DaveInTN 3,247 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 I can't imagine that thing doesn't leak. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5kidsmommy 18 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 That is a lot of work for a glorified tent that probably doesn't protect from the elements very well, plus there is no room to store the necessities for camping. Although it is kind of cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Where's the bathroom? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Why does a camper need a bathroom?Because when I need to go, I need to go!And I'm afraid of the dark.Seriously. If I wake up in the middle of the night I don't want to walk to a CS to go to the bathroom. Wait didn't you just do an upgrade to your T&B? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted October 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Oh, it's got a portapotty, just not a bathroom Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LONE-STAR 370 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 That was like watching the end of Benny Hill. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 The best part about that video was the dogs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YENSIDCAMPER 66 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Whew, I am tired. My pop up is work but that thing is exhausting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Memphis 105 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 No mater what I start out watching on youtube it always leads me to almost naked women falling on their face. Strange how that happens. I would love to know the overall time spent on set up. That looks like a lot of work and they still needed to throw a tarp over the whole thing to keep it dry.

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Ok that was cool but holy cow how long did it take?! I counted at least 2 wardrobe changes, the sun came out and moved halfway across the sky, and the dog took 2 naps. :rofl2: The tent part is pretty sweet though. Oh, and I'm going with leaks like a sieve. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cyclonic 55 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 It takes an army a week to set that thing up, no thanks. Looks really, really flimsy. I at first thought it was a home build, but it looks like it isn't: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DinDavie 37 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 The weather changed before it was completely set up. Judging from the shadow changes it took most of the day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Construction reminds me of a Barbie Dream House. Maybe not quite as solidly built. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helmsey......Todd 134 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Luckily it does not seem very air tight, otherwise it would be one good OOOHAAAAAANNAAAA from being blown back apart :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ftwildernessguy 778 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I got rid of my pop up because it was a pain in the butt to set up, and it was a snap compared to this thing. Maybe it would have gone better if the woman with the curly hair had done more than stand with her hands on her hips and get a drink from the tow vehicle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Duane 150 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I'm worn out from just watching those guys set that thing up... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fladogfan aka Gretchen 259 Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 That tired me out too. And after all that work, they sit outside to eat. And we never get a tour of the innards. I'm on the 'it's going to leak' list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5kidsmommy 18 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 It is apparently called a Rapido Folding Caravan. My brain is too fried today to do too much research but alas at least you have a name. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
