Truck Tent Mid-Size 6.4 Foot Review

Truck Tent Mid-Size 6.4 FootFits my 2005 Tacoma perfectly.Took a little effort to get the poles in place, but it went together fine.You will need a tie down in the front of the truck bed, but you can use a loop of 1/4" nylon rope through the drain holes to anchor the front of the tent.

Sportz Truck Tent III Review

Sportz Truck Tent IIII just bought one of these tents a couple of weeks ago.The setup took about 20 minutes and then another 10 minutes for the canopy.The tent goes up just like any other popup tent with the fiberglass poles.The tent holes are color coded to the poles so that was a plus.The setup for the middle (inside) pole (that runs across the roof on the inside) was a little awkward because you had to be in the tent to set it up.

3 gripes/cons:

1. The tent should have a padded floor to pad you and your knees from the hard metal truck bed.It would be fairly easy to make some sort of insert/pocket for placing padding in the bottom.

2. The door for the tent is difficult to zip shut at the corner due to the high amount of tension from the arching support pole.I had to unclip the hangar clip from the pole to get the door to zip shut.Unclipping the hangar clip is a 1/2 second task that easily corrects the zipper issue.

3. The canopy could be design a little better to handle rain.My canopy would pool rain water that had to be dumped.It would have been better designed by having a rainfly type pole support system.This support would keep the canopy stiff and the water would run off.

Pros:

1. Keeps you off the ground (great for rainy weather.)
2. Tent shape is very open inside so there's lots of room to move around inside.
3. Excellent ventilation.
4. Neat little 'glove' type hole that allows you to reach into your truck's back window without having to expose your hand to the outside (great for when it's raining.)

It just so happens that it rained the first night I took this tent out.The rainfly and the tent kept me dry and waterproof.

Overall - an excellent tent.
