..I just purchased another tent, in fact I think I have purchased 3 new tents this year alone that I haven't tested yet but will be soon in different environmental applications..
..Although my Explorer is fully set up for camping and my Ranger has the variable level platform in it, I often find myself in nice to hot weather where I would rather sleep in a tent than a vehicle..
...Sometimes though, I'm hauling different items in my cargo areas that prevent me from sleeping in the vehicles unless I totally unload the vehicle...So no matter what the weather, sleeping in a tent may be easier for just overnight camping or as a longer term base camp..
..If anyone has a tent they like or even one they bought because they thought it was the ticket and later found out you didn't even like it for one reason or another, please share your pictures and stories here..

..This is my latest purchase..
..With the help of Tina who works for the company, she modeled how to carry this if on foot and she demonstrated it for the video below..:biggthump
..I got to thinking with its handles and hooks built into the carry case, I might be able to pack this over the spare tire also..:scratch:
..And after seeing this tall guy climb inside and seeing that I can probably fit a twin or full size air mattress in there..
..This is a quick video and why I bought this new tent from Front Runner Vehicle Outfitters....Ease of set-up, tear down, and packing, not counting how lite-weight it is..
