Since picking up our roof top tent about 18 months ago, we’ve noticed so many more around on the tops of vehicles which is awesome! As you know, we’re big fans of roof top tents - we’ve used our Feldon all over the country, from the beaches in the Far North to mountainous campsites down south.

The world of vehicles is undergoing a pretty major and fundamental shift at the moment - the internal combustion engine, while not going anywhere anytime soon, is under attack from the electric motor.
