Got about $45 in this and ya not complete yet, still needs some windows. The cost includes stuff like duct tape, Velcro, new bungee cords etc. 1/2 inch PVC and tarp tied down with bungees.





Sleeps comfortably, used it once and gonna use it again next couple days.

Wouldn't be bad at all as long as it wasn't raining.

that is exactly what I have planned. Also need to put a piece of tarp or plastic up front between the cab so rain doesn't get in through that opening.

Good idea for a quick mild weather over nighter. Canvas tarps/tents are warmer when it gets really cold.
I have camped out of trucks many times years ago.I've used toppers and a truck tent like this one.
