Default Tenting is FUN in a RAM

Ok ok....these can be used on other trucks too and they also have models to fit SUV's....but the RAM
get's the "BEST" fit.

I picked up a Sportz II tent and I have to tell you...that for tenting...which is a sport of AHHHHH, especially
here in Southern California, it is the best fun toy I have bought for my RAM baby.

Get one...they don't condense moisture inside either! They are awesome to set up and you get so many
conversations going...and when it rains....who is the driest in a tent? No more feeling the cold of the earth or being low...
it's incredible...some set up pictures on my truck below.

That's so cool! I go camping in mine all the time but I usually just throw a sleeping bag in the bed. How much is it?

The one I bought is $199....it has the extra advantage of a nice canpoy folding out in the front with long
poles so you can basically have a porch too

Do a search online for Sporz II tent....I know you can find them in paypal shops and yahoo shops

yeah, id like to know how much too, and where bought, and how comfy is the flooring, do you need to buy an air mattress or does it have some type of cushion on the floor. does it wobble in the wind? looks like fun for the spring/summer.

It's one of those items that you need to read the instructions first so you don't get the flexible, foldable poles mixed up on.

Took my two times to get right the second time I used it, it rained (I was up near Santa Barbara camping)...and there is a quick
rain tarp that goes over the tarp, snaps in place...and you are camping ram style dry free!

I was obsessed when I first got it...so I did take step by step shots. I also bought an inflatable queen size bed that actually fits
perfectly in the bed even though they say queen size is too big...it fits snug and nice....and big sleeping bags....

If you were closer Amanda, I would invite you camping!!

Check out a link here ....(not the place I bought it from)...but I did a quick search :

http://www.camping-equipment-now.com...tailgateII.htm

YES, buy an air mattress...again QUEEN size is perfect for the RAM 2003/2004 bed. No wobble in the wind...the poles flex so tightly that the tent stays strong! It is a BLAST!
