23Zero — Armadillo A3 Rooftop Tent
The 23Zero Armadillo A3 is a rugged, 14 gauge, fully welded, Aluminum, four-season, hard-shell roof-top-tent. Its shell is uniquely aerodynamic styled with a semi-textured, high-gloss, black, trail-hardened finish, ready to deflect low-hanging branches or high-speed roadways in all conditions.
The lift and fold-out design allows for easy and quick deployment, perfect for long stays or a quick overnighter. The shell includes T-slot mounting rails ready for you to mount solar panels, racks, gear boxes, etc., so you can travel with additional gear that might otherwise be left at home.
It includes our revolutionary LST (light suppression technology) feature, which reduces light penetration to almost zero light until any windows are opened. Also, your RTT will maintain temperatures inside the tent that are up to 15% cooler. You can sleep better than ever before in our rooftop tents.
The Armadillo A3 feels spacious and plush and is ideal for individuals, couples, or families. Extra space is created inside the tent when the shell is opened, allowing for gear to be stored inside, and the internal quilted headliner feels cozy. An Annex is available as an additional option, enclosing the ladder and providing a privacy space all the way from the base of the tent to the ground.
Additionally, the Armadillo includes a portable USB LED clip-on-pole light, anti-rattle zippers, internal power supply pouches, and two external hanging boot bags. The 2-inch Rebound Foam mattress is newly engineered with a higher latex content to resume its original shape much faster than traditional high-density foam roof-top-tent mattresses. It feels firmer, and side-sleepers will not slowly sink to the bottom, and it comes with a breathable, removable quilted topper.
The Armadillo A3 can be purchased with a right or left-side deployment option, which allows for optimized placement on your choice of overland rig ranging from wagons to bed-mounted mid-sized 4×4s to monster custom builds. The A3 measures 72 inches wide by 86 inches long and is a 3-4 person tent. The A2 measures 56 inches wide by 78 inches long and is a 2-3 person tent.

Alu-Cab USA & OK4WD — 180° Shadow Awning
The newest awning in the Alu-Cab Shadow Awning range is the 180° Shadow Awning. Once opened, this free-standing awning folds out to be parallel with your vehicle, allowing access to the rear of your vehicle, where your drawer system, fridge, and supplies are stored. There are no additional steps or poles to pitch; simply unzip the bag and walk the awning through its 180 degrees of coverage. It is so easy; one person can manage it.
The new 180º shares the same strength, durability, and quality you find in Alu-Cab’s 270° awning. The 180º Shadow Awning is made from reflective ripstop material, which assists in casting a noticeably lower-shade temperature. For seasoned campers, an awning is very often the first accessory they bolt to their vehicle, knowing that the ability to cast as much shade as possible (in the quickest time) is crucial to overland travel. For inclement weather, guy ropes can be used to prevent the pooling of water on the canvas and to guide water runoff in preferred places.
The 180º Shadow Awning measures 2.6 meters long when closed, weighs in at 53 pounds, and covers over 82 square feet, so you’ll have plenty of shade and weather protection. Fitment brackets for various mounting options are available so that it can easily be attached to a strong roof rack, tents, campers, or load bars.

And it works fast, so you can get onto the adventure. No pumping by hand, adding chemicals, or waiting for water to percolate through gravity filters. It puts clean water directly into your onboard tanks or jerry cans.
The Guzzle H2O Stream has a built-in LiFePO4 battery, which can treat up to 35 gallons of water per charge. It pumps, filters, and purifies water at 0.75 gallons per minute, allowing for quick filling of large containers, or onboard water tanks.

RiGd Supply — UltraSwing
The UltraSwing exists because overlanders want a rock-solid, lightweight solution for carrying a full-size spare tire, bikes, and other essentials like a camp table, extra fuel, and recovery gear. We couldn’t find anything that met all these requirements and also weren’t happy with the fitment of other hitch-mounted solutions until we found the UltraSwing. RiGd has the philosophy that just because something is hitch-mounted doesn’t mean it can’t fit on your rig as properly as a bumper/swing-out. The UltraSwing is the ultimate combination of functionality and reduced weight to be your companion on the aimless journey.
The RIGd UltraSwing is available in three sizes: 5th Generation 4Runner Specific, Multi-Fit for most mid-size trucks and SUVs, and Mega-Fit for full-size trucks, SUVs, and vans.
All UltraSwing versions feature an adjustable/removable wheel plate that can accommodate tires up to 37 inches (or 40 inches on the Mega-Fit), a secondary swinging hitch (for bike racks), an integrated license plate relocation mount, as well as a lower receiver tow-rated to 10,000 lbs. Don’t need a spare tire carrier yet? The UltraSwing’s front plate has plug-n-play mounts for RotopaX and can also be used for mounting items like a WaterPORT. The UltraSwing weighs 65 pounds and can carry a load on the swingarm of up to 250 pounds (spare tire, bikes, fuel, etc.).
UltraSwing accessories include the UltraTable drop-down camp table, as well as mounts for Hi-Lift, RotopaX, jerry cans, and a molle panel to mount just about anything you can think of.
