Telluride Roof Tent ..................only $3400

[westcoastTelly]

I slept in the Kia Telluride's $3,400 roof tent and it made camping fun — even for a longtime hater like me

I am not a camper. I have never camped, nor have I ever wanted to. But I camped in this very expensive roof tent. It went alright!

$3400 for a two-man tent? Well, if you're really stupid with your money I guess! How many much nicer tents could you buy on Amazon?

 

[mikeycat]

wow, I could spend many nights in a Holiday Inn Express for that kind of $$

If you reach Amazon for "Rooftop tents" there are lots of similar options for less money. They're still not "cheap" but less.

Snakes, bears, ants, mud. Can think of a lot of reasons, tbh.

People who want to sleep outside and don't want to get eaten by bears?

Ah ok. So the guy that tells people to camp in hotels is an expert in wildlife safety. Got ya. For the record, not many people won't have their windows rolled down in bear country. Back to the tent, is it expensive? yup. Does it serve a purpose? Obviously or else they wouldn't be popular, especially for overlanders.
