Nice! Good looking tent!
Wow! This is getting crazier (in the best possible sense) by the day! It seems that your rack must be a custom fabrication, and I hope I can trouble you to post a sketch or photo of the rack design, and also how you attach it to your OEM roof rack. Those Tepui tents are really nice.

I get around 21-22mpg with my 2.5 cvt OB towing our 4x6 trailer loaded its probably around 1400lbs max empty its just shy of 900lbs. Granted with the yellow topped Costco bins on the trailer our profile on the trailer is below the roof line on the OB. No bins and the top of the trailer sits even with the bottom of the rear window glass on the hatch. Were headed out again for two nights next week. Probably the last camping trip for us this summer. But we did 4 trips starting in April! YAY!!!

oem rack? I ditched that.
this one bolts to the tie down points. MUCH stronger and secure. if you look up costa fabrications on facebook, he has some pics of the rack off the car in the grass

Costa Fabrications (plural) add an S. on facebook. If you look up with no s at the end it will lead you to a father and son team that builds grills and smokers in texas .lol

welding every single edge of the expanded steel, then wire wheel, then flapper wheel. Since im powdercoating, should flow in well.
The devil is in the details i truly believe. Small things like this set it apart from off the shelf things.

Just found this thread (Thanks Jalopnik!) and that is one of the most amazing Subaru expedition vehicles I've ever seen. Bad ***. Do you mind elaborating on your suspension modifications a bit? I didn't see much about that (pictures-wise) in the thread.

iSight still working correctly?
Unrelated to the choice of Outback over Forester, I'm curious if your lift has effected the functioning of your iSight.
I was told by my dealer that the geometry of the car is programmed, so any changes may alter it's ability to detect distance correctly.
BTW, I love what you're doing with your car

Not sure who was first, but you're definitely taking yours farther. http://indefinitelywild.gizmodo.com...u-outback-into-a-real-adventuremob-1716068985
Seems like the outback is really starting to get the attention it deserves.
