Napier Sportz Truck Bed Camping Tent - Waterproof 2-Person Tents - Easy to Install in 15 Minutes - Compact Storage Case - Sturdy Camp & Adventure Shelter - Spacious, Secure, Truck Accessories

I think we're really going to enjoy using this tent on road trips. Before we do, we figured we better put it up at home so as not to look completely clueless when we're out in public. It took time to work through the instructions, but they were easy to understand. It took a while the first time, but I expect it'll take less time each time we use it. It was easy to question ourselves and whether what we were doing was right... if it was too loose or too tight, crooked or straight. You just have to work through all the steps before questioning the method or the result. It may be difficult for one person to put up by themselves, as it sometimes took both of us just to place a pole in a tight pocket. But once all the poles were in place, it was fairly easy to get situated before setting up the awning. The multiple sized windows are great, the window to access the truck cab window is a plus (and one of the reasons I chose this tent) and the awning is awesome. The only con is that there is no visibility out the windows when the rain fly is on, but that's not a deal breaker. I gave 4 stars for water resistance, and while we haven't used it in real wet weather yet, I'm optimistic it'll be fine. Overall, great tent!

I bought this tent to go in my Toyota Tacoma with the 6 foot bed. Then someone hit my truck. So while it's in the shop, I thought it would be fun to see if the tent would fit my 5x8 utility trailer. It fit Great!Putting the tent into the trailer has several advantages.1) No ladder required. I just step right into the tent.2) No wheel wells to contend with. Lots more space.3) Much easier to assemble.4) More headroom. The rails in my trailer are 21" high, that's 2" higher than my truck bed sides.5) Better gas mileage. I can haul this light weight trailer with my 1.6L car.6) I can leave the tent set up if I decide to go somewhere. I just disconnect the trailer from the car.If I'm hauling a boat and going to the lake for the weekend, or I'm going trail camping, then the tent is going into the truck. If I'm going to a state park or some other type of campsite, it's going in the trailer.

We bought this for a 2018 Ram 2500. It basically fits. My husband and I camp often for more than 40 years so we recognize and deeply appreciate a well made tent. This tent is well thought out and has options available that other tents might not. Easy to assemble? Well, look, NOTHING assembled in a big truck like that is easy. If someone is saying it's easy, they are 6'6" or more. Even my 6'2" husband balances on the truck tire to get it up while I help.Observations1. A large, strong tent floor. Regardless, a hole in a tent floor is not helpful so we use a heavy tarp between the truck back floor and the tent floor to prevent friction tears. The waterproof floor extends above the wheel wells and over the tailgate...good.2. Taped seams. Excellent.3. A window that completely unzips against the back cab window so we can access our young daughter who sleeps in the back seat of the truck. We can also access the plug for hubby's CPAP or our fan, then zip it almost closed. Btw...the zipper is repositionable to wherever you want to leave a tiny hole for the cord to pass through. My daughter and I don't have to fight power cords draped in our bed.4. There is room at the end of the bed to sit and put on shoes, etc without having to hang over the tailgate. I bought and am using a thick bathroom rug to place at the foot of the bed and the end of the tent. Keeps the tent clean, prevents "hot butt" from sitting directly on the metal tailgate, and, again, protects the tent floor. It's easy to shake out and keeps dirt out of the bed and tent. The rug size that fits perfectly is 2 ft x 4 ft.5. Many windows and vents. The side windows are large but stationary - no zippers on the mesh. However, the tent cover on the side windows does have a side to side crescent zipper as well as a center zipper for many configurations of ventilation. The mesh windows on the front and back do open completely and can be operated from both inside and outside the tent. Ie: you can open the front tent window from inside your cab. The zippers are average tent zippers. They will continue to remain the weakest part of the tent...regardless of the support poles.6. The poles are many and as stated before by others, long. They barely fit. They are very thin and flexible. There is a trick to getting them up. Insert them in the sleeves in the order as directed by the instructions, then go back and slip them in the pockets or grommet. Be careful.7. Our larger awning poles were barely long enough...barely. But the awning is one main reason for shelling out the money for this particular tent. It keeps mild rain out of the tent.8. The fly. A tent fly only works where it overhangs the tent but doesn't touch the tent. This mostly does that. The sides of the fly aren't long enough to over hang the sides of the truck or taut enough to not sag and touch. We will insert foam chocks under the side windows between the outside of the tent but under the fly. We have them on hand for carrying our canoe. That pushes the tent in slightly, holds the sides of the fly out enough to direct drips to the outside of the truck and increase air circulation in the tent during rain storms. One side note, the fly cover over the front window has a zipper so you can still access the cab.We used this while traveling. It is a pain to totally set up and take down each night. We learned to pull the poles from the pockets, fold up a section on either end of every pole and just collapse it in place. We bought and installed a soft, rollable tonneau cover. It IS compatible with this exact set up.This is a sturdy, well made tent that works well for this purpose. A truck camper top would be easier in most cases. They are in very short supply currently and quite a bit more expensive. This tent suits for now. There was a lot of thought put onto creating this particular tent. It's worth the extra bit of money. No, we don't work for this company nor get kickbacks. I'm just addressing the questions I wanted to know before I took the plunge for this more expensive tent. Enjoy!
