Its a continuing mystery to me why people want these vehicle-integrated tents. If you want to go into town for a burrito, you have to break down your camp. If parking is only by the road that’s where you sleep. If parking isn’t level you aren’t sleeping level. Your tent is exposed to road dirt and water all the time. They are way more expensive than a regular tent. They are locked in to one vehicle. They make your gas mileage worse. They are hard to install and remove.
If you could have HVAC in the tent then ok. But sounds like that isn’t a thing here either.
Well I have a hard shell RTT (Autohome) that I love. Gets me off of the ground on a memory foam mattress and it’s well insulated. Very little hit to mileage. I’ve used it on my Jeep Rubicon and now on my Rivian R1S. Takes less than 2 minutes to pop up and I don’t have to worry about wild animals (I camp in bear/mountain lion territory).
But I agree this thing is ridiculous. I read someone else called it a Cyberdiaper lol.
