Jeep tent on a camping ground or camp site

Once you’ve owned a few Jeeps, it becomes a habit that can’t be broken I had a Jeep tent it was a great addition, although I’ve pimped my Jeep quite a bit since this post.

The Jeep tent is a great item for short camping trips for 3 to 5 days. Any more time than that would leave you craving more space and home comforts. The main attraction has to be that your Jeep becomes part of the equation like a camper van awning.

Having used this tent a few times, I can say that it’s quite easy to erect and attach. Allow around 2 hours unless you are of the; Bear Grylls or Ray Mears outdoors type of people. The tent withstood a very monsoon style heavy downpour, it has added roof protection.

As you can see it’s quite compact and if you want to disengage your Jeep for some off-road excursion, that’s easy too. Just slip the connecting tunnel or sock off and then zip it all up.

You can get 2 camp beds or 3 at a squeeze in the tent, plus you have a double person space in the back of your Jeep WK or WH. The space is long enough for tall people to sleep in comfort.
