Oztent RV1 Canvas Touring Tent

G'day Maureen,

If you don't use the front awning then you'd be looking at about 8 pegs at a minimum to ensure that the tent was secure with guy ropes in place. If you're also setting up the front awning that will add another two pegs for the guy ropes at the front of the awning. Hopefully that will suit your abilities.

G'day Shirley,

A double stretcher will take up the whole sleeping area of the tent and would be very awkward to set up in the RV1. A single stretcher in any brand should fit - check out the dimensions of each of them and compare them to the 150L x 215W sleeping area of the RV1. You can find our range of Stretchers HERE.

G'day Brom,

No, theyre not.  The RV-1 Side Panels are specific to that model, and can be found here.

G'day James,

Theoretically, you could put a double self-inflating mattress in the RV1 Tent but you wouldn't be able to fit anything else inside it. The back of the tent does slope down significantly so the canvas may touch on the mattress at the back. We'd suggest considering one of the larger models if there is going to be more than 1 person in the tent and you're wanting a bit of space for gear etc. 

G'day Michael,

Yes, you should be able to carry the Oztent RV-1 on the roof racks of your Suzuki Swift. You'll need to make sure that the tent doesn't exceed the roof load rating though, so just make sure to double check that. 

G'day Andrew,

We're not aware of any new model of the Oztent RV1 Canvas Touring Tent coming out any time soon. Sometimes it can be the safe often to go for the tried and tested model anyway. That way you know for sure there are no teething problems that you might experience with a new model. 

G’day Julie,

Yes they are indeed, you can have a look at them here (just select RV1 size from the dropdown). The awning on the RV1 is a little different to the 2,3,4, and 5 so it can be a little confusing.

So I’ve confirmed with Oztent on the phone, and the RV1 tent comes with 2 x 1.9m telescopic poles, and the RV1 Side Panels come with 2 x 2.2m poles – so the peak of the side awning is 2.2m high, and the front is 1.9m on the RV1 Tent.
