I made my own as per a couple of posts ago.. the reason i prefer my set up is, all ladders that are connected to the car go either on the barn door or rear side.. considering my tent is at the back i would need to climb over the tent each time and when the tent is open could not use it at all. And mine is only 80 dollars.. not to mention it can be useful for anything else that may require a little extra height!!
I bought a step ladder from bunnings ($60) to aid opening the tent. Makes life MUCH easier :clapping: Fits in the back and packs nice and flat.

Yeah I was just thinking of the ones that are there permanently.
But I see your problem about when the tent is open mate. But when it's open will you need to get up the ladder???
What a fantastic idea for the solar panels. After you slide them out, can you tilt them or do they stay rigid?
I'm impressed to say the least !!! Definately on my 'probably will do' list. Thanks.

EDIT: Rottodiver, I can't see your truck in the Member's ride thread http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...-Members-Rides
Do you mind starting up your truck's thread? There's a few questions I want to ask, without hyjacking other peoples threads. Thanks.

HEY :)
I have a feather light roof top tent its really quick to set up and you can leave some bedding in there, to save climbing up on the roof we have attached a string to the zipper. you will have to get on the roof unless you have a ladder to close it up. It is a great tent, the only down fall with roof toppers I have found is late night toilet trips and lightening storms.
Oh and its is really light hence the name.
Ok so i picked up an ironman tent today. $900. The bloke has had it but never used it :)
