Htchevyii Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 We finally received our Carbon Fiber composite tent from Inspired Overland that we pre-ordered several months ago. It definitely should decrease wind resistance and lower COG. It's 4.75" closed and 80 LBS. I'll post a YouTube link if you'd like to see more.

Htchevyii Posted May 29 Author Share Posted May 29 I think that it could be a great choice for someone who drives around with a tent on their vehicle all of the time on their daily driver or a more aerodynamic vehicle. I am happy with lower profile, that combined with the light weight should have a minimal impact on center of gravity. For our uses, (not daily driven, the aerodynamics of a brick and limited storage capacity), I think that there may be better options. I think that for us, a little taller profile that allowed more bedding storage would be worth the tradeoff. I don't like having to pack up bedding every day and finding clean and dry storage in a regular cab truck packed with 2 weeks worth of supplies isn't ideal. I did order another deflater to try, (the more that foam/air mattress is deflated, the more room inside and the easier it is to close.) Right now, we have one sleeping bag and one down comforter and it barely closes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
