Fitment: the load math
The Skycamp 3.0 Mini weighs 125 lbs. Here is how it stamps against four example rack dynamic ratings — these are generic rack-spec figures, not numbers for your vehicle. The static column assumes 2 sleepers at 175 lbs each and the commonly cited ~3× static rule of thumb (verify with your rack maker).
| Example dynamic rating | Dynamic (driving) | Static (2 sleepers) |
|---|---|---|
| 100 lbs | Over limit | Over limit |
| 150 lbs | Pass | Over limit |
| 165 lbs | Pass | Caution |
| 220 lbs | Pass | Pass |
Two things govern whether this tent fits your rig: the rack’s dynamic rating and your vehicle’s roof-load figure from the owner’s manual — the lower number wins, and the rack’s own weight counts against it too. Run your real numbers in the load checker, then read your platform guide.
