FAQ
Q: What’s the difference between Approach 2M and Approach 2S?
A: The 2M is larger, with more internal volume and space to comfortably sleep up to 3 adults. The 2S is a more compact 2-person option.
Q: Can I mount this to my factory roof rack?
A: Possibly. It requires a crossbar-style rack system with a minimum dynamic load rating of 75 kg. We recommend an aftermarket roof rack for best fit and strength.
Q: Does it include the mattress?
A: Yes, a dual-density 6 cm (2.4 in) foam mattress with quilted cover is included.
Q: Can I run a diesel heater or A/C into it?
A: Yes. The built-in heating port allows for a flexible hose to be run through the tent wall safely.
Q: Is installation available?
A: Yes. Cap-it offers professional installation services at our store locations in Western Canada.
