8. What Are The Advantages Of A Roof Top Tent?

The setup is extremely fast and you have way better protection from wind and water/rain. You are off the ground and the temperature is much better in the RTT.  Up in the air camping allows you to get away from the creepy crawlies and the animals that swing around your campsite to say hi at 2:00am.  Ground camping takes some finesse when you have to move rocks, dirt, sand and when the tent is on your vehicle all you have to do is make sure the vehicle is level.  Breakdown is minutes and you are back on the road or trail to your next adventure.

9. Will A Bene Hike Tent Fit My Vehicle?

Great Question and you should always contact the manufacturer information of the vehicle to see what the weight capacity of the rack or Crossbars will hold. Look to see if the vehicle rates the Dynamic Weight Load and all of the Bene Hike tents have their weights and max capacity on the website specification section. If you are mounting on the back of a truck, most Overland racking systems are designed to take a roof top tent.

10. Can The Tents Be Mounted On A Pickup Truck Bed?

All Overland tents require a Tent Rack to mount the tent brackets. Bene Hike® Not Sale Tent Rack.

11. Is Mounting Hardware Included?

No, Bene Hike® Rooftop tents don't include rack and Crossbars.

12. What Kind Of Rack / Crossbars Do I Need?

With their universal mounting system, Bene Hike® rooftop tents can be mounted on most vehicles on the market. They are designed to be mounted on two normal crossbars (not directly on the roof of the car), the same bars you would attach your bike or kayak to.

your roof's dynamic weight limit is and match up to the weight of the tent.

- Our roof top tents are designed to fit on most vehicles with roof racks. The general rule of thumb is to make sure that your rack has a Dynamic Weight Capacity of at least the weight of the tent. This is the weight that the rack can physically carry while the vehicle is in motion. When the tent is in use, the weight of the tent plus the weight of its occupants is effectively dispersed over the entire frame of the vehicle, as well as the tent hinge and ladder, also known as the Static Weight Capacity.

13. What Are The General Maintenance Guidelines?

When you return home from overlanding or camping, you should clean and dry your tent. Also, wash the mattress and cover occasionally (only hang dry the mattress).  Read the basic maintenance guides below.

14. How Should I Clean My Tent?

- Open the tent fully and brush with a hard brush / vacuum all dirt from inside of tent
- Use a mild detergent only.  The mixture is about 1 cup of Lysol all-purpose cleaner to 1 gallon of hot water. Allow the water to cool down a bit and with warm water and a soft to medium brush to clean the fabric as needed.
- Once done cleaning, rinse fabric with warm or cool water of all detergent prior to drying.
- Let it dry under the sun with all windows open. It is important that the tent is completely dry before storage or mildew and mold may occur. This is especially necessary after camping in rain or wet conditions.
- Using a small brush, remove dirt from the zippers. Also, use a silicon spray to keep them lubricated.
- The tents come with a comfortable mattress; it includes a washable cover, so you will not need an air mattress or a cover sheet for it.

15. How Do I Care For Mold And Mildew:

Please note that if moisture or humidity is trapped in the canvas material for a length of time, mold and mildew will start to form. If mold or mildew starts it will stain the canvas and produce a bad odors.  
Don't let it even start. Never put your tent away damp.
In order to handle mold properly, follow these steps:
1. Open the tent up and brush the affected area with a hard bristled brush to get and loose dirt off.
2. Using a Lysol solution of (1 cup Lysol to 1 gallon water), wash the canvas using a sponge and the bristled brush.
3. Rinse the tent off with a solution of - 1 cup lemon juice, 1 cup sea salt, 1 gallon hot water.

4. Once the Lysol solution has been properly washed out, let the tent dry outside for a few hours and feel the tent canvas to make sure it is completely dry.

IMPORTANT NOTE THE TENT MUST BE COMPLETELY DRY BEFORE YOU CLOSE IT UP AND STORE THE TENT.

16. What Do I Need To Do If I Intend To Camp In The Rain Or Snow?

After you have set up, spray the tent with water and allow it to dry completely. This gets the canvas ready due to the water causes the canvas to swell slightly, closing the needle holes where the canvas was stitched. The most effective way to do this is to have the tent out in its first good rain. You only need to do this once.
