I got so excited, I pitched a tent!
I finally fot around to it. The initial setup takes a few, but now all the straps are adjusted, and I have the technique down so setup is around 10 minutes. I'm still tweaking straps, but now I can't wait to use it!!

Nice!
That'd be fun to drive down the road like that, having the party in the back!

I don't even want to think what would happen if I told my bride that was our new camper...

Be careful with the straps around the paint. The paint as you know is somewhat thin and fragile.....

I'll try to this week, sorry about that. This tent leaves the bed open. This gives you greater options as to how you want to set up the inside. you can literally configure it how you want. You can put an air mattress in, or put cots in etc...

In my case I bought a truck tent to save about $1700 on the cost of a topper after tax. I want to apply my savings to a trailer in the next year ago.....
