Discovery XXL
ROOFTOP TENT
INTRODUCING THE JAMES BAROUD
Discovery XXL Rooftop Tent
With all of the same features as the Discovery, the XXL version adds extra width and length for more internal volume. The 65×89-inch mattress spans the entire floor providing enough real estate to accommodate three adults. Like its smaller sibling, the single-sided hinge and wedge-shaped architecture make it quick to set up or take down. Unlatching the two side buckles lets the gas-assist struts elevate the upper shell. Setup takes as little as two minutes including the installation of the telescoping ladder.
The Discovery XXL’s dual doors and large wrap-around windows provide 270-degree views to let in extra light. A rear panel creates a convenient portal through which to pass gear from the back gate of the vehicle. Mesh backing on the window panels keep bugs out while inviting a cooling cross breeze. The sloped roofline creates a tall internal peak height of 51-inches which is perfect for taller users requiring extra headroom.

A Hard Shell To Beat
Made of fiberglass-reinforced polyester, the low-profile hull is aerodynamically shaped for optimal fuel efficiency. A rear aileron and external ribs help direct air over the shell to reduce wind noise at highway speeds. Dust-proof ventilation ports on either side expel moisture from within the closed tent to help mitigate the buildup of mildew. The shell is available in white, grey, or black gel-coat colors.
Canvas
Class Leading Strength
A hallmark of every James Baroud tent is the proprietary canvas. The aluminized polyester fabric is coated with an acrylic layer to yield unrivaled storm worthiness, durability, UV-resistance, and breathability. In warm temperatures the canvas reflects solar heat to help maintain a cool and comfortable internal temperature. For use in cold weather, an optional Isothermic liner bolsters warmth and helps reduce condensation. Like all of their tents, the Discovery XXL was tested to wind speeds of 60mph. Even in a howling gale, the fabric walls remain taut with no buffeting to disturb a good night’s sleep.

Rugged Yet Comfortable
Inside the tent a 3-inch thick mattress is wrapped in a soft, removable cover for maximum comfort. The refined ergonomics extend to the rounded ladder rungs designed for use with bare feet. Ma-chined aluminum attachment points on both sides of the hull ensure the ladder remains locked securely in place.

The Discovery XXL includes a detachable LED internal light, storage pockets, a cargo net, and a solar-powered ventilation fan to help move air through the tent in extreme conditions. The fan is silent with an internal battery providing up to 24 hours of power.
Beneath the hull, two aluminum tracks mount the tent to any standard rack system and permit a wide range of adjustment to ensure proper positioning. Galvanized mounting hardware defends against rust and corrosion.
Built To Last
Built to James Baroud’s uncompromising standards, the Discovery XXL’s large-gauge zippers, double-stitched seams, and durable mesh panels ensure years of hard use. Certified by Germany’s Tüv Rheinland organization, it is backed by an industry leading 5-year warranty. For users in need of extra headroom, length, and width in a simplified package, the Discovery XXL is an excellent choice.
