Vehicle Compatibility Notes
The vehicle models listed above represent platforms on which this rooftop tent is commonly used by customers.
It is important to ensure that both your vehicle roof and roof rack dynamic load ratings are sufficient to support the tent.

Rear Hatch & Tailgate Clearance
Rear Hatch & Tailgate Clearance
Rear hatch or tailgate clearance depends on the relationship between the vehicle’s usable roof length and the tent’s closed length.
If the tent closely matches or exceeds the usable roof length, rear hatch or tailgate clearance may be limited, and full opening may not be possible.
Common solutions include:
Depending on the vehicle and mounting position, the following solutions may help improve clearance:
- Repositioning the tent forward on the roof rack
- Using a full-length platform rack
- Adding rack risers or spacers
- Upgrading rear hatch lift struts
- Using a bed-mounted or external support system (exoskeleton rack), where applicable
Load Capacity & Support Systems
Load Capacity & Support Systems
If your vehicle roof or roof rack does not meet the required dynamic load capacity, an external support system (such as an exoskeleton rack) may be required to safely carry the tent.
