GearJunkie testers evaluated 10 rooftop tents over 12 months, including trips to Baja California and the U.S. The top clamshell is the Roofnest Falcon 3 EVO ($3,795), the shortest and most aerodynamic model from the brand, with a hybrid PC-ABS and aluminum shell offering 10x better insulation. The budget alternative is the Topoak Galaxy 1.0 ($1,968), featuring an internal U-bar and a 79x52-inch sleeping area. Also highlighted is the inflatable Dometic TRT 140 Air ($2,500), weighing 107 lbs with a single-point inflation system and polycotton canopy.
