There’s no point in driving around with your roofrack/ rooftop tent if you’re not on holiday. Save fuel (and wear & tear) by installing a Fredlin hoist. This proudly South African product solves the problem of where to store your roofrack/ rooftop tent, canopy, or even a sports car hardtop: up and out of the way! The Fredlin hoist fastens securely to your garage roof or carport, is easily installed and can be operated by one person.

This was at a recent 4×4 day at Sandwani north of Pretoria. The picture shows the enormous  campfire “licking the clouds” as the sun set over the South Africa bushveld.
