FYI: Smittybilt RTT and Annex on sale @ Amazon

Posting here in case anyone is also in the market and finds this helpful.

I’ve been going back and forth between a few options, but needed:

1) Enough space for 3 of us (two smaller people)
2) A place for Tall Dog to sleep nearby
3) An option for a 4th person without pitching a second tent
4) Fitment over the bed only without going roof-height racks

This basically narrowed my options to soft RTT with an annex. Of which there are many choices!

Smittybilt Gen2 (not the XL - too long for the bed) was on the shortlist, and found today on Amazon that they are both on sale for about $1470 combined, which is about the cost of the tent alone from other sites.

I don’t know our Forum rules on posting links for sale, so I leave it to you immense google skills, which will not be taxed by this search.

Should be here in a couple of weeks, which is hopefully when I’ll be over this bout of Covid and can get back into the wild.

How are you liking this setup? My needs are very similar to what you listed.

I thin the annex would be great if your truck is set up with roof-height racks. Otherwise, it’s too low and unusable if mounted to the bed racks. It’s also required to have the roof-height racks to properly set up the rain fly of this particular tent (fully - you get 3 corners just fine with the bed-height setup).

Bed-height for just the tent is great, except for the one corner you can’t get the rain fly set at.
