In this video I show the hoist setup I built to easily remove and then store our new roof top tent. I haven't yet shown this tent on the channel, but we just got it. My wife has summers off so her plan is to go camping with our son and wanted to try a RTT; who am I to say no?! So ultimately this will get mounted to my wife's Toyota Highlander. In the mean time, I'm testing it out :)

0:00 intro

4:35 up it goes!
5:10 lowering to the dolly
7:20 hoisting into the corner storage spot
7:28 close up of the hoisting fixture, winch, and storage spot

In this video I go over my current diesel heater setup that mounts to my rack over one of my rear windows.
