a $3000 car tent? there is no fucking way.
Rooftop tents quite comfortably hit that figure - but this is probably outclassed by a couple of pool noodles and a tarp.
here I was, thinking $400 for a hammock was a lot.
It is! $100ish for an eno hammock and tarp and you're hammock camping like an emperor. If you're not a beast, a canvas tarp and some rope makes a good enough hammock for probably less than $30.
good enough isn't good enough for me though. I got a OneWind hammock that cost me like $60, along with their excellent tarp. i even splurged and upgraded it with some dutchware fittings like the waspz for the tarp and an adjustable ridgeline.
the adjustable rideline was probably the best thing I ever bought for camping, getting it centered exactly over where I want takes about two seconds and one try.
I know exactly how you feel. I have a sleeping pad that weighs more than my backpacking tent because I will gladly carry an extra 5 lbs to sleep in comfort!
yeah, i'll never be an ultralight hiker, I love the comforts too much that I'll gladly carry a heavier sleep system if it means getting a really good night of sleep
Tarp technology is a lifesaver.
For one third of that you can have a huge deluxe family room sized tent that would be 5000 times more durable and easier to put up. This is the Apple product of tents without the quality or ease of use.
so the modern apple product of tents
I could get a hella nice 4 season tent for way cheaper than that. 3k for a tent is ridiculous unless you're going to places that will kill you, or you're winter camping.
