Truck Bed Tent

Been using this tent for over a year. It fits the Gladiator bed quite well. It is a bit snug at the very back, but the Gladiator is very square so it's understandable. An extra inch of width would give it a little slack, which would be nice. But it works. We've camped in some high wind situations and the tent held up just fine. Good venting, has done fine in rain also. Very easy to set up and take down (it gets a little easier with use; the first few times getting the rods into their respective pockets took some effort). Very happy with the tent so far.

This is from Alabama, where we tend to have more ice issues than snow. We may make the milk industry a ton of money every time snow is mentioned, but the ice is the problem. I was caught out in the past, unable to get home for days and with the same threat looming recently (today), I decided to prepare as best I could on a small budget. This tent fit the needs I had. If I had gear in my truck bed, I didn't want to unload everything first. I just wanted to set up the tent and be covered. That was the main focus. Digging through Amazon, this was one of the few options available. Reviews were solid and, in hindsight, generally accurate. My first experience with the tent is under the conditions I bought it for. I set this up, first time, in the wind and rain and sleet. Lessons learned, but actually really easy to accomplish. I probably looked like an idiot in my driveway, but best kind of practice is real world so I did it. Thankfully, this was not me being stuck away from home though. Set up was rather easy. Do the tailgate. Snug up the front. Come back and do the interior straps (important!). Then snug up the other straps. Run the poles. Done. The straps make setting up in the wind easy, just use the wind to your advantage. This first run took probably 15 minutes. Aside from hooking this to your truck, it's just like any other dome tent you are likely familiar with already. I'm sitting in it now, the wind is whipping up to some decent gusts pretty frequently. It's raining still, just as hard as it was during set up. No water coming through, no real breeze makes it in to the tent aside from through the bed rail where my truck has holes behind the stake pockets. Big gusts will let some wind in from there but it's really nothing. Probably a good thing since I am also running a buddy heater in here, give some ventilation. The frame holds up to the wind very well, but the fabric is a bit loose so it whips around a good bit, mostly in the tailgate area. I figure it's a one size fits most issue and I will look to see how I can fix that going forward. I did set it up under crappy conditions so I may have missed something. Headroom is great. At the peak, there is more than any topper will give you, except maybe a highboy. Makes for a comfortable sitting position, even almost to the sides of the bed. The tailgate being down gives you that much more room in this thing. Excellent design. I'm happy with the purchase. It is evident that this not a wholly Chinese endeavor. The instructions are clear and well written. The quality is really top notch. Fitment is good. Price was right and worth spending a few extra dollars. For my 2015 Silverado 1500, the 6.5 version is a great fit. If you are on the fence, rest assured this is a great option.

It has withstood a small wind and a good rain storm. I have to say this has been one of my best Amazon purchases of all time. It fits the Chevrolet Colorado very well. You will have to jimmy rig the tent to sit up good and taunt. If you don't the front door may concave and collect rain water. The tent has 4 small windows, just big enough to let the air/wind circulate, and on the top center so you can see the night sky. Some bugs may get in because the tent does not cover completely around the tailgate but it gets the job done for everything else. This tent is so easy to setup, and take down. The poncho was a huge help during the wind and rain storm, but of course it blocked the windows and air flow. That is where the tent not covering the tailgate 100% came in handy, all that wind was still able to circulate through the tent. A little rain water was still leaking through the zipper on the door but no huge issue for me.

Setup: Mostly painless, took about 25 minutes detailed reading instructions and about 15-20 a few weeks later with much less reading. Some awkwardness of the fit but getting everything into place isn't too bad. Things definitely stretched out after I put the poles up the first time which helped. Good instructions sewn right into the bag, very helpful! Function: No floor was a must for me, it fits over my DIY platform perfectly. Spacious even with said platform. Plenty of vents; on a hot day (I tried it at 98 degrees) I would absolutely want a fan or similar still Retains the tailgate space quite well, the third pole holds the door up out of the way. Water proofing: Excellent. I blasted it from several angles with a hose the first time and got it up ahead of a pretty nice thunderstorm the second time and didn't see anything get wet. My only minor complaints: I really thought I was gonna break a pole or tear a seam the first time I put it up. Once it stretched out second time was fine; be cautious! I heard many creaks and had very minor splintering on one end of a pole section The rain fly is very difficult for one person to put on. I don't blame them and it's the nature of such a tall tent but I was wishing I was 9' tall trying to wrangle it over the peak. Haven't beat it up yet so I can't comment on material quality as a whole.

Es ging einfach und schnell das Zelt aufzubauen. Bei Wind ist es sehr standfest.

Works great for me. No complaints. I put this on an Australian Ford Ute which its not designed for but the size was in the same range. Worked fine.

Nice product. Fit was good for the Ford Ranger it was used on, and pretty easy to install and take down. Comes with a storage bag that packs everything nicely away when done. Great add-on for any pick-up that turns your truck-bed into a comfortable campsite without much fuss. Just don't forget to buy a pad(s) for your truck-bed to sleep on! * For those wondering whether this will work with a hard multi-panel tonneau cover, it does. The only drawback is that you have to leave the last panel of your tonneau cover folded down. At first, I thought this would be a problem, but I ended-up liking the result as the folded-down panel made a useful shelf in the tent (feet still fit underneath to sleep, head facing the tailgate).

This is perfect, it was easy to set up and holds perfect still needs to try for camping and will review later, make sure when you put the strap to leave it loose till everything in its place then tighten them
