Camp-right Adventure Truck Tent
I got my tent today, and I think it looks pretty sweet.
Plus, It isn't all that hard to put up by yourself. Either way, judge it for yourself. Also...this is my 08 Scab. http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v5...t=SANY0001.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...N/SANY0003.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...N/SANY0008.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...N/SANY0001.jpg http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v5...t=SANY0003.jpg |
Looks good!

Thanks.
There is only one downside with the newer trucks and this style of tent. The easy-lift tailgate can lift while tightening the straps down. Other than that, this thing is awesome. Plus if I bend my head to the side, i can stand straight up in it. I'm 5'9". Not bad for a tent! |
Looks cool, You going to use a air mattress in the box with it?
Also does it scratch the paint at all? |
It looks roomy. Cool idea and you don't have to worry about sleeping on rocks!
|
I have an 8" inflatable air mattress that wraps around the wheel wells.
And I don't know if it scratches. They claim that it doesn't, but once I take it off, I shall see if there are any marks left. I just waxed the truck yesterday, so any marks will be easily noticeable. |

Truck-Bedz Expedition Air Mattress - Standard Box from REI.com BTW...Sharp looking truck!...got myself a black one too...cant beat a clean black truck:) I waxed mine last week myself buy after a few trips to the rock quarry you can't even tell!:-X05 |
It's exactly like that mattress.
And you can never beat a clean black truck. I've owned this beauty for a month now, and I've loved every minute of it. And thank you. |
I forgot to mention, I just took the tent down after having it up for 5 hours in some light wind.
Not a scratch, mark, or blemish of any kind. Just a hand print from me. I think I'm going to love this thing. Plus, for $179 plus shipping....not a bad price for a tent at all. |
Pretty cool! Wish I'd had one of those when I was sleeping on rocks with my son's Boy Scout troop! Wonder if you could rig up, or do they make, something that would fill in the sides and rear of a hardshell tonneau cover, like the old Westfalia (spelling) VW vans??? Also would have killed for that air mattress. Those things have really come of age in the last 3-5 years. Before that "air mattress" was something you floated on in the pool or lake!
Cool, very cool, and a mighty fine looking truck too! Enjoy! |
I'm not sure if they make one for that, but it would be something to look into.
And This system is much better than what I used to use. Before this tent and mattress, I used a tarp. With one of those blue camping mats for flooring. When I bought this truck, I knew I wasn't going to be throwing a tarp and some bungee cords on it. And thanks again. :) |
cool, if that tents a rockin dont come a knockin
|
Get a Bed Rug in the bed and you are all set!!!!
|
that tent does look pretty cool and might be a tad more comfortable than my way.
call me a hick, but 8 tent stakes, some rope and a $8 tarp works wonders. I'm after cheap and effective myself.
