Truck Camping Photo Thread

Awesome, what ever it is?

 

of course it wont but it looks like it would topple over.

 

What is awesome, is all that crap, minus the coolers, all fit in the trailer. That thing really holds a lot of stuff. I absolutely love it.

 

I watched this entire video and looked up and down their website and there is nothing showing how to get in and out of this? I really like the design and quality of the materials. I can only imagine you have to remove a tent bed panel to get out through the truck bed? That would be lame IMO.

 

Most all of the popups work by getting in through the bed. However you could easily add an aluminum expanding ladder to this one and get in from the back.

 

For $5k plus it should come with a ladder.

 

Not when the intended way to enter is through the truck bed.

Okay, so the door is just for looks?
I like that this has a rack option that can carry up to 500lbs, very cool design. Just trying to figure out best way to climb in and out when nature calls and I don't want the DW to have to move to take sleeping panel out to climb through the bed. A ladder along the door opening doesn't look like it would work very well. ?
Be nice if the manufacture is following this thread and could add some insight.

 

Just ordered one of these small waterproof tent tarps (4' 3" x 6' 11") to use as a quick and easy shelter straight off the back of my truck when I sleep back there. I'll attach the short edge to my back 54" (I cut them down from 58") Yakima round bar using two of those short bungee /knob thingies. I already have two older LL Bean tarp poles to use on the other end. Should be a quick & easy set up.

Got out this weekend with the wife and an ex-taco owner @Ttaco15 , he went to a ZR2.

Was an absolute blast

 

Let us know how well it packs up and how well you like it. I hate packing the huge tarp in a container. This would be idea if it packs away this easily.

 

Will do!

Posted this in the camping and backpacking thread too. I think this is a new addition to Kelty's tarp/shelter line up. It's pretty expensive at $200. Barely missed it at $116 on Amazon. Since it is new there aren't any reviews yet that I could find. The Noah's Tarp has served me well so hopefully there will be some reviews of this one in the near future.

 

Beautiful country up there, great video's!

 

$200 is well worth a product in the Noah’s Tarp line I have a 9x9 and 12x12 and love them! Kelly makes most of my backpacking gear.

Also didn’t know about a camping backpacking thread will you share the link.

Thanks!

Since it was only 2 rigs, it was nice. Lots of time to do what ever we wanted. Which was play around on fun obstacles and film a bit

 

Just arrived while I was home for lunch. How's this for packability! Material seems like your typical nylon tent/fly material versus the typical tarp-like material. Might seal those seams up.
