Question Jeep Tents - the ones that attach
I have been looking around for one of those tents that attach to the back of your Jeep. The Jeep branded ones from dealers are around $700, a company in SA want $1800 + (someone scrape me off the floor). Has anyone IMPORTED one from the US at all? If so, what was the postage like. Although a normal tent will do me fine, the male person is insisting on getting a 'u-beaut, hook onto the back of the Jeep' one...

give MUCANVAS a call.. they are a supporter of this site as well.
and I have had nothing but great dealings with maria and dennis.
and it could also be of interest as a new product line.

I've got an Oztrail Sportiva Peninsular which has a "4x4 docking bay". I think most (not all) of the 'Sportiva' range has a docking bay, except the 'Commune's'. Mine sleeps 9-12 in 3-4 rooms, but they do have smaller/cheaper ones as well with the docking bay. Check their website www.oztrail.com.au for the specs (the site is actually down at the moment). I paid $429 + $10 shipping online from https://www.tentworld.com.au, which is $50-$70 cheaper than anywhere else. You cant beat $10 for shipping on a 33kg tent!

Thanks guys... I may get the Pinnacle Dome from OzTrail as that is about the size I would like. Main thing I needed... to be able to stand up in it. Being tall-ish can be a PiA sometimes!

Even better! I am about to order the tent and a sleeping bag.

Thanks everyone!

I opted for the Southern Cross Bus tent as I can standup in it and it goes up in about 4 minutes
