Tent and bed mattress

Best (affordable) bed tent and mattress?

 

Welcome to the forum, here’s what I used before I got my RTT.
https://napieroutdoors.com/us/product/sportz-truck-tent-57-series/

 

I use the napier camo one. Got it shipped for $40 as an "imperfect". Its water proofing stuck together and peeled in some areas so I just used tent waterproofer and its been great so far. best $40 ive spent.

 

Any recommendations on a truck bed mattress?

 

Exped megamat. Period. And good luck.

 

To be honest if I did it again I would just get any cheap air mattress. The truck specific one I got the Rightline Gear bed mattress and its nothing special. It doesnt fit well between the wheel wells, it just is a way too expensive air mattress. It works but I feel a cheapo off Amazon would be just as good, and I wouldn't be worried about it as much.

 

I have A Napier I would sell if your interested? I recently got this for my soft topper works awesome. Who needs to carry around an RTT LOL!!

 

What do you want for it?

 

I also have this rightline model available for a long bed. Used once this past fall and worked great but decided to treat myself to a soft topper over the holidays

would sell for $115 plus shipping if you need a long bed tent

 

Second the Napier tent referenced from Captqc above, it is completely enclosed. It ended up in the low 20's at night and with a couple of good bags zipped together had no issues for the wife and I. Additionally I bought some heavy-duty space blankets and threw them on top before we put the rain fly cover on the tent (overkill), the awing setup is great and allows you to have a couple of chairs out in the shade during the afternoon. Mattress we used is below, not a completely perfect fit but darn close (just little wide between the wheel wells), camped for 4 nights, no problems. Just make sure to fill it up and test for leaks as soon as you get it, seems to be the #1 complaint on all air mattresses. It comes with an air pump and fittings, I extend the cable and replaced the 12v/cig lighter connection with a few clips that attach directly to the posts of the battery.

I have the rightline tent, one of the main things that sold me on it is that you dont need to unload the bed to set it up since it has no floor. So you can have a sleeping platform, or decked system and still be able to use the tent.

 

Is that softtopper's tent extension? I was eyeing that, but don't think that'll work for me since I have a swing arm on my HC bumper.

 

Yes it is. What HC Bumper you have?

 

Bought the tent with the soft topper. 6’ bed and 4” thick high density foam = cozier than home.

 

Hell yeah it’s the best

 

we haul all our stuff in a roof top cargo box and this trailer. Beds made and ready on the road.

 

I have ATH's high clearance with swing out. Pic is from summer last year.

 

Hell yeah. Rig is sick. I think it will still work

 

So you had that mattress custom made? Looks cozy
