Plus

It pitches and folds down quickly and easily.

The mattress is comfortable. There’s almost no wind noise when driving.

Minus

The tent is properly attached and therefore not easy to remove. Rather consider it a semi-permanent modification to your vehicle.

Drive & Camp loaned the rooftop tent from the manufacturer, and 4x4 Mega World in Cape Town fitted it.
