Roof top tent instructable.

If we think this way the most common stuff that we can use to insulate a tent is air. Build the base of the tent using 4 x 8 plywood sheets. Slide the car under attach and go. Building this diy roof top tent will simply cost you 100.

I found an old compact truck lumber rack on craigslist for 150 and when i bought. The ultimate kayak hauler and rooftop tent camper. The top insulation materials on the market today work by getting rid of most of the solid material and trap as much air inside as possible usually in tiny pockets. I can see a roof top that sits on frame that holds the poles to lift the topper off the car and lowers to the ground.

When you get to site you can drop your camp and drive the car off just like a camper trailer. This style of camper is used in expeditions that go into hostile environments and are on off road vehicles. The expandable skycamp clamshells opens with the top forming an angled section of roof wall and the bottom the platform for the mattress. The rear just attach the platform load with gear and go.

Before i decided to do this i was considering buying a roof top tent made in italy for 5000 u s but because the sale representative was an arse i decide to make my own for about 300 cdn. The trailer i started with was the little giant 7 torsion trailer. Building the lid and rack.
