Specs:
A Rightline Gear SUV tent is more economical choice than a camper. Better yet, it allows you to use your vehicle's cargo space and power receptacles to enhance your camping experience. The SUV tent works with any minivan, wagon, crossover, or truck with caps. The alligator clamping sleeve attaches securely around the rear of your vehicle. The large doors and windows have storm covers for those rainy days, and no-see-um mesh to block pesky bugs.
The 130G polyethylene plastic bathtub-style floor on the main tent blocks water at the tent base and has tape sealed seams to block moisture. The tent fabric is also WeatherGuard treated for waterproofing and the material is UV-protected and fire-resistant.
The included rain fly fits over the tent for protection from wet weather. The Rightline SUV tent fits snugly over the sides and rear hatch of your vehicle so that water can't run inside.
This large tent is packed with special features to make camping easier and more fun. Organize your camping supplies using the 4 gear pockets inside the tent. Hang a lantern on the overhead hook and use the glow-in-the-dark zipper pulls to find your way out of the tent at night without having to feel around in the dark.
Heavy-duty straps and nylon buckles secure the tent to your SUV body without scratching the finish, and the instructions are sewn right into the tent's storage bag so that they never get lost. Standard tent poles, guy lines and stakes are also used for setup.
The adjustable alligator clamping sleeve removes easily when you want to separate your vehicle from the tent and drive off to sightsee or grab some groceries. Your tent will stay standing and ready for your return. And you won't leave behind a gaping hole - the tent has a door that zips up to secure your shelter until you return.The alligator sleeve material can be rolled up and secured with the dowel and loop fasteners around the doorway.
When you're ready to pack up and go home, take down your tent and store it in the included storage bag. This roomy tent sleeps up to four adults.

A Rightline SUV tent is an economical alternative to a camper. It connects to your vehicle to add more living and sleeping space for camping. The alligator clamp allows easy removal of the tent when you want to use your SUV. Sleeps up to 4 adults.I called etrailer and ordered a Rightline Gear Suv Tent for use on my 2007 Chev. Silverado P/U that has a camper shell. It arrived in just a few days and was everything I expected. The price was right and the quality of the material was good. We set it up and it worked great on the P/U. It gave me the extra room I needed. Plan to take it this summer and use it while prospecting in Alaska. I really liked the easy instructions that came with it.
I recently purchased the Rightline Gear SUV Tent with Rainfly. We spent a wet weekend with it at a music festival and were very happy with the product. We used our Mazda CX-3 to access our clothing and supplies and set up two cots in the tent to get us off the ground. The tent was dry and we liked that we were able to stand up in it. (We are tall.) We were glad we practiced setting up the tent before arriving in the rain at the festival. We found it a little complicated to attach to the car but with the practice we got it up in short order. Our only beef were the tent pegs supplied. They were extremely flimsy and bent trying to get them in the hard ground. This should be rectified. We were fortunate to have packed some good metal pegs and borrowed some more. It would have been a disaster without them. A well made product like this should be shipped with quality tent pegs.
I haven't been camping in a tent for a while. I bought this because I wanted to sleep in my car. I like this tent, it is a nice size and roomy. I had a little trouble hooking this to my car. I had an open gap on both sides. I'll have to work on this next time I go camping. I like this product & am glad I bought it.
etrailer does an excellent job of delivering items quickly and on time. The Rightline Gear tent is exactly as described. It definitely would go up more easily if staked first as recommended. However my trial run was in the driveway so staking was not an option. A concrete curb acted as a second person and brace. It is a very spacious and nicely constructed tent. I'm looking forward to a two week road trip and more ideal set up conditions.
I use this tent on the back of my full size truck(2002 dodge Ram) with a high topper from A.R.E. Its everything you need, my wife loves it and i told here you will never get me in a regular tent after staying in this. Quality made, wore my boots inside. Survived a massive storm in the Colorado Rockies, bounced right back to form. Best money spent to date. I Love it
Some years back, we took a road trip but bad weather forced my wife and me to set up our bed in the station wagon instead of a leaky tent, and we liked it. There were challenges though, with privacy, ventilation, and space. These are the challenges our new Rightline tent solves, and on our next road trip, we'll still sleep in the car, but in campgrounds, instead of expensive, generic motel rooms. We tested the tent - nothing unusual to report - but gave it a 4 instead of a 5 because the screens are not no-see-um mesh, and the poles are quite heavy and difficult to slide through the sleeves. It is still a good product, and we anticipate many years of use.
Alan E - 03/02/2018We absolutely loved this tent! We attached it to a Prius V. We took out the back two seats and built a platform for sleeping. We traveled eight thousand miles, camping from the west to the east coast and back with two not-so-little dogs. The tent was easy to set up and take down. More importantly, etrailer helped facilitate a zipper issue with the manufacturer. We were so impressed by the service we got from etrailer and Rightline. We cannot wait to go camping again. Even though we hit significant rain and wind along the way, the tent kept us absolutely dry. It's a great product and this is a great site.
After 1 year, we're happy with the tent and we've used it a bunch of times. We have a Ford Transit connect and it works well with the kids sleeping in the car and the parents sleeping in the tent portion. The things that could be improved: it's a bit hard to set up the tent because it's tall and big. My son ripped a zipper but I sewed it back up -- I wonder if it was made of stronger material if that could have been avoided.
The only problem is that the tent doesn’t fit tight to the sides of my SUV due to fender flares- although it was designed for my SUV, so it leaves gaps for bugs or rain. I fix that by draping a tarp over the SUV around the edge of the tent and used bungees to secure underneath. Last year we had a rain storm with high winds and stayed dry.
Great tent that doesn't leak. Pretty tough to set up on your own.
We've used it twice for camping since purchase. Once as a standalone tent and once attached to my Rogue. I couldn't be happier with the quality and stability of the tent. It has far exceeded our expectations.
It's cold outside but I stood it up in the garage. I was in awe of the sheer size when assembled. It's actually bigger than it looks on the photo at your website. Anyone could put a full size air mattress in there and have room left over. My wife was very happy with it as well. We're planning a trip to the Grand Canyon in April, will test it then and totally evaluate it.
The tent fit our Acura perfectly. Enjoyed the set up especially in the rain. So much head space! Highly recommend!
This product is really good. It held up in rain and wind even though I didn't set it up properly. No leaks, though. Plenty of room. It performs as advertised. The only problem I have is that it is a two-person set up. One person, especially when 5'4'' tall cannot properly set this tent up without a step ladder. It's a little weighty but that's expected for the size and durability. Instructions are relatively easy to follow.
This is great! Had a zipper malfunction and am still using the product! This makes a great extra room for my. Little guy my Pod camper !! Fits snug around the back and looks great!! Have received many ??? And complements this week camping in the mountains!! Looks like it will fit on any suv as well and seal up great!
Excellent quality tent that works very well as extension to my mini van. Convent for traveling and works for general camping. My only complaint is that it is difficult to set up by one person. it is hard to thread the long poles and requires a great deal of strength to bend the poles into place.
Product looks great, can't wait to use it. Easy to set up, and durable. Only problem was with UPS, they said our street address did not exist. It took them a week to get it to us, and they almost sent it back.
I couldn't believe how fast my order arrived, ordered it on Thursday and it was here on Monday. And free shipping. Another company wanted $26 for shipping and the tent wouldn't arrive for 6 weeks. In Montana summer could be over in 6 weeks. Haven't actually used it yet but it looks like it will be just what I wanted. Its a great solution to my situation. Also the customer service person was extremely helpful and nice to talk with.
We were not only impressed with the prompt delivery to our home but with setting it up, this SUV tent for our Kia Sorrento has exceeded our expectations. We look forward to our cross country USA and Canada driving trip in a few weeks.
Thanks for the follow up speaks something about your company. So far so good I don't use it a lot it's my quick fishing trip camping alternative and work well for the cold wet nights. Thanks again, Bill
The package was here very fast. Very happy for it.
Haven't tried it out yet, but assembled and it fits my 2018 f150 4x4 perfectly. Takes two people to ease assembly. Can't wait to use it in july.
disappointed in quality of door zipped...it broke after only a few days of use...otherwise, tent is fine. ed
Very happy. Thanks
