OT (sorta): Hitch Hotel
Thought of Angry when I saw this. Might be fun for hitting different Rambles around the PNW. Interesting concept for light camping though I think I might want to see some long term reviews on how buttoned up that is in different weather conditions.

That doesn’t look at its best behind a https://vistabule.comModel Y, which I also have. My muse is a Vistabule trailer, from Minnesota. Pretty premium but handmade trailer and available with a 1UP bike rack attachment.
PS - Still have no idea why, when I insert a link, it goes wherever it wants. That’s supposed to be at the end of the post. |

Meh. Go all the way with a camper van if you have the disposable income, or just get a good big tent and a good inflatable mattress where set up takes 15 minutes instead of 5, and you can have much more flexibility where you position it away from the road. I wouldn't want to drag that thing down a Forest Service maintained road or drive at freeway speeds with a compact car or sedan. And if you're towing with a larger vehicle, there's better options.

Howwwwwwwwwwwwwww much?????? What the actual hell. These companies capitalizing on the outdoor boom have lost their minds.

I'm with @zenmotion on this one. Grab a tent of good quality and size, learn how to set it up, and then sleep on a cot inside the tent if sleeping on the actual ground (with a groundpad!) bothers you. Massively cheaper, you can go more places, and you don't get hit with the MPG penalty of a traiiler or rooftop tent.

$14 -15k, they are obviously after disposable income buyers.

I'd just buy a TNF Wanowa which sleeps 8 and costs about $500 on sale. . .
else I think I'd like a 1970's era pop-up camper . That way I can put my canoe on top and haul around. https://www.jayco.com/rvs/camping-tr...019-jay-sport/ Last edited by verticaldoug; 04-15-2024 at 04:58 AM. |

Last night I spent in a tent I got harassed by a raccoon scratching at my tent walls all night. What I would have given for a shotgun that night… I know I’m “soft”, but I’ve had very few good nights sleep in a tent.

Whereas I've had many. Some of the best nights of sleep in my life, in fact.
I totally get wanting an alternative to a tent, but the price of some of these little teardrops, roof top tents, pick up campers and so on is just egregious. |

My in tent setup is just as comfortable as my king size bed at home. It’s spoiling usually camping out west compared to our previous experience mostly in the east coast. No bugs, no rain, no dew…
