Tuff Stuff Alpine 51 Installation Instructions

Mounting Tent

  1. Mounting your tent requires a minimum of 2 people for lifting. 
  2. Position the tent on top of the vehicle's roof rack, bed rack, or trailer, and center it to your liking. If you have a hatchback make sure you have clearance to open the back.
  3. Using the supplied hardware and mounting plates, slide the hardware into the channel so there are 2 bolts per corner (one in front and one behind the vehicle's crossbars)
  4. Run the bolts through the holes of the mounting brackets, and thread nuts onto each bolt.
  5. Confirm you are happy with the position of the tent, vehicle balance, and appearance then tighten all nuts to the brackets until the tent cannot move.

The Wedge

  1. Locate the 2 latches at the rear of the tent.
  2. Pull each red latch upward releasing its tension, then unhook the latch from the hook.
  3. Push up on the handles and the tent will rise into a wedge shape on its own.
  4. Locate the elastic cinch strap and pull it upward into the T-slot for storage.
  5. Attach your ladder at the desired entry point. For detailed ladder instructions, see Alpine Ladder Instructions.
  6. Unzip the screen and fabric covers, rolling them up and securing them with the storage clips.
  7. Deploy the included window awnings (see Window Awning Instructions) and Shoe Bags (see Shoe Bag Instructions).
  8. Climb into your tent in its wedge form and it’s ready to use.

The Pop-Up

  1. Once your Alpine is in its wedge form, locate the 2 latches at the front of the tent and unlatch them from the frame of the tent.
  2. Push up on the handles to transform the Alpine 51 from a wedge to a full pop-up.
  3. Locate the elastic cinch strap and pull it downward into the T-Slot for storage.
  4. Unzip all the window covers to create a full screen room, rolling up each fabric cover and securing with the storage clips.
  5. Zip up all the fabric window covers to create a full dark room.

LOVE the absolute universe
Format: Paperback
If you have heard of DC's Absolute Universe, this is a great starting point. The art, the storytelling, and the new revision is all a blast to read. I highly recommend this and all the others in the absolute series.

Super good
Format: Paperback
This was my introduction to the absolute dc comics and boy did it make a good first impression. The art style is great and the writing too, it’s fast paced in the current sections and slower in the flashbacks making sure the pacing is good throughout the whole book. The length is good for how much you pay being able to be finished in 30 minutes to an hour for fast readers.

Just as enjoyable as Vol 1, if not better.
Batman and Robin Vol 2: Batman vs. Robin contains Batman and Robin #7-12. Just as in Vol 1, the art is all done by Frank Quitely and is very enjoyable. This continues the story of Batman and Robin Vol 1 which raps up in Vol 3 and is my favorite instalment of the trilogy (if you want to call it that). The story has some twists and turns and the reveal at the end is totally worth it, especially since there are clues dropped along the way. As I have said in my other reviews, this is part of the Grant Morrison Arc that will be detailed below, but the Batman and Robin trilogy could be read alone outside of the other stories. This picks up from Vol 1 after the events of Batman: R.I.P. and Battle for the Cowl. Again these are my favorite B&R as the dynamic between the two is very enjoyable to read and watch and the story is engaging. Pros: -B&R are amazing -Art is solid -New characters are fantastic -Original story line -So many little clues as to what is going on -Grant Morrison Cons: -Grant Morrison -Relatively Short -Vol 3 (see review) *Morrison's Story Arc is as follows: Batman and Son (Included in Black Glove Deluxe Edition) Batman: The Black Glove Batman: RIP Batman: Batman and Time (or Final Crisis but still needs 701 and 702) Batman and Robin Volume 1-3 Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne (Technically happens during Batman and Robin Volumes 1 and 2) Batman Incorporated (and Leviathan Strikes) Batman Incorporated Vol 1: Demon Star (New 52) Batman Incorporated Vol 2: Gotham's Most Wanted (New 52) A readers guide to Grant Morrison's Batman is a great help if you are looking at the whole series.

An Excellent Continuation For The New Dynamic Duo
I really loved Batman and Robin Volume 1. This arc is my favorite part of the Morrison Batman run, even though I really struggle with and don't enjoy everything that comes before it. But it's worth it for this duo of Dick Grayson and Damian Wayne. Volume 2 gets off to a slow start with a few issues about a deranged Batman resurrected by a Lazarus pit. Readers who haven't read Morrison's other work, including Final Crisis, will be confused by what occurs here. But the gist is that Dick and Damian learn what the readers already knew, that the corpse they thought was their father wasn't his (instead a failed clone from a Darkseid experiment), and that their father is out there somewhere. The art in these initial issues is also a bit rough and lower in quality, which is the only reason I brought this down to 4 stars. The second story in the remainder of the volume though, that pits Damian against Dick and tests Damian's loyalties is a great continuation of the Batman and Robin story and might be one of the best parts of the series. Damian may be rude and sociopathic, but this arc gets to let him shine a bit and show that he really does care about his big "brother" Dick Grayson, and about his father's legacy. As a bonus, there is a running mystery about the duo's new ally Oberon Sexton, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I won't spoil the ending, but it's a truly fun reveal that makes you rethink Sexton's role in the adventure in an interesting way. Again, this is a great story for Batman/Dick Grayson/Damian Wayne fans that I strongly recommend.

Not Perfect, But Loved It Anyway!
Format: Hardcover
The cover and title of this collection are slightly misleading, but it's still a fantastic read. Robin isn't willingly trying to kill Batman, however, I'll let you find out what's really happening yourself. I love the new Batman and Robin team of Dick Grayson and Damian Wayne. It's a fun change of pace to have a more lighthearted Batman, and a bratty and brooding Robin. This is the second collection of the new Batman and Robin series, but I still enjoyed it without having previously read all of the first volume. The Highlights: Batwoman, a zombie Batman, Talia al Guhl, Slade Wilson, the mysterious Mr. Sexton, the history of the Wayne family, and the beginning of a Joker story line. The new flying Batmobile is awesome. I love Grant Morrison's writing, and here he writes a fun and interesting Batman adventure. Things to Consider:There are two different artists in this volume. The first half is decent, and the second half is more unique with some great pen and ink work. I enjoyed the second part a lot, but it's not quite the classic super hero style art you might expect. This may not be a groundbreaking story, but this series is great. So if you're interested in Batman and Robin, you won't regret checking this out.
