There have been several threads on here and other forums about _issues_ with JB tents. I myself are having issues with my tent I'm waiting to get resolved. I obviously don't have any numbers as I'm not a reseller of any sorts but from what AdventureReady is saying we must be a right bunch of...
Personally I think a Mocha pot makes the best coffee second only to a huge barista machine. If you get an electric Mocha pot like this one you will be very happy...
Very good review!
I have been cozy with many roof tents on the market and the Alu-cab is one of the absolute best for sure. A couple of things I would personally like to see different but it's really really good.
I have a hard shell myself (not alu-cab) and I would never consider a clam shell...
Heading to Portugal soon and want an app with off line storage of the tracks we will be taking. I have GPX files, need maps!
People are suggesting ViewRanger but it doesn’t have maps for Portugal.
Here in Ireland we are blessed with more rain than most and my JB has been out in it for 3 years straight now and it’s bone dry inside.

I think the tunnel itself is a bit of a faff though, not particularly impressed.
I do like the awning though, I'd...
I know 3 people with Bundutops and they have all had a lot of issues with them. Everyone has had different issues as well so it's not the same problem that keeps popping up.
It feels like they never progressed beyond the prototype stage.
Here in Ireland high winds is a very common problem so from experience hard shell roof tents are the best. Soft, or clamshell, tents are terrible. Most ground tents are pretty bad too.
The key is the tent material being completely taught. This will reduce wind noise but it will not eliminate it...
When you go away for a couple of days you don't really want to be holed up in your tent. I've a hard shell rtt so it's a pretty small space. The car doesn't have much room left in it either with all the gear so also not a nice place to spend the weekend.
Because it's "normal" doesn't mean it's...
