I ordered my 83000 tent as part of Napier’s initial production run. I was really excited to get the new design because of the screened porch. I had no idea what to expect since I had never purchased a Napier Sportz product before. This is far and away the best tent I have ever owned. All of my past tent purchases were for the purpose of lightweight backpacking. They were great for their intended purpose, but wore out relatively quickly for the same reason…lightweight materials and construction. This Napier tent is one heavy bastard, but that’s okay since it is intended for SUV camping. I’ve been thoroughly impressed by the quality design and construction. The materials are strong and durable. And, considering how big this tent really is, it is a snap to set up. We’re talking two main poles for the main tent. That’s it! Another two poles for the screened porch and you’re done. Hooking up to the SUV is as easy as putting your socks on. In fact, I don’t even bother with all of the available straps because the expandable band that is sewn into the SUV sleeve is strong enough to grab your truck by itself. Totally simple, and totally kick butt. To give you an idea of the strength of the tent, I have a 2 gallon igloo beverage container that I strap on to the center of the tent ceiling and the tent doesn’t budge…handles it like a champ. That’s 16 pounds of water hanging from the tent poles, folks. I can’t speak to how the tent will hold up over time, but I’m giving it 5 stars based on my initial impressions. I think for any price under $400, this tent is a great value.

I’m very satisfied with this tent. I used it first time in the desert and attached it to my Dodge Grand Caravan. It’s definitely a good idea to get your car in position first, then set up the tent accordingly. It is not that easy to navigate your car backwards to the sleeve afterwards. It was very windy and cold, despite of that there were really no issues or malfunctions. Here are some things you might not know:

The tent comes with a long rain fly that covers two sides of the tent completely whereas the two other sides are covered partially, due to the sleeve attaching to the SUV and the screenyard. For this reason Sportz does offer additional rainflys for the 81000 but not for this model (83000): there’s no need.

The seams of the rainfly are factory sealed, but the rest of the tent isn’t. The vendor recommends to seal all seams, but I guess it’s sufficient to seal the seams that are not covered by the rainfly. Be careful about the selection of the seam sealer (see http://www.sportzbynapier.com/ FAQs).

I recommend to use a footprint to protect against humidity and damage, especially if you set up your tent on cactus remainders like me :-)

When you put up the tent, you’ve got to use the rainfly for stabilizing the tent. The rainfly has additional strings to protect against the wind. Although, don’t forget to attach the rainfly to the sticks using the Velcro strips.

Four people fit well into the tent. Five people should fit as well. I think 6 people is very challenging.

This tent is fun.

We used our Sportz 83000 SUV tent for the first time over the holiday weekend, and Friday night was a real washout with thunderstorms and driving rain overnight. The rain fly worked perfect, and the optional footprint floor really helped keep the screenroom dry. I would recommend upgrading to the long steel with orange plastic aftermarket spikes, as the wet ground did let the provided standard stakes loosen. We slept in the truck, and although I am too tall to really fit well it was OK. The ’sock’ was fairly snug, a little tape in spots would seal it completely to keep skeeters out, but we used one of those electronic butane mat heaters for a couple hours before bed and stayed unmunched all night. We stayed dry and that was #1 priority. I was going to give it 4 stars because one of the main fiberglass poles split when going up (still held the tent all weekend), but Napier was so nice and responsive on the phone that it is a non-issue. We can’t wait to head out for more (not so) ‘roughing it’.

I love my Sportz SUV Tent! My eleven year old daughter and I put this tent up in no time, very easy to assemble. Plenty of room inside, quality material, and it even fit back into the storage bag!

This is a really well made tent for car/van/truck camping. The overall quality of the tent is very good, and the connection to the back of our minivan is a great feature! We were able to leave all of our clothes and stuff in the back of our van instead of having it all over the floor of the tent, which gave us more space to walk around. The attached screen room is nice as well. Our kids slept out there and felt like they had their own “room.”

One comment about connecting your vehicle to the tent — you have to be centered on the tent or the sock will not fit snugly all around. This is not a complaint — I’m really impressed by how well the sock fits our van. Just something to keep in mind when backing up to the tent.
