Guide Review - Sportz Truck Tent
Hotel on Wheels
If you own a pickup truck, the Sportz Truck Tent is the best way to turn your truck into a hotel on wheels. Since it uses the full length and width of your truck bed, there's plenty of room inside for two adults. You can count on about four feet of headroom in the center. There are four large mesh windows for excellent ventilation, and a d-type mesh zippered door. Plus, it only weighs approximately 11 lbs. and fits into its own small duffel bag, so when you're done, it can be stored behind the driver's seat.
