You could always mount it wide. It will overhang but it'll be within the width of the rear fenders by about 1.5". Just realize this would cover up your tailgate when the tent is open.
That's a really good call actually. Might do that instead of a rear overhang for now. Really on the fence about mounting until I receive it. Not planning any Winter camping so not much time left anyway to use it.

Maybe you should plan some winter camping. They have an insulation kit that's incredibly cheap.

Nah, I've done enough snow removal I'll take a hard pass. 😂 Just downright brutal in the Winter here in the Colorado mountains.

Received my shipping confirmation for the Pioneer XL this afternoon 👌

I’m going to wait until I actually have my hands on this thing to buy the rack to mount it.

Don't trust this stuff. The metalurgical breakdown is incorrect and its load value is far under stated value. Ran testing in our lab to use this for load testing applications on light end material since it's cheap and we could easily pick it up pretty much anywhere. It bows around 240 pounds and permanently bends around 600 pounds. Mind you this is on a moving vehicle so values trusted should be cut in half as it's an unsprung weight. It might have worked for you, but it's a disaster weighting (sorry) to happen.
Thanks for the knowledge. My OVS cargo bars for the canopy should arrive early next week. They were on back order.

Mine’s made its way south from Salt Lake to a hub in southern Nevada. Should have it by Monday or Tuesday I think.

Hmmm. I ordered one too just a while ago

I was expecting it to be the color shown in the image. Not green/brown.
That’s a bummer.
Mines kind of a blue flannel on the inside and grey on the outside.

Does the Pioneer come with a vinyl travel cover?
I see they sell them separately on the web site. I have an 87" on the way, but do I'm adding the comfort bag and now wondering if it needs the travel cover?

I don’t have mine yet but I do believe they do. That’s the “softshell” in the name.

I think the description says “replacement” does it not?

I’m under the impression for a tent that was almost $3,000 originally it better make me breakfast in the morning too.
