That's one of the perks, for sure!

For years I've been using a 10'x10' Harbor Freight tarp and two collapsable tent poles. I secure one end of the tarp to my roof rack with bungy cords and then hook the tarp ends over the tent poles. I then use parachute cords to make a triangular arrangement out of each pole and 12" nails. I only put this up if I'm staying someplace for more than a day. Just cobbled it together and it's worked all these years. 🤠

We purchased this tent and really like it. It's simple to put up (I wouldn't have read the instructions if there were some). The best thing is that it allows lots of fresh air to circulate inside while sleeping and makes the sleeping in an SUV feel very roomy. We've been camping during a heavy downfall in summer and it was great. Because the bag is so small I didn't care too much about stuffing a wet tent back in there. When we got home we just hung it up on the clothesline to dry. I hate tent management (lol, putting up and pulling down) but I think this is an exception to that rule.

I have a similar canopy for my minivan. Before opening the liftgate, line up the part that will fit the tailgate when extended. Then open the liftgate slightly, making sure everything lines up while slowly raising the liftgate. Then secure everything.

I just got the same one and found it much easier to install than the Napier. And I was actually able to fit it back in the bag, but it’s tight. I’ll be using it for the next 6 months so hopefully it’ll hold up. Previously I had a Habitent that I loved and dried it off with a chamois before storing. Happy camping everyone!

I thought of getting one of those but the reason I went to camping in my car/minivan was because I didn’t like taking down wet tents and having to dry them out later. Having said that I took a long road trip last year in the summer and the heat really got to me. A tent like this would have helped.

@GrannyontheGo! I did a couple of car camping trips in March/April 2022. I had this tent and 9 inch battery operated box fan. I made a mental note that I would not be doing camping during the summer months cause it would be too hot. Between 11am-5pm I had to turn the fan on high. Maybe would work if I had another fan to pull air in/ other blow out. Yes I kept the tent open plus had all windows on a crack. (Just a thought to share)

I got it for hanging out at the park in the summer. I can't deal with heat or bugs.

I received one of these tents as a gift and have used it multiple times in a variety of conditions. It is brilliant! Have never had any bugs or rain/condensation seeping in. Quick and easy to set up and makes car camping much easier. I just love it

We used a similar tent , 20 plus years ago, on a Dakota truck with a camper shell. It actually provided a nice sleeping experience for 2 adults, during a 2 week car camping excursion. I guess we were ahead of our time.

I got this tent last year and have used it in a variety of conditions and temps, I absolutely love it! I don't tie down the roof, but use a few sets of magnets to keep it secure and to make sure bugs dont sneak in through the sides. I just used it in VERY buggy weather in Vermont and none got in surprisingly.

I've reached that age where I can't sleep comfortably on the ground anymore and can't get up easily, either☹ but didn't like the idea of being confined in the SUV. I spend most of my camp time outdoors, so this looks like the perfect solution. I'd also get some mesh and magnets to create screens for the other windows and that would complete the set up.

@stephanienewton6618

There are insect screens you can get for your windows already made and relatively cheap. I just ordered some!

Have used on on my pickup canopy for years. They are nice for keeping the rain out (important in the Pacific Northwest) yet allowing ventilation.

Excellent video. I never thought much about suv tents, but it seems to be a more functional substitute for an awning. You can prop up the awning with telescoping poles and you'd have a great outdoor space, in addition to the mesh net cover for the suv. Thanks for trying it out. BTW, you wouldn't need this if you are constantly on the move. But airiness and shade make life a lot easier on your day off after hiking 15 miles two days in a row.

Try setting up the tent with the hatch closed initially then open when all pieces of the tent are secure... Also would be a good idea to unzip the tent so it doesn't rip in the case the hatch is too big for it. Nice work. Enjoy!

Agree, it's better to close the back of the tent.

What you have is an extension to your sleeping area, called an "enclosure". What these enclosures do is allow you to extend your sleeping area to the outdoors, sit in your sleeping area and look outside. These enclosures are nice in the beginning, but the novelity can wear off real quick. Kind of restrictive for any other purpose and movement is very limited. The main thought behind these things area - for a one night stay, without setting up a tent, and no other privacy issues to deal with, they're great.

Thank you, you’re wonderful at showing us all your experiences.

I like car camping with three small tents. A beater tent so you can save your camp spot when going to town, at least a three person tent to put stuff in and possible stay in over night, and a shower tent to use as a computer room.

I use one of these on my overnight kayak trips, and it works really well for a quick one night stop over. And worked well in heavy rain. 👍

Glad you did this review. I've been looking at these for a couple years but as yet haven't selected which one to begin with. Used tents and tarps. The Airbed gave out in the Great Basin this past Nov and ended up on closed cell insulated pads, .75" each so I had 1.5 inches of insulation and padding. Worked great and i didn't miss the wind shaking the fabric. I haven't replaced thr airbed yet... It would be great if manufacturers began sending you these to review. I dunno if you want a ton of tents to store but... Back in SE and it's skeeter country. Ugh. Great fishing but the skeeters....

Can see the functionality of it, works like a big screen door for the back of an SUV. Seems like it would work well in the summer for ventilation and air flow. The question that comes to mind is when it rains what is there to prevent the rain water falling on the roof of the car from flowing down into the back into the car. Thanks Triston for showing this to us had never seen this before, worth considering for hot summer conditions.

YES, I'd love to see the tent set up! Great vid.

Pleased to see this review 👍🏼 for sleeping in car, in the non-storm/deluge, I think these are a good option, especially for air flow, and insect proofing during the warmer evenings. Quick and easier for the traveller, who needs to pull over for the short term, overnight stop over or resting/sleep.

Thank you for doing this video. I’ve been looking at them for my minivan. I’d love one of the bigger ones to use for changing and privacy, and being able to disconnect to drive away, but I am concerned about being able to put it up by myself. I’d love to see you do a video on one of the bigger ones.

Been thinking about getting one of these on and off the past couple years. I think I'll finally pull the trigger on this. Gonna order it come June :) Thanks for the vid review! I also have hiking gears so I intend to use the two hiking poles I have to help lift the end of the awning up a little more. Seem like plenty of room to set a camp chair and a cooler (I uses it as a table) underneath and just enjoy the scenery with. I suspect the tent will pack far far better if you zipped up the awning first before rolling it up. As for the condensation, I have a small microfiber towel that I dedicated just for tents when traveling and found it to not be that much of a hassle. Seem like it would be even less of a hassle with this setup since there's nothing touching the ground thus no need to wipe the dirts off too. Just a lil quick wipe of the top before packing then hang the lil towel inside to dry off while driving off.

I had one of these kind of tents I thought would be a good thing to have. Boy was I wrong. Mine was the kind that gave more floor space to place a cot or a cook stove on a table. The thing had a butt load of tent pegs and hooks and straps...then after I had it set up the next day I found I needed to go into town and I looked at this thing attached to my car. The first rain storm I got flooded out, it collected over 20 gallons of water and Everything inside was soaked. All in all the thing was a pain in the ass.

Yes, always attach guy lines to all attach points on your tents, and bring enough stakes for them. There are also innovative ways to tie off to rocks and things, if the ground isn’t right for your stakes. It is important to have the ability to fully guy out the tent for comfort and safety. Ventilation is your friend.

I really like this! Nice review!

I love my suv tent! I have a (tiny) Subaru Cross Trek and I am 5'10" so the extra room is wonderful.

I have the Napier Soorts Cove. I set it up by myself, before finding the instructions. Love the concept, just haven't had a chance to use it. Debated getting one for a long time, then saw a video of a couple who love theirs. Thanks for sharing this, as I got some pointers in the comments!!

Thank you for sharing. It looks like it would be good for dry climates and warmer weather.

This was so helpful! Thanks for sharing!

Enjoyed this, and would definitely like an update some time. I'm testing out the Napier Sportz Cove soon. One important issue is the composition of the fabric. It determines whether water will be completely blocked or just resisted. You don't want water seeping through the main fabric in heavy rain, sealed seams or not. Also good to know: the grade of zipper. You can tell a lot by look and feel of course, but it's good to know the basic materials of tents. No pulls on the ties is another sign of cheapness.

I think this was a great video. Very nicely done. All the best to you.

The little creek makes soothing sleeping sounds!😊

I just bought this SUV tent to take with me car camping this summer. While I have not taken it out overnight camping yet, I have taken it to nature areas and parks to hang out in after hiking, paddle boarding etc. It is a fun way to relax before heading home. I am enjoying it so far and get curios looks . I think others would like to kick back before heading home too,, BTW I have yet to fit back into the original bag it came in LOL .

this helps alot. i don't know what they call a large suv a large one and the smaller version but this gives people ventilation as you said and options are out there. thanks.

I have a pretty large SUV tent ⛺️ It has a particular use as a “base camp” for longer stays. I wouldn’t set it up for stays less than 3 days/nights. It allows me to have a full kitchen and living space that’s out of the weather and I can close up the the tailgate and glass at night for a secure “bedroom.” Packs down pretty well; I keep it in my rooftop cargo box.

That was fun. I’ve wondered about sort of tent sort of attachment. I have a tent and a pop up screen tent which I have used in Bandelier a couple of times. I have never slept in my Forester so far. I sold my T@B and van. But have all the stuff to eat, sleep and enjoy being outside with.

We like to camp in the back of our van, and we have the Napier version of this. I bought it on sale. It adds only a tiny bit of extra room, but a lot of ventilation. The canopy is really handy as shelter in light rain. Easy to put on and off, after the first time, and once you've figured which way is up, and so forth. Just as you said, depending on the time of year, it's a handy thing.

I have a travel trailer i pull with my 2002 yukon and I discovered your channel and decided to take a trip to Florida from Delaware over thanksgiving week and suv camp, I bought a bluetti for power and 12v refrigerator and I know exactly what you mean about arriving to camp and no set required; you opened a new world for me of course it's not something I would do in the summer as it's so stinking hot and humid here but other season's it's wonderful , i've never did any tent camping just started camping as a whole about 6 years ago and i'm almost 60. It takes about 1-2 hours to set up trailer when I get to camp and I only have to pull out chair when in my suv, it's great. I think I might get one of those tents for more ventilation for the shoulder months just have to figure out how to keep the dogs inside:) Oh one more thing don't forget to turn off your dome light as I left my hatch window open during the day and didn't realize the inside lights were on because it was sunny out and depleted my battery.

I believe if you take a few minutes to spray tent 💦 repellent that would be most beneficial for seepage avoidance. Might want to tie the top area down more securely so rain won’t trickle down from rooftop.

Looks like the tent was very adjustable for being generic, especially given the price. You were able to make it fit your Suburban pretty well. Nice review.

I've seen these around for awhile and have never pulled the trigger on one. I agree with your general take that its just one more thing to futz with setting up. The reason I SUV camp rather than tent camp is so I can just pull over at the end of the day and be instantly ready to sleep. This kind of kills that flexibility. I also move sites every day (mostly) and I think I'd get annoyed setting this up and taking it down over and over. I have a 30 second rule of thumb, that generally speaking, if something takes more than 30 seconds to set up, I notice I don't tend to use it every day. Sometimes that's fine if its not something I need every day, I don't need daily showers or to cook an elaborate hot meal daily, so a little more setup and takedown is tolerable. But if its something I'm using daily like my bed, I want it to be maximally convenient. It needs to set up and break down with a minimum of fuss. I've noticed if I don't proactively plan for convenience, for me it becomes too tempting to occasionally opt out of camping and grab a hotel room during a long road trip, which kills your budget and makes it less likely you'll take frequent trips. My goal is to make car camping significantly more convenient than getting a hotel so I never get tempted Anyway, no judgement on people who settle in to a campsite for a few days and are willing to invest a little time to have an extra nice and roomy setup. It really boils down to camp style and knowing yourself and what works for you

The canvas breaths much better! I haven't had condensation. I highly recommend Kodiak and Springbar canvas tents for the times you are staying in one base camp for a few nights.

I liked seeing this. I just bought one made a little different. So this was great to see.mine should be here in 4 days.

I camp in my minivan with a separate shelter for eating/cooking or relaxing in a chair (taking a nap!). These items have not appealed to me but I see how it can give the inside of the vehicle a lot of fresh air and openness. For hot summer nights it may be an advantage. So 4 or 5 minutes for setting or striking the shelter by yourself is not a problem, also the flapping of canvas, the pitter patter of rain or some wind is a campsite lullaby for me. The next question is what can you get at the high price range when your purchase will have greater expectations.

I'm so glad that you did this demonstration for us. I don't think I could have slept with that though in Idaho since it is bear country

I’ve just received mine today and set it up easily. I’m currently driving across Australia in my VW Polo and want this for those overnight stays on the road. Tks for the video. It really helped. I’m looking at the additional add on ‘room’, so I would love to see that demonstrated. Cheers.

I got one of the type that’s an enclosed tent behind my SUV. I discovered that I can’t open or close my tailgate from inside either of the vehicles I camp in. I go in and out through the side door of my vehicle, I only use the back gate for loading or unloading. The particular tent I got has a very high threshold that I tripped over several times, and I fell out of the tent twice, once right on my face. Partly it was due to the angle of the tent with poor visibility as I was carrying something. I ended up selling it to a couple who were very happy with it.
