Vehicle Load Considerations

There are a number of things to consider when working out your vehicle’s load rating, and we want to help you understand the capacity of your racks and vehicle roof. Firstly, different vehicles have different roof ratings. You need to know the load rating of your vehicle. This information will be easy to find in your vehicle’s owners manual.

Secondly, there are a few different load ratings you need to understand. There are on-road and static ratings for all vehicles, as well as off-road ratings for vehicles that can travel off-road.

On-road refers to the load rating of a vehicle when traveling on a sealed road.

A static rating is the load rating of a stationary vehicle and is necessary if you’re using a rooftop tent for example.

The off-road load rating refers to a vehicle traveling on an unsealed road that does not contain a surface protection layer. Sometimes, manufacturers will list the load ratings in the vehicle’s Owners Manual.

Lastly, it is important to remember, if you buy an accessory or holder and attach it to your rack or tray, you must also include the weight of these in your cargo allowance.

It is very unsafe to overload your vehicle. The “just wing it” approach is not appropriate in this context, and failure to follow the load ratings in each circumstance could result in damage to your vehicle, potential loss of your load, voiding warranty or insurance or cause traffic accidents. It’s illegal to overload your vehicle.

• Dry Completely: Ensure the tent is completely dry before folding or storing it to prevent the growth of mold and mildew.
• Check for Damage: Inspect the fabric, seams, zippers, and mounting brackets for any signs of wear, tears, or damage. Address small issues immediately to avoid further damage.
• Waterproofing Maintenance: Apply a water-resistant treatment to the fabric regularly, especially after cleaning or exposure to heavy rain, to maintain its waterproof capabilities.
• Lubricate Zippers and Moving Parts: Periodically lubricate the zippers and any moving components, such as hinges or poles, to maintain smooth operation and prevent friction damage.
• Inspect Frame and Mounting System: Check the roof rack, frame, and mounting system to ensure everything is securely fastened. Tighten any loose bolts or nuts to prevent instability.
• Ventilation: Ensure that the ventilation openings remain clear and unobstructed for proper airflow inside the tent.
• Protect from UV Rays: When not in use, cover the tent with a protective cover to shield it from UV exposure, which can cause fading and deterioration over time.
• Routine Inspections: Regularly check for any signs of wear or damage to the fabric, frame, and mounting points. Address issues as soon as they arise to keep your tent in top condition.
