Even in the same kind of class of hardware, a Thule roof-tent is vastly superior for less money.

And! You can move that to your next vehicle when your Cybertruck inevitably disintegrates.

Hey that's not rust that's a lovely brown patina!

When you factor in the roof rack you need to get, most reputable RTT are in that $3k price range.

This requires a cybertruck. And there's a whole class of people that already have crossbars on their cars. I priced out a Thule kit for my wagon and it was about 2400 bucks for the whole kit including the mounting hardware for my roof rails. And it's modular, and will work on any vehicle.
