Backroadz CAMO Truck Tent

Tent was pretty simple to use. Assembly was intuitive. I used it in the Everglades. Mosquitoes were out in force. The tent kept out the biters, except for the ones I let in entering and leaving. The dark color did not transmit light at all. I left the windows unzipped, and fog rolled in which made everything damp (my fault). I’m pretty happy with the purchase so far.

The only downside to this design is, everything has to be packed out of the truck bed. The upside is, bugs aren’t getting in. If you have a crew cab pickup and plan carefully, the bed loading/unloading can be kept to a minimum.

I purchased this tent over a year ago, but never had a chance to use it until now with a cross country road trip. It is awesome. Easy to set up, even in the dark. I either rolled it up with a cushion for a mattress inside it or left it all set without the poles in the bed of the truck and with the tonneau cover over everything. Cold nights and moderate wind didn’t make a difference at all.

We’ve had this tent for 2 summers now and it is fantastic! Tall interior is great for getting changed etc. We have a tacoma long bed and put a platform inside the bed so we can have a futon mattress inside. Two pluses are 1) you’re off the bed of the truck so can sit on end of mattress and still be inside the tent and 2) sleeping on a proper mattress. We do all this before we leave then fold everything in and put the tonneau cover on top. Stealth!

My Backroadz tent arrived yesterday evening before dark.
Fist time setting it up took 20 minutes trying to be careful not to miss anything.
Some difficulty getting poles into place and through a struggle learning curve realized if you lossen all tie downs it expedited the installation.
Once fully in place and tightened down the next struggle was the rain fly.
It fits the front or cab end well yet at the tailgate the angels are off.
Workmen ship around side windows are not as clean as one might expect however it is secure.
Door has only one set of toggles to hold both door and screen a second set would be nice for the screen door otherwise it just hangs waiting to be damaged.
These are minor things that are noticeable .
On the positive side!
Roomy interior and the roof vent a big score for me.
Fits snugly to my 2011 Ram1500 and once completely closed up took the garden hose test without a leak.
The price was fair and worth what I received.
Even some friends are looking to get one now after seeing what I have !
My new Base Camp is ready for this seasons fishing and hunting trips

This tent was the perfect addition for my camping/fishing expeditions. It fit my 2011 Chev Silverado Crew Cab perfectly. I can set it up by myself in about 15 minutes. I’ve used it in wind and rain and it stood up to both, tremendously. Paired with an air mattress that fits the bed of my truck, I’ve had the best sleeps I’ve ever had in a tent.

This is a great intro tent to vehicle camping. Its versatile design means it will fit all truck beds. I have a RAM with side boxes and Roll’n’Lock tonneau. With some slight modifications to strap the poles from spreading right out and putting some blocks for the front awning poles it avoided any tight spots and possible splits in the water proof base. It would be good to have additional eyelets half way along the flysheet to be able to take up the slack. Securing to the truck is very easy and gives a lot of security in the wind. The price point is amazing and even better when on special and Canadian Tire!

It was a little tricky to set up but I believe now that I’ve done it once I can do it a lot faster like anything, its really sealed and keeps the weather out so make sure you crack a window . a little dark inside even with sun up but its ok with me.

Such a great tent. Purchased to go into my new 2019 Ford FX4 and it fits like a glove. Directions are actually accurate and easily walk you through the set up. Easy to set up and easy to disassemble. Highly recommend.

Wow. This tent was great. Fit my 2019 ram perfectly, lots of room inside and i woke up comfortable and dry in the morning even though it was pouring rain over night. Would highly recommend this tent in a heartbeat. Set up and take down was easy too.

Enjoyed the tent while camping in Muskoka this past weekend! It fit my Honda Ridgeline perfectly. Setup was easy, we used our own 2 person air mattress which we pumped through the cab of the truck. Awesome setup, super easy and comfortable.
