The Best SUV Camping Tent Period

MKCamp invited me to experience its camping tent so a few friends and I tested it out on a camping trip. I'm very much impressed by their build quality and materials. It's safe to say that this is probably the best hatch camping tent I've seen on the market.

Oh my god, that long exposure at 5:04 is spectacular

[@aelaan12]

Absolutely jaw dropping easy setup. Who would have thought to do this in a Tesla? Great drone footage too!

[@hellobobby]

This is one of the cooler camping set ups I have ever seen. So happy for you and look forward to seeing future videos of all the places you'll go with it!

[@LivinginTesla]

Thanks so much Bobby!

[@SLASHFWD]

Now that's a sweet setup! I'll definitely come back for that!

[@teslafudge1585]

Great vid. Pump tents are awesome, very cool. Tesloids is half the price, but this one does appear to have twice the space, quality, and features.

[@LivinginTesla]

Yes, so easy to setup and they use top notch materials! The down side tho is a bigger and heavier package.

[@georgepelton5645]

Beautifully shot and edited video! That does look like a great tent for the Model Y. 😀

[@LivinginTesla]

Thanks George! I love the beige color of the tent, it blends really well in nature 😃

[@mightystocks]

awesome! When going to sleep inside of the car can you close the trunk? Will it screw up the tent if you close the trunk?

[@kartikkolluri]

Can’t believe I just discovered this channel! Excellent videos and ideas man, have a model Y and have always been thinking about camping in it. Hope you reach new heights!

[@LivinginTesla]

Thanks so much Kartik! It's fun, I hope you can take your Y out for some adventures!

[@fly4fun24]

like I said it before, a 150$ tent with a " Made For TESLA " name goes to $800,00... that is crazy. nice Video Iam a fan.

[@BrianKehm]

Thanks for the inspiration! I bought a Model Y last week. I’m sharing some videos as well and hope to cross paths with you down the road!

[@LivinginTesla]

Congratulations Brian!!! The time right now is perfect with the massive price cut. Will be following your videos!

[@tonyw8236]

single layer tent without silver coated very hot and bright inside in summer and morning dew inside tent in winter.

[@thierry37a]

It seems like a cold night.... no camp mode to keep warm with the Tesla?

[@JeremyVinny]

Always love you videography sir. Please post more content.

[@LivinginTesla]

Thanks Jeremy!

[@AdventureswithJerrod]

Epic camping video! I’m sorry though I can’t accept Teslas being a off road camping vehicle 😂

[@LivinginTesla]

Thanks Jerrod! Haha, well it works to a certain degree on the off-road part unless the car is moded more for off-roading. Camping on its own is comfy with AC/heating on. 😃

[@AdventureswithJerrod]

I always say to camp with what you have!! Pretty impressive set up!

[@jordanpack5571]

*gentle pat*

[@darriusdeburgh7333]

Think wireless free energy. 🤔

[@caseyphillips3567]

Not sure if it can stand up in high wind??$$?? It seems that with out the rods .....with the blow up structure is BAD though not sure about that it's just common sense because I've been tent camping a lot

[@jy5960]

"lots of beans" ... so many jokes for an inflatable tent

[@feilauren4166]

The tent is great UNTIL IT RAINS!!! I have owned many tents and camped in all conditions, I have never experienced it raining inside the tent as well as outside. I contacted MKCAMP about this and they refused the 12mo warranty (I originally asked for a discount to cover the cost of waterproofing it myself) and said they definitely waterproofed the tent properly and the problem must be that I didn't set it up. They sent me the setup video and suggested I try following the instructions and zipping it up properly, which was incredibly insulting. The setup was not exactly rocket science. I live in Vancouver, which is a temperate rainforest. So I have a $1200 shade structure, I guess.

[@helloitsjerald]

The visuals are amazing

[@LivinginTesla]

Thanks Jerald!

[@supermarkz]

I got a same one in China, it’s very good

[@tokenlistdotio7923]

two questions, 1# how do you turn off the light on the rear door of model t? 2# when you open the rear door, model y will think you are ready to drive, so it will heating battery all the time, which will consume lots of your miles. more than this, you can not lock you model y, you can not turn on camping model. how you solve these problems? I called tesla service they told me, they can not support this way of using model y, means they will do nothing, all our fault to deal with it.

[@favap1]

Great video! So any issues with the air deflecting from the tent?

[@Byronseto]

Welcome back!

[@robertwylie5567]

I have always wondered about how rigid, how solid these inflatable tents are in high winds. I’m talking winds of 45 to 50 mph. We get those winds regularly in the arid southwest regions of the US.

[@opendoor3036]

Where is this camping location. It’s beautiful.

[@LivinginTesla]

This is Lillooet Lake in British Columbia.

[@chrishyde1216]

I'm a little unclear about what advantage this has over the usual stand alone tent, of which there are many including pump-up tents, which could be pitched alongside the car. That leaves the option of using the tent for everything, in the usual way, or using it for cooking, sitting and eating and then use the Tesla for sleeping for 1 or 2 people.

[@PhotoJohn80]

Well with the tent attached to car you could use what is called utility mode(Thats what is called with the Kia EV6). With it in that mode at least for the EV6 you could use the AC or heat and it will heat or cool everything including the tent. Also the outlet in the car could be used with more room inside the tent to have electronics if you care for that kind of stuff. Basically could make a big little house if you want with AC and heat.

[@MKCAMPDORIS]

@@PhotoJohn80 Yes, can only experience this benefit if experience the electric vehicle camping mode

[@imthiazah]

Beautiful editing. Love it!

[@LivinginTesla]

Thanks Ahmed!

[@StarryTemplar]

1:10 there is Electric Air pumper which is SMALL but pump a lot air quickly LOL

[@LivinginTesla]

Yep but also the columns of the tent require very little pumps. A small electric air pump will save a lot of space!

[@louisstevens2136]

Your videos are legendary, mate. Try getting in front of the camera more. I think you will improve as a personality over time, and I think we want to get to know you! Big love from Florida

[@LivinginTesla]

Thank you Louis! I'll try to :)

[@regularSenseAppeal]

What is the point of backing your car all the way into your tent?

[@flukeylukey7559]

Cool setup, how high is the tent, im 6'3 or 190cm, not sure if I'll be able to stand. If you're sleeping in the Tesla can you close the boot with the tent attached. Is there a button to open the boot from the inside.

[@leroyporte]

Beautiful work brother

[@topics1463]

More videos please I love your content

[@LivinginTesla]

Thank you 🙏

[@30secondsToHimars]

You always call a guy who has nothing for actual camping and still going with you😂

[@rasmusdyhrandersen1823]

Nice video 👍 but can’t find the tent 😢

[@dreiboy]

are you able to still close your trunk door with the tent attached? love the video thanks for the info

[@LivinginTesla]

Thanks Andrei! If you fully attach all the components, then you won't be able to close the trunk. I think you can close it if you undo the zipper and velcro inside the trunk area, that way the cover can still be attached on the outside.

[@Chrisb8s]

I love it!

[@emaes2]

Have you thought of a 4-5kw Inverter Generator to power your car while you sleep? A 22L jerry can probably full charge your car

[@LivinginTesla]

No, that’s not necessary since the car only uses about 8% energy for the climate during the night, and using gasoline defeats the whole purpose of an EV.

[@Redlee01]

Great video ! I love it

[@LivinginTesla]

Thank you!

[@lavanyalea]

As always, cool video! Do you know if the tent can be set up to attach to the side of a Tesla, cos that’s where I go in and out into the bed… (model 3)

[@LivinginTesla]

Oh it's the doggie on IG! I'm sure you can set it up "creatively" on the side of the car but might just not be able to properly seal the air gaps.

[@lavanyalea]

@@LivinginTesla Yes hahaha, sometimes I borrow Mommy's account xD

[@tquirk2918]

It would seem a lot easier if the tent was not attached to the car.

[@Patriot3]

The prices are ridiculous

[@100toeface]

You didn't use the tesla to warm up the tent? Is there a reason for that? Seems the main benefit of tesla is for climate control? BTW you might want to check out the James Baroud Oddessy hardshell and falcon 270 awning as well. Or the Crua outdoors 'crucoon' + tarp setup.

[@togeika]

I thought you were going to sleep in the car. Are you only connected to it for storage?

[@LivinginTesla]

I was planning to initially but the tent is just so big to fit all 4 of us. We connected the car for climate.

[@IngeniousLLC]

Love this tent but the price turned me away. Enjoy it! Let us know how it fares on your adventures.

[@Bacnow]

Wait…what? A $1,000 tent? Nah, i’ll pass!

[@rigosuave]

Code doesn’t work

[@TechGuyBeau]

So hows the adventure going now? Im the guy who bought bananas off of you in Calgary. Hope your still having a great adventure

[@LivinginTesla]

YOOO that was a good time, haha. Adventure is going well, thank you for asking! How are you doing? Have you since bought more random bananas?

[@stifflol]

Invite Tesla friends to camp for Tesla video on your channel “Living in Tesla”. Friends turn up in Jeep. 🤯🤷🥴🤦‍♂️

[@dcolum23]

Does this tent work with other SUVs?

[@LivinginTesla]

Mostly, I think so.

[@Andre-yd1ed]

This is just marketing, cheap materials everywhere. Buy dometic Tailgater AIR instead, that actually stops both rain and wind.

[@johnSirpaints]

music is too loud and distracting

[@_AI_Takeover]

😃

[@aaronfreiermuth7749]

Would you be able to detach the tent to go on a daytrip with the tesla leaving the tent by its own?

[@user-wu3ij5mv9w]

Yes, and it can be used alone

[@SomeSillyMate]

It’s been a while, how you going?

[@LivinginTesla]

Going well, thanks for asking! Been working on the table, getting it ready to ship end of this month.

[@TLH442]

I like the tent but can't find the product! Why don't you put Amazon links on KZbin to make it easy for us to buy the stuff, you get a commission.

[@LivinginTesla]

I just added their website to the video description!

[@TLH442]

@@LivinginTesla I found their website but they have like thousands of products and no search on the site. And we don't even get a product name. Just the brand name. Again you know you can make a commission by selling your gear list. I used to build websites but I think you know there is a time and a place for everything. I think your gearlist should be upfront and center right here an Amazon gearlist and you'll make a residual as time moves forward. I don't really like Jeff bezos but he's the only person we can do business with right now.
