Rubicon Expedition Products Hitch Tent

January 2020
Author: Austin Atkinson

Hitch Tent is a hitch-mounted platform designed to boost the convenience, versatility, and comfort of a rooftop tent system. Remaining vertical during transport, Hitch Tent is quickly and easily deployed on almost any terrain thanks to the four fully adjustable legs and feet. The rear-mounted design frees up valuable roof space, dramatically reduces wind resistance, and most importantly, provides a detachable basecamp for unrestricted adventure. Hitch Tent will accommodate most two and three-person canvas-style rooftop tents and mounts seamlessly to a 2" hitch receiver.

"I've often looked at the classic rooftop tent systems and known there was no way to make those work for mobile hunting camps and hunters who need to wake up and take off to a hunting area in their vehicle. This new hitch-mounted platform resolves all of those issues for hunters and makes it easy to leave the tent erect and drive off a hunting area or almost as easy to fold up the tent, secure it in place, and bring your sleeping quarters with you!

At first, I was skeptical about the usability of the Hitch Tent platform from Rubicon, but after using it on a few late season hunts this year and hauling it for thousands of miles attached to the back of my truck, I'm sold! If you're tired of sleeping in the seat of your truck and find it too inconvenient to completely unload the bed of your truck to set up sleeping quarters, you should consider this Hitch Tent Platform for an easy-to-use solution for taking a quality tent into the field next season."  - Austin Atkinson, Hunt Advisor
