    ... did anyone else pick up that they didn't have the RTT attached to the vehicle in the demo.
    It was just sitting on the Roof Rack.
    Soooo... in real life... every time you used it you would have to unattach the RTT, then to reattach get the vehicle/RTT just right so you could lock the RTT back down

    Also the legs and sway braces would be bitch to store as you travel around

    IMHO it would be a total pain in the rrse... but I am not a RTT user

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    Ummmm... two is better than one right?

    Not sure what I think of this. Too much weight on the roof is the first thing but looks custom so maybe it is ok. Not something I would personally do though.

    There's a guy with an Amarokk that has 2 RTTs fitted on top, living near me. Ones on the canopy , the other on roof.
    Just doesn't look right and I'm sure the weight is out of spec you'd think.
    But the thing always looks muddy and beaten up , and it's been like it for ages, so he's not afraid to use it and seems to be holding on ok.
