Thanks!!

What would you like to know about the heater? I have only used it on one trip (2 nights) but it worked wonders!!

Ahhhhj
It's a heater. My bad. I don't know why I jumped to the conclusion that it was a air conditioner.

Yup, just a cheap ol Chinese diesel heater lol

Here is my current setup, it is a Topo Toppers Mesa! Have had it almost four months and have spent five nights in it thus far. Really looking forward to doing some winter camping this year.

Did the tent make any hit on your fuel economy?

It wasn't great to begin with lol. But I do live in WV, so my mpg is terrible off the start. Around town I average around 13.5-14. But I did take off the active air dam, and generally have a good bit of gear in the back of the truck. On the freeway, the best I have seen since Ive added the camper is 18mpg. The best Ive gotten in the truck without the camper and basically unloaded was 21mpg.

Do you think it's weight or aerodynamics? And 18 really is good compared to most trucks on the road.

Inspired Overland Standard RTT. I had it on my Bronco previously. We like it. Nice and lightweight, I added the hybrid foam air mattress to it for added comfort.

I cannot tell it is mounted while driving.

I'm thinking about doing a similar setup. Wondering about a fairing if it would make any difference for MPGs

This year I upgraded from my 2P to a 3P Colman Snowdome tent. (LOL) Paid full retail $89. More room for the buddy heater and a small chair. Still working on the organic heater system. She's a good tent heater and bear deterrent but still high maintenance.

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen

New to the Forum, I mostly do summer camping. My old set up and my new set up. Working my way to a RTT (OVS Nomadic 4)
We are a family of 5. But for now this is what I have.
