I'm not a huge person, so I'd probably get by more than fine with a 2 person Tepui.
I think the Hybox is probably the best fit for my needs. You stay well within the near normal footprint, which is my primary concern.
I did come across the Raptor OFFGRID Voyager which is a lot smaller investment into hardware while I try out the idea of a rooftop tent. It looks quite easy to set up as a single person.
I think either of these should work with a standard Yakima/Thule bar system with my 2008 Forester. It looks like the standard roof rack load is ~150-175lbs, and both of those fall within that weight range.
Sure the hard top is sexy, but if I don't know if I can rationalize $3000 on a tent.
