Can Napier Truck Tents be used with a tonneau cover?

Yes, certain types. Retractable covers are compatible. Folding and hinged covers are not and will need to be removed. Roll-up covers less than 6" high are compatible if tent is placed over the cover, if more than 6" we suggest to remove the cover.

Can you fit the tent over a truck bed toolbox?

Yes. Place tent over toolbox to minimize amount of water that could enter between the box and the tent. We recommend covering corners of toolbox to protect tent from ripping on sharp edges. You will lose the amount of space that the toolbox occupies.

Will the tent work if my truck has a camper shell/cap on it?

No. Truck tents will not work if a camper shell/cap is assembled. Napier SUV Tents are the best option as long as the height from the ground to the highest point of the shell window/door does not exceed 80".

Can I drive with the tent set-up in the bed of the truck?

No. Driving with the tent mounted to your vehicle may cause personal injury and/or damage to your tent and truck.

Can one person set-up a Napier Truck Tent by themselves? How long will it take?

Yes. One person can, however we recommend having assistance during first set-up. First set-up should take approx. 15 minutes and about 10 minutes each time thereafter. Each tent includes set-up instructions and color-coded poles for easy assembly.

Great option for off the ground camping
5 Stars
Great option for off the ground camping
I really like this tent. If I need to move I can still move slowly from one area to another with the tent up. I wish there was a version that was designed for use with a folding tonneau cover, something as simple is a different fly could accomplish this. Currently if rain is in the forecast, I have to remove the tonneau cover and put it on the roof bars. Being able to use the tent with tonneau cover installed means if I needed drive somewhere on roads, I could just drop the poles and pull the tension lines in the bed and then close the cover over the loose tent with all of my gear still in the tent and drive.I like that it is fully enclosed, not just a top half. Makes maintaining temp in the tent a little easier since air is not flowing through all the gaps in the bed into the tent area. Also keeps small insects out.I have had to reseal the tent already, the front area starting leaking some. Appeared the leak was right at the seam between the tarp like material in the bed and the top thin fabric.

5.0 out of 5 stars It works. It's tent that fits in the bed of a truck and it does its job 100% I'm a Happy Camper.
Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2021
This review is based upon purchasing the product according to the fitment chart provided by the manufacturer. It should be noted that I purchased the Rightline Gear 110766 5 Foot Mid Size Short Truck Tent (5') -Tall Bed and it did NOT fit and there were quite a few quality issues

APPLICATION: 2015-2021 Chevrolet Colorado - Crew Cab / Short Bed

PRODUCT: Napier Backroadz Truck Tent Compact Short Bed (5'-5'2")

Regarding the star ratings:
Easy to assemble ... 5 stars - Because it's semi-intuitive and instructions are accurate
Warmth .................... 5 stars - Because it's a non insulated tent that was as warm as non-insulated tent should be. I didn't rate 5 stars because it was "warm"
Thickness ................. 5 stars - Because it was not advertised as heavy duty or having some construction of some exotic strong materials it was up to expectation for durability

While I do rate this a 5 star product, it is 5 star because it delivered on the claims and my expectations based on those claims. This is by no means is a premium tent but a great tent for a great price <$200.

Having previously purchased a competitive product over this one purely for aesthetic / color reasons, I got a feel for how the truck bed tent experience could be and have a great comparison point. The Napier Backroadz is by far the superior design, as the recommended fitment was spot-on for my application as listed on their chart.

Fitment - The truck bed tent fills the entire bed area. The width and height are spot-on with some extra interior material to spare. Being the Chevy Colorado has tall bed sides in relation to other Mid-Size trucks, this means that other Mid Size truck applications should also enjoy good fitment with additional interior material to spare. Unlike the other truck bed tent, the bed hold down straps are partially elastic which makes positioning and set-up much faster. With the no elastic straps every 1/2" of movement needed on one side had to be relieved in equal amounts on the 3 opposite side straps. The elastic makes for easy centering of the tent and once in position they can be pulled tot for the same kind of tension.

Functionality / Size - The intention of the truck bed tent having the tailgate down is to the extend the sleeping area to greater than the 5'2"-5'6" area. This tent's design has a near vertical entrance panel making for the most amount of interior room offered. The other design has a dramatic slope putting your head or your feet within inches of the tent door surface when laying down. Additionally this tent has a nice high roofline. The extra head room is complimented by a "net' shelf at the top for placing lights that may not have hanging provisions ... nice little bonus feature.

Design - The biggest plus of this particular truck bed tent is that its completely enclosed. The bed area is not left open meaning the tent will keep out bugs, dust/dirt and have some degree better temperature insulation in just keeping the cold air from blowing in. Having had the competitive product without the interior liner, I can say that with the liner as this tent has, is the only way to go. The other floorless design was marketed as faster to set-up but the process after the first attempt for both was about the same.

Initial First time set-up: 34 mins
Second time set-up: 15 mins

This trip was a success with this product and it worked on the application as advertised and survived 30-40 mph gusts in 30 degree F weather with some snow flurries without any issues. Happy Camper here.

Criticisms and Suggestions
- While I don't mind branding, the Napier logo on the rain fly is too big and obnoxious. I would not even take a picture of it.
- Functionality is great but it could use a little help in the aesthetic design and color choices.
- Make a premium model with better insulation / thicker materials / upgraded zippers.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this tent
Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2023
I have had this tent for almost a year now and have used it multiple times so I think I can give an accurate review on it.

The TL:DR is I love this tent, and if you are thinking of a truck bed setup like this, this tent is awesome! Being up off the ground surrounded by the truck bed gives an extra sense of security and there is plenty of room inside.

Setup: Reviews here mentioned setting it up on the ground vs while it is in the truck bed and having done both methods, I agree setting it up on the ground then lifting it into the truck bed is the way to go. It is especially helpful with another person to help get it into place. The actual setup of the tent is typical, and if you are used to setting up a tent this is similar. It takes about 5 minutes now to get it popped up and into the truck bed, first time is a little frustrating when you don't fully know how it works. I am in a 2005 Nissan Titan and it fits perfectly.

Durability: so far this tent has held up just fine with multiple setup and take downs, no visible damage yet, and it survived some very strong winds during a bit of a storm. With the rain fly on it stays perfectly dry inside and not being on the ground when it rains is very nice. Zippers are all holding up fine. I also found out that it can hold up to moving the truck under 20mph recently when a Bear decided to crash our campsite, my Wife and Son inside reported that it was solid during the short ride we took.

Inside/comfort: The tent gives a really cozy feeling in your truck bed and even though its just the size of your truck, it feels plenty spacious and sleeps my Wife, Son and I comfortably. There is plenty of headroom and the way it hangs over the sides of the bed make it like a shelf on each side where I like to put my phone/keys/wallet etc... We originally were using a queen size air mattress and while it fit well, the comfort was a bit lacking (probably due to the low quality mattressI was using) I built a modular wood platform that we then put some foam mattress toppers on it that has really made a huge difference, more comfortable, and more stable than an air mattress.

Conclusion: We love this tent and have not regretted it one bit, you feel more secure in your truck bed than on the ground. Setup/takedown is standard for most tents, nothing tricky once you get the hang of it, and it fits in its bag easily enough. I would definitely buy it again if something were to happen to it.

Excelente producto. Mi vehículo es una RAM cabina sencilla. Al momento de comprarla tenía muchas dudas, soy nuevo en el tema, entonces medí la caja y es de 6.33 ft...así que hice caso a la tabla que proporciona el producto y no me decepcionó: quedó perfecto. Muy recomendable con respecto a las aberturas del inferior que tienen otros productos, pues no se le meté ningún mosquito. Es mi experiencia al momento.
