Thread: Hanibal Rooftop tent advice

I have their 2m tent. It's a beauty with twin doors, twin ladders. You won't be disappointed going the Hannibal. They are a great company to deal with. I know there are cheaper options out there, but the quality of the Hannibal is very very good.

My only gripe is that my twin ladders don't fit within the tent when folded up. They're supposed to, I think I have too much bedding left in tent. The tent has stood up to some heavy winds and rain with no problem.

Your big decision is jumbo fly or not. I don't have jumbo fly and when raining I wish I did, however the 360 degree views and breeze all other times is wonderful.

Apart from being really expensive I know nothing about Hannibal, I have seen these in person though, on a members Def 130, very good quality and Aussie made, yes they are not cheap either, but they are made here.

Hi Kenley,
Thanks for that, can you not add the jumbo fly on after or is it something that needs to be bought / built into the tent. Leaning more and more towards the Hanibal just wanted to see if there were any compelling reasons not to. Also are you happy with the mattress provided or did you modify?
Cheers Cam

Hi Baz,
Yep their up their in price, I need a base around 1.2 m unfolded to fit my existing rack which was another reason I was interested in the Hanibals

I have an aussie traveller 'deluxe' which is similar to mr swagman..........the aussie traveller mini is your conventional RRT, I have not seen one but would imaging it would be a high quality product...Australian made

Thanks Kelvin,
It's really useful to get these links ( going to have a look at both this one and Mr Swagman 's) as these are brands I'm not familiar with. Cheers

The Aussie Traveller is a good quality tent also.

Regarding your earlier question - from all I've seen there is certainly no compelling reason NOT to buy a Hannibal. I've yet to meet an unhappy owner.
