construction. Note: most car toppers are a
relatively lightweight 1.2mm.
We zipped off the strong PVC top cover and I
set about organising some cameras. Lane said,
“don’t turn your back for long!” and presto,
within a couple of minutes he had us set up
ready for an overnighter — awning included.
Wow, what a pleasant surprise!
The setup also revealed a unique
configuration. The main structure folds almost
effortlessly to the passenger side but instead
of being big, heavy and cumbersome, like
most soft floors, there isn’t actually any walls
or floor — just the roof section with separate
detachable sides. As the kitchen area opens
from the rear of the trailer, a further ‘Quick
Set-Up’ awning/roof easily unfolds revealing all
of the support structure and poles that remain
attached for easy assembly. Simply adjust the
arms and poles and stake it all down with a
few guy ropes, and Bob’s your uncle, quick as
a flash the tent is assembled! The awning stays
attached for packing under the road cover, plus
there’s plenty of room to spare for bedding,
tables chairs — even the kids’ boogie boards.
The tub features an easy fold-out stairwell
with steps that are strong, secure and easy to
navigate, even in the dark, thanks to a courtesy
light. It leads to a walk-through section before
arriving at the queen size innerspring bed. The
walk-through is a terrific storage area for your
camp chairs, and perhaps a folding table when
on the move, but it also has two large drawers
leading under the bed and another on the sideInstead of being big, heavy and
