[OTEP]

[wildthing]

Si RIDE sa banawe meron yata kasi sa website nila meron ad nito.

[kimpOy]

di ba yung ground tent nasecure yung ends by nailing it to the ground? pano kaya ang prinsiple dito sa pick tent?
DIY ko sana with ground tent.

[OTEP]

Hindi ka na ba masaya sa hard shell mo? Tabi tabi pa tayo nina Boy2 nun tapos si tebs sa cabin. hehehe. Fond memories of Hi Peak.

[RedHorse]

malamang, katulad yan sa nabili namin sa PriceSmart.

Fibreglass yong flexible rod, held in place by an aluminum tube, both ends.

Seguro, yong mga commercial tents pwede rin, instead of aluminum tube, other metal tube na lang na pwedeng i-weld, tapos lock by screws sa bed. It should work.

[kimpOy]

oo nga otep kaka miss ang high peak,
naisip ko lang if ever.

pwedeng pwde nga ito nga chong!
thanks

[tebs]

dehins na! may nabili na akong tent!
pero mga 2-3 lang kasya.

very memorable yang campershell mo, alugin ba naman kami ni otep sa loob e!

Meron din ganitong style ng tent:



I think it's much cheaper than an RTT. Dala lang ng portable table (and waterproof boxes) to put your stuff on while you sleep in it.

But you need to unload alot of things.

Better if you put the tent on top of pickup bed rack. So theres still storage beneath.

Yes yun naman talaga advantage ng RTT.

The truck bed tent is good for casual/cost-conscious campers. Halos 100% naman ng pickup sa atin is crew-cab type so pwede to fold up or remove the rear seat and put stuff there if solo or duo camping lang.

[ice15]

if you don't have a pick-up, pwede din sa roof

[kimpOy]

kanino naman kasi Bright idea na sumakay kayo sa bed habang paakyat tayo 30 Degrees sa batuhan, aber!

[Ungas]

Bwahahahaha! :p :p :p

Di ba mas maliit ang headroom ng tent compared to your existing campershell?

[kimpOy]

gusto ko lang alisin na permanent ang campershell ko he..he

[tebs]

e pano mo naman ikakarga mga merchandise mo?
gusto lang namin ni otep lagyan ng pampabigat yung likod mo para magkaroon ng traction. wala rin epekto, ginawa lang kaming laruan dun! hehehe

[kimpOy]

oo nga eh!

im torn nga may buyer nga ako sa camper ko pero nag back out ako, talagang may off road blood na ako, function before form

kimpoy,

di ba option mo naman itanggal ang campershell pag kailangan, at ibalik ulit? o masyadong matrabaho ba yun?

anyway, nakita ko lang yung tent para sa mga SUV, sa mga magazines, but there should be models para sa pick-up. try asking Kits at Armark, he may know where to get it.

kaso, i chose to get a ground tent (4-man tent ng Coleman). its a great tent and will keep you warm and dry in Hi-Peak. Yun ang ginamit ko doon when I joined Phil and Ungas the first time up. The rain-fly is really useful too, for added protection against moisture seeping into the tent.

Pero, for that hard ground at Hi-Peak, buy those heavy-duty steel pegs that Coleman also sells separately. The ones that come with the tent are too thin and bend easily when trying to peg into hard ground like in Hi-Peak
