I guess when the wind gets up itll be pretty uncomfortable too, sea sickness lol. Defo my nice little tent for me, good snug warm nights sleep. Off up to the dales in a couple of weeks with some mates and the tents.

Great if you do alot of camping or on a long expedition type trip.

But for the cost of them and how heavy they are to use a few times a year not worth it. Better off with a decent pop up tent.

Looks a bit like a Top Gear joke to me.

Would a trailer tent not be better?

seen pic before.

how about load limit on truck, ok its based on when driving but
that plus couple of people going to be way more than 50/75kg.

T2 looks well, lifted?, lot of air in those arches.....

My understanding is that load limits are generally for dynamic situation ie. when the vehicle is moving, so if your'e stationery (as you would be with the tent erected and people in it) then you're ok
