Hi jrnymn7,
Folks usually give up tilting after seven times doing so.
Since there is a lot of roof space add an extra panel or two and forgo the tilt. The savings from not having a tilt may pay for about one extra panel.
Permanent mounting on the roof pretty much eliminates the "five finger discount".
A fixed installation also means that any trip will start with a bursting full battery bank.
Having portable panels is almost, from my point of view, like tent camping. You have to put them up, and take them down. In my case, I jump into the driver's seat, turn on the key, and leave.
