I know not to sleep in the back of this car... Sorry you had to find out the hard way!
But a tent is a different story... I would NEVER leave my car… In the summer that is! I was talking to the guy yesterday trying to get a special Yarisworld price... But it's already pretty inexpensive! |

The tent idea is awesome... surprised you guys don't get it in the States. I wouldn't use it for a tv or running the air conditioning, but the great thing is you'd never have to unpack your car! Just leave all the crap in the cargo area... coolers, bags, whatever... never have to run out of your tent in the rain to get stuff. Very convenient. Its like a tent with extra lockable storage attached!

It is pretty cool, but it is an easy thing to make fun of
Though in my day we used to carry the tent on our backs and hike up the mountain, not drive up there...

Does anyone else think this looks like the Queen from Aliens???
I think it'd be cool. A stand-alone tent requires you store all your gear in the tent if you want access to it, which eats into your sleeping area. With this one, all your gear can stay in the car, but you can still get to it. Handy! That said, never, EVER use a truck bed tent in the winter. You'll freeze your F'n ass off.... been there, done that! ~YR

a little off-topic, but that 3D car accessorizer there is pretty damn awesome...

Tent Pics
I'd love to see a picture of the actual tent in action....
I like the feature, as a feature, builds the lore surrounding Yari |

I like this idea. I showed it to Chuck before too. We both agreed it would be hella cool.

Just a bit too much wear & tear for my tastes, to live out of your car for a few weeks or whatever...I like the idea of the tent, tho, it's pretty cool! Gotta love that photo...looks like the house I grew up in! Big circular driveway, all brick, double front doors for moving the grand piano in...ah, memories |
