C6 Outdoor Launches with Game-Changing Rev Tent

August 16, 2021

THE STORY
What do all the popular roof top tent companies have in common? Everything! All the tents are more or less the same. Roof top tent design has not changed in over 70 years since the first roof top tents were patented in the 1950s.

Isn’t it time for an upgrade? For a bit of a revolution in roof top tent evolution?

Introducing the REV TENT by C6 Outdoor.

Weighing only 25 lbs and featuring a real 4″ mattress, the Rev Tent is a 2 person tent that can be set up on the ground, in the bed of a pick-up truck, and on the roof of a vehicle!

The Rev Tent is only $799 and is ready out of the box to camp on the ground, in the bed of a pick-up and on the roof of vehicles with 84” or longer roof racks by Front Runner, Yakima or Rhino. For campers who want to camp on top of their vehicles in a Rev Tent but have smaller cars, load bars, or small roof racks, an optional Rev Platform is available as an upgrade.

This modular, add what you need, when and if you need it, approach to vehicle roof top camping helps keep the Rev Tent weight and price low.

Because the Rev Tent features a comfortable, real mattress and can be easily moved by one person to set up on the ground, in a pick-up and on the roof of a vehicle, this game changing tent satisfies all types of campers and camping styles. The Rev Tent is quality built and designed for weekend camping as well as end of the world expeditions.

 DEEP DIVE
Who’s up for sleeping directly on the cold, hard ground or on squeaky, leaky air mattresses? Show of hands? No one? You deserve to wake up fresh for any adventure. Whether hitting the trail for a hike or a ride, climbing that rock face, catching a wave, or just chilling with a book and keeping the campfire stoked, give your body a rest and upgrade to a legit night of deep camp sleep on a real mattress in the Rev Tent.

The Rev Tent can be transported to camp destinations in the back of an SUV, in the bed of a pick-up truck, or even in the back of a Tesla. The Rev Tent can also be transported on top of the vehicle, like a traditional Roof Top Tent, but at 5x less weight, on a roof rack, load bars, factory rails, or even attached directly to a vehicle roof.

The Rev Tent is offered in a variety of colors inspired by your favorite camping destinations – desert, surf and forest.

For the brand launch, C6 Outdoor is offering a Limited Edition “Dazzle” colorway, inspired by the camouflage technique used to disguise WW1 Warships and patterns found in nature on Zebras.

For each Rev Tent sold a Mosquito Bed Net is distributed to a human in need to help stop the spread of Malaria. C6 Outdoor believes everyone deserves to sleep well at night!

ABOUT C6 OUTDOOR

THE BRAND
C6 (Carbon) is the basic building block of people, animals, plants, rocks, trees… C6 makes up much of that mountain in the distance, as well as your friend standing next to you. This connection – what binds us to nature and to each other – is C6 Outdoor.

THE FOUNDERS
Having toured Africa by truck on their honeymoon, founders Dave & Tina were no strangers to long road trips and living out of roof top tents when they, from humble beginnings in their garage, built Front Runner Outfitters into one of the most respected and popular vehicle accessory companies for overlanding.

After nearly a decade, they decided to hit pause, step away from the business, and go on an adventure with their kids. They outfitted a Land Rover with the best overlanding gear and from their home in the mountains outside of Los Angeles, set out on a leisurely drive to South America.

Reflecting on a lifetime of roughing it, they were struck by the friendships they made along the way and the ease at which they could connect with very different people over a shared campfire. What started with a spark became an obsession – How to get more people outside, more people traveling & camping, more people connecting.

Dave and Tina decided the straightest line from A to B was to take the roughing it out of roughing it. Enter C6 Outdoor.
