The Elite series roof top tent from Tuff Stuff® Overland is the largest roof top tent we offer, suited for families of 4 or more that require additional sleeping quarters while camping. The Elite Roof Top Tent is offered with or without the lower annex room which provides additional shelter and privacy. The Elite Roof Top Tent is fully capable of sleeping 4-5 people on top and 4 additional people in the lower annex room. The Elite roof top tent also comes with 2 entry doors, 2 retractable ladders & 2 windows at the head of the tent.
The Elite tent also comes complete with a removable split wall for added privacy. We have also included 2 separate mattresses for separate bedding. This is especially nice for siblings.
The retractable ladders can also be folded away for increased space inside of the annex room.
WILL THIS FIT MY VEHICLE?:
Great question...
Rooftop tents are NOT VEHICLE SPECIFIC. No rooftop tent is compatible with any one type of vehicle. It is up to you to provide a stable roof rack that can support the weight of the tent on top, in addition to the people inside.
Heavy-duty crossbars (left to right) are necessary to support the weight of the tent, and we recommend checking your factory rail system (front to back) to confirm it will hold the weight of your tent and the people inside. Max width of your crossbar should be 3.25" or less so there are no modifications needed to use the provided brackets (shown in photos)

INSTALLATION: Your vehicle must have crossbars (left to right) that can accept 190+ Lbs, and your crossbars should be at least 50" apart for proper support.
Pickup trucks: We strongly recommend the use of a truck bed rack. We do not recommend the Elite tents to be placed on the roof of a truck.
- Install time is approx 1-2 hours with 2 people. Detailed instructions included.
- Annex room zips on after the tent has been installed.
- All necessary spikes included.
- All necessary hardware included (even the tools) to mount to most all roof racks (using the custom extruded aluminum channel system).
- Ideal mounting height for the tent would be 76″-78″ above the ground to allow for the ladder to extend and annex to hang to the ground.
**Tent mounts slide In the lower mounting rail to accommodate any crossbars (left to right on the vehicle) with a spread of up to 52". We recommend your crossbars (left to right) are no more than 45" apart for optimal support. The included lower brackets will accept up to a 3.25" wide crossbar- Crossbars wider than 3.25" will require new brackets to be fabricated. Please see photos of the provided mounting brackets for a better idea of what to expect.**
PLEASE DO NOT fabricate your mounting rails before you receive your tent. It never ends up well.
PLEASE NOTE: MUST PROVIDE YOUR OWN ROOF RACK OR BASE FOR TENT TO BOLT TO.
Freight/Delivery times are 3-5 business days from our warehouse to the Destination Terminal, Final Delivery is by appointment (this is why we require a phone number) and varies based on the distance from the Destination Terminal and the Final Delivery address (your shipping address).
Do NOT miss your delivery once scheduled or you will be charged for rescheduling. We get charged and will pass the charge on to you.
Our tents ship via LTL and will ship separately from any other items in your cart. This means, if you also ordered an awning it will ship via Ground. This is why the phone number is so important. The LTL Freight Carrier will contact you via phone to work out a delivery time. No number no delivery. Missed travel time.
All tents INCLUDE shipping only to the lower 48 states. Tents must be sent via freight truck (not UPS or Fed-Ex Ground) so please arrange an ideal location with easy access/and or forklift services to ensure no damage occurs in transit. A forklift is not required but definitely preferred.
For residential deliveries: The courier will only deliver to the sidewalk, driveway, or garage. A valid telephone number must be provided at the time of purchase. This needs to be a number that you can be reached at in order for the delivery driver to schedule a delivery time. Failure to provide a valid telephone number will result in your tent not being shipped until we can make contact with you.
If you cannot arrange to be available or fail to respond to the carrier, your tent will be returned to our warehouse and the return freight charges will be applied to your credit card.
Lastly, if you see damage to the tent packaging take pictures immediately. Refuse delivery. If you do not see any outer damage but find concealed damage once you open the packaging, stop, take pictures, and report the damage to use immediately. All damage must be reported within 24 hrs of receiving your tent. Make sure to take pictures of the packaging, the crate, the tent, anything that will provide context for the damage.
