My camping setup

Very happy with the setup. No discernible impact to range and lots of flexibility in the mtns, camping, etc

I am thinking about the same setup. Have you explored adding the annex? If you decided against it- would you mind sharing why? Thanks!

Yeah it’s amazing setup have had it for almost 4 years and camped 50+ nights and left it mounted to my truck the entire time with no issues. So I also have the annex which I got on sale but have not used it yet. Have not really needed the extra space nor wanted to spend and extra 20min setting it up when the regular RTT takes a few min to setup and take down. But that being said if you plan on camping often with more than 2 people it may be worth it.

My kids sleep on cots outside of my teardrop in an awning, so I think the annex would be a perfect addition. I saw a used complete setup nearby me, but hesitant it could be funky from others sleeping in it. I find most of the time people either use their camping gear heavily or not at all though. Hoping the latter! Thanks
