Overland Vehicle Systems Sidewinder Aluminum Roof Top Tent

OVS Sidewinder - Built Tough To Take A Beating

It doesn’t get much more Hard Shell than this! The Sidewinder from Overland Vehicle Systems is amongst the toughest in class when it comes to all aluminum side-hinged Hard Shell Roof Top Tents. The aluminum body will withstand a beating if you venture into areas with low-hanging branches or dense vegetation. This is ideal if you are a 4x4 warrior, a hunter, or just like taking your adventure rig off the beaten track! 

This 2-person, 4-season rooftop tent comes with a lot of standard features out of the box, such as an Anti-Condensation Mat, a thick 2” Mattress, and Removable Cross Bars for additional exterior storage. This is great if you need to carry extra gear, surfboards, kayaks, etc. on your adventures.

Full-Length Headroom 

If you are a taller person (6+ft), a side-hinged Roof Top Tent like the Sidewinder is a great option and will provide more foot space when open, compared to the Clamshell type tents.

The included adjustable interior pop-up struts provide full headroom through the length of the tent and are ideal for additional support when weight has been added to the cross bars.

For your safety, please always adhere to the loading instructions and maximum weight capacities of your vehicle, your roof rack, and/or cross bars. 

Bedding Fits Inside And Quick Set Up Time If You Only Got a Minute

If it is a priority to have more time to explore or spend with the family around the campfire, the Sidewinder is just what you are looking for. With a “Set Up” and “Store Away” time of less than a minute, this tent scores high here as well. All you need to do is unlock two latches, pull down your ladder, and insert the two included window rods.

Reverse the process to store it away, and you are off on your next adventure in a heartbeat. The tent even has enough interior space to store bedding or sleeping bags when closed, which is great if you don’t have too much storage space inside your vehicle.

Low Gas Mileage Impact

The design of the Sidewinder is rugged, durable, and aerodynamic. This helps keep the impact on your gas mileage to a minimum.

Fully Compatible With Your Rig And Gear

Out of the box the Sidewinder has T-slot accessory channels to help mount recovery gear and many other smaller lightweight accessories directly to the body of the tent. Furthermore, the previously mentioned cross bars are fully compatible with Thule and Yakima accessories giving you more flexibility to customize your vehicle to each of your adventures. The cross bars are not expandable, but they can be removed if you wish to do so.

Easy Installation

The Sidewinder Roof Top Tent is a universal Item, which requires no drilling or modification to your vehicle if equipped with a factory or aftermarket roof rack or cross bars. With the help of a friend, lift it on your roof rack or cross bars and follow the detailed instructions provided using the stainless steel mounting hardware included. Please ALWAYS check roof rack compatibility before installing the tent, as some racks are listed as "not compatible" with certain tent models.

Please note that it’s very important to check your owner's manual or to contact your vehicle's manufacturer to get information on vehicle load capacities and warranty information before installing the roof top tent. Here are a few questions to ask:

• What’s the vehicle’s Static Weight Capacity? This confirms that your vehicle and your rack will support the weight of your tent, plus everyone in it and their sleeping gear.
• What’s the vehicle’s Dynamic Weight Capacity? This is the force exerted on your car and rack while you're driving, so it will be a separate spec for your vehicle and rack.
