I don't have experience with either but I did find this video to be instructive.

For the next 2 weeks ('till the end of March) Cascadia is having a huge discount sale going on right now. Just enter the promo code spring when checking out and you'll save 30% of just about everything they have. I ordered a Shasta tent, awning, & mesh room for the awning.

I've never had a RTT before but after reading all the reviews (and especially the great customer service from CVT's Bobby) I think this was the best move for me.

I think the RTTs are a good idea - particularly where there are a lot of creepy crawlies. I have a labrador retriever , however, who insists that I sleep within monitoring distance whilst camping. (read - within two feet and within the same geometric plane) Given her unwillingness to climb ladders, and my inability to climb a ladder while carrying her, we are limited to conventional cargo space, tarp on the ground or dome tent arrangements. Have fun picking out an RTT, and just know there is at least one jealous roverlander, and at least one disapproving "rover", looking on :lol:
