I slept on top of my bed cover before in a regular tent, just had to turn diagonal as I'm 6ft 3in. If I didn't have a cover I was going to hinge together some 2x6s across the bed for a platform. Guess it just depends on how simple or complex you wanna make it. I have a diamondback cover and front runner now makes a rail system for roof top tents so that's what I ended up with.

Disregard. I will be spending the 1500-2000 to open up the tent and be able to lay on it within 60 seconds vs putting up the tent myself.

The structure that the tent is attached to, that is attached to the bed, what manufacture should I go with?

I have all of this to review, but I am about ready to go.

Finally got my rig setup and went camping in the Medicine Bow National Forest, this last weekend.
Perfect weather.

Finally got our first couple of camps in for this season. Has been a long summer waiting for it to get cool enough again to get out there. 2 weekends ago was a beach camp not far from the Saudi border. As it was still a little warm we thought at least having the water would provide a little respite. It is definitely one of our favorite spots. Last weekend I went solo with the pups to another of our favorites. Must be early in the season as the only tracks anywhere were the ones I made on the way in. Its about 30 miles across open desert/ dunes to reach the spot. Normally wouldnt go on my own but I know the spot so well and a couple of buddies knew exaclty where'd i'd be. No phone, no internet, nothing but sand and stars.

Another couple camps a few days ago had a nice foggy camp in the liwa dunes. Right now sitting on a but of wild beach near the UAE/Saudi border. Love this spot... also finally got my dune flag mounted. That was a pain to find the right solution for my purposes

 

[Donovan]

What body of water?
