Napier Sportz Truck Tent III Strengths
Truck tents are above the ground. Ground based critters are no longer a problem.
Finding a spot for the tent is as easy as finding a level spot to park. No need to worry about rocks, tree roots, or any other debris on the ground.
The truck tent stays clean after a rain.
The awning provides shade for chairs during the day, and keeps the dew off of the ground outside the tent at night.
You can drive (keep it below normal wind speeds) with the tent up.
Napier Sportz Truck Tent III Weaknesses
As with any tent, it is much easier to assemble with two people than with one.
You cannot drive on the highway with the tent up.
The tent is the size of the truck bed. Two sleeping bags comfortably fit side by side. A child can sleep crosswise. Anything more is a crowd.
Truck tents cannot be used on the ground.
Description
Camp safe and dry in the comfort of your truck bed inside a Napier Sportz Truck Tent III. This is Napier's third generation of truck tents, and every generation provides more room, increased quality, and more features.
The Napier truck tents have side walls and a floor, keeping you fully enclosed (and the bugs out). The truck tents use the truck bed as the lower structure of the tent, the poles provide the structure above the side walls. The top of the tent drapes to the outside of the truck bed, so any rain that falls on the truck tent will drain outside of the bed. The awning can be rolled up and stowed against the truck tent, or it can be deployed for a shade and shelter off the back of your truck.
Operation
Spread the truck tent in the bed of the truck
The ends of the poles will slip into nylon pockets
Two long poles go corner-to-corner
One short pole goes left -to-right
Bridge the tent up and slip the ends of the long poles into their pockets. The hard part is done.
Center the tent, with the tent material and the nylon pockets to the outside of the truck so that any rain will shed properly.
Insert the doorway pole.
Insert the front-to-back pole on the inside of the tent. This is much easier if you bow the pole to the side, insert the ends into the pockets, and then rotate the pole into position overhead.
Secure the straps to the tailgate and to the bottom of the fender wells to keep the truck tent secure in the case of high wind gusts.
Sleep safe, dry, and comfortable in your truck tent.
Reverse the process to take down the tent. Roll the truck tent up inside the bed of the truck. There is no need for a truck tent to ever touch the ground, so you can immediately store the truck tent when you get home without having to set it up again to clean it.

Napier Sportz SUV Tent Weaknesses
If a rope tied around the back of your vehicle will leave any gaps along the sides or top, then you will want to seal these gaps with foam or cloth when you cinch the sock strap to the back of the vehicle.
Description
The 83000 SUV Tent is the third generation of the Napier SUV/MiniVan Tent. This generation includes a detachable screenroom on the side. The 83000 SUV Tent will fit any vehicle in size from a HHR or PT Cruiser thru a Hummer H2 or a full size van. It will also fit any pickup with a bed cap, as long as it has less than an 8-inch lift.
The SUV Tents are great for sleeping in the back of your SUV, while providing a changing room with additional room to spread out outside of the vehicle.
The Napier SUV Tent has a door inside the vehicle sock, a door on the driver side, and a door opposite the vehicle. The screen room mounts to the driver side of the SUV tent. The awning attaches opposite the vehicle. Both of these are optional if you do not want to set them up.
The sock wraps around the back of the vehicle, and cinches in place with a strap. It is designed to work with a lift-up back door. However, it will work with barn-door rear doors as well. We suggest placing a 2x4 across the top of the doors to eliminate any pressure points and to keep the doors open. A cutting groove for each door will keep the 2x4 in place.
You can detach the vehicle at any time, zip up the door inside the sock, and drive off. Just as you would with a normal tent.
Operation
An SUV tent assembles just like any other tent.
Once the tent is standing, back the vehicle up to the sock.
If the muffler is hot and near the back of the truck, give it a few minutes to cool off.
Wrap the sock around the back of the vehicle.
Cinch the retaining strap tight to secure the sock to the vehicle.
Attach the screen room
Attach the awning.
