How we checked
The official Smittybilt product page (Part #2583, Gen2 Overlander Standard, Gray) confirms this exact model with an MSRP of $1,499.99 and states the closed size (47"W x 55"L x 11.5"H), open size (95"W x 56"L x 51"H), Full 92"x55" bed, "Max load rating 660lbs/300kg", and "600d heavy-duty rip stop polyester" body. The Off Road Tents retailer page corroborates the same SKU 2583 at $1,497.00, explicitly calls it a "softshell roof top tent" rated for "three adults," and shows the annex is a separate $320 add-on (not included in the base tent). Both pages agree on the load rating, fabric, and bed/open dimensions, confirming model identity; neither page lists a mattress thickness or tent weight, so those are left blank.
