger side). Includes roof top rack and interior light. The rack has a rating for up to 250 lbs! It’s got all the bells and whistles.

Probably the most bad ass roof top tent on the market. See all the details here: Alu-Cab Tent | Alu-Cab Expedition Tent | OK4WD
Low profile, bomber, and goes up in seconds.

Received this one from Ok4WD just before pandemic. Put it on, did one trip, and then took it off and suspended in my shop for the last 14 months. Has only two nights of use! Still has that new plastic smell on the inside.

Awning is already mounted and lifted with 3/8” flat stock steel. So all you 5th gen. 4Runners can open your tail door with the awning deployed! For more details, see here: Alu-Cab Shadow Awning | Alu-Cab Canopy for Sale

But wait, there’s more! If you have a Prinsu Rack, I’ll include the 3, yes 3, crossbars I’ve attached to the tent so it can easily be lifted on and off the rack. You just drop it in place, insert 12 bolts and you’re ready to go! (I actually added brackets to the front end of the tent to eliminate any rattle — as the tent usually only ships with two pair of brackets for midway and rear — that’s why it’s attached to three crossbars.)

I’ll also include the telescoping ladder that I modified with the tent connector — the ladder that comes with the tent is garbage.

Might even be inclined to throw in the electric hoist you see in the pics.

Will NOT sell the awning and tent separately. Please don’t bother asking.

Brand new the tent and awning will run you about $5500 plus shipping/tax/install, so really closer to $6k. I’ll sell the set for $4276.

Do not lowball me. Local sales only, don’t know how I’d even go about shipping this beauty. If you ask nicely and buy it quick — while it’s still on the hoist, I might even help you install it on your rig!

Price Lowered! $4450

Looking to sell this before lease ends at my current space end of this month. Willing to negotiate. Don’t be insulting with lowball offers — would rather keep than sell for much less than already offering. However, I have some ditch lights still in the box I could throw in. Maybe some other goodies. Hit me up — Let’s talk!

Question about the RTT, is it the gen 3 or 3.1?

Also, how much bedding can you leave in the tent when you close it. Are you able to leave a pillow or anything else in there and still have it close without issue? Thanks

It is gen 3. But it comes with a telescoping ladder which attached to tent and that probably the best thing improved in 3.1 version. Original ladder was garbage.

You can leave ALL of your bedding in there. Pillows. Sheets. Down blankets. And a good bit of clothing. They used to tell you to leave the ladder in there but that seems like a poor idea as you’ll want your ladder to set up the tent.

It’s an awesome tent. I just don’t use it at all. And this one has had almost no use whatsoever.

And For this price you’re getting the awning for basically free.
 
Do you still have the original ladder to go with it?

In the photo the top seems to be scratched pretty good on at least one side, is that right? What happened there?

Thanks for the quick responses.

Don’t have the original ladder. It was garbage. The only thing you’d want from that ladder is the mechanism for it to attach to the tent, which I took off and affixed to the telescoping ladder that I’d be giving you with the tent. Much better that original ladder.

Not sure what scratch you mean. The RTT has been ion the hoist in my workshop for the last year. I make furniture, so perhaps what you’re thinking are scratches is in fact dust from work. There are no scratches, dings, or blemishes.
 
Final PRICE DROP

Coming up on the last week or so of my lease at the old workshop. I'll be dropping the price of the RTT to $4275 for anybody who wants to take in the next few days.

If it doesn't sell before I have to move it -- It'll still be for sale, but back at the original price. The incentive here is for me to not have to take it down, transport, and set it up on a hoist again in the new shop.

This is an incredible price for a nearly new Alu-Cab with Shadow awning already installed. Roof rack on the RTT. Telescoping ladder. And I'll throw in the hoist and perhaps some other stuff. Have some ditch lights still new in box.

Come on people, overlanding summer is upon us. Save me the hassle of moving it and get yourself and excellent deal!
 
The PRICE DROP you’ve been waiting for

Last few days of my lease. Really dont want to have to move this, so I’m dropping to lowest price. $4001 for everything. Alu-cab tent, Shadow Awning, cross bars. Thats an absurd deal.

But it has to go to new home in next few days. Hit me up — you’ll never get a deal like this again.
 
This really is an amazing deal, if I hadn't picked up my MIA tent last mo I would have probably picked this up.
 
Love the winch roof mounting system! Was it tricky to mount and set up like that? Wish I had as much clearance in my Garage! GLWS!
