Testimonials

"I purchased the Sportz Truck Tent III tent because my family loves the outdoors. It gets us up off the ground and is simple to set up. I like the amount of room in this tent and all of the little extras. Thank you Napier for a great product and friendly product support. JS Kiser, VA

My wife and I spent 8 days in Colorado hunting this past September.  We used the Sportz Truck Tent III for our camp.  It was unbelievably comfortable and roomy. We stayed 100% dry in some severe thunderstorms and high wind.  I would recommend this system to anyone who loves the outdoors."

 I Love This Tent
"On our fishing trips my husband and I have always slept in our SUV. Imagine how difficult it is to get dressed lying down, and trying to store gear in the front seat each night. This was a great investment two years ago and it still looks and performs like new. Now I can get dressed in complete privacy! It sets up in less than 15 minutes, and takes only a minute to disconnect or reconnect to the vehicle! On a recent trip we took our grandson who slept in the tent with lots of room for his gear and ours. It withstood a violent storm with 40 mph wind, and not a drop of rain came in. There is room to set a couple of chairs inside the tent for those rainy times, and the canopy provides additional protection. I highly recommend this tent for anyone who has been sleeping in an SUV and wants more space to move around and store gear! The only negative thing I have to say is that it is hard (but not impossible) to get it back into the carrying bag. Well worth the price, you won't be disappointed in the quality of this tent!"

Field Tested and Approved
I run a small business renting out VW Westfalia camper vans.I just bought one of your large size SUV tents and field-tested it.  It worked great.  Easy to set up, and it slips right over the Westfalia hatch as snug and secure as I had hoped.  Great product.

Eye Catching Tents


I have had a Sportz Truck Tent for a few years now. I gave my first one to a family member and bought myself a new on two year ago. It is absolutely the best!!! It is easy to set up and pack away. Every campsite that I have been to, there has been someone to come by just to check the tent out. I even had a couple in a big fancy 5th wheel trailer look at it. Keep up the good work.

Thanks,

Maiden Cruise in Sportz Tent

I bought the tent for my wife's birthday present and we used it for the first time on a trip to Philadelphia, PA from our home in Birmingham, AL last month.
We were one day ahead of Hurricane Ivan and got rained on a little bit. The Sportz Tent #81000 held up well and we stayed dry (except for one little place where I failed to fully close a zipper!).
Not having camped in a tent since about 1969, we were pleasantly surprised to see how your tent was so much better than our old canvas model. You have engineered a real winner and we plan to enjoy using it many times in the future.
Napier makes great tents and has great people!

Thanks,

5 Star Hotel

I just bought your Full-Size SUV tent and have a very different use for this product which I thought your readers would appreciate. I am an amateur astronomer and spend many nights in remote places seeking dark skies in which to use for astronomical purposes....I need a dark sky to set up my telescope and to do astrophotography.
Your SUV Tent allows me to build a Red lit space along with using the back of my Ford Explorer as a master bedroom, as a sort of portable astronomy lab. I set up my tent with the table, the laptop etc and the back of the truck becomes the bedroom. This allows me mosquito free space in nice red light (which does not effect night vision) in which to do my scientific studies. My telescope sits outside the truck and the tent. For those inclement nights, it affords me the opportunity to sleep comfortably as opposed to just cramming myself into the front seat of the SUV....
Your product will become a very substantial part of my hobby of astronomy!
Astronomers these days need a way to get 50-100 miles out from the city lights in order to have good viewing, and your product, the SUV Tent, allows us to do so "IN STYLE" and in a relaxed, comfortable manor....Thus eliminating the need to pack up frantically in the event of bad weather....

Thank you for making this product!
Sincerely,
Paul Olson


Sometimes it's good to
be left high and dry

I just wanted to say what a great tent you are selling. My wife and I just spent three days in Prospect, PA at an Easy Riders motorcycle rodeo. On Friday night it started raining and didn't stop until about 2pm on Saturday, and it rained pretty hard at times. We were camping with five other couples and of the six tents ours was the only DRY one, no leaks at all!! Everybody had wet clothes, bedding, etc. except us. I have a Sportz II Truck Tent with canopy and it was the best camping purchase I have ever made!

THANK YOU FOR A GREAT PRODUCT!!

'Sportz' tent turns SUV into a camper

Toronto Star Article - July 10, 2004
Turn your SUV or minivan into a camper in minutes with the new full-size SUV Tent from Sportz, a line of tents from St. Catharines-based Napier Enterprises.
 
The patented sock attaches the tent to the back cargo of virtually any SUV, minivan or truck with cap, allowing for extra storage or sleeping space in the vehicle.
 
The sock is fully detachable so you can drive away, leaving a stand-alone tent. The tent itself is 3 metres square and 2.5 metres high and sleeps six.
 
It comes with a 2-metre awning/rain fly, two entrance doors, fibreglass poles, a waterproof, polyethylene coated floor with rip-stop protection and fine mesh on all windows. Available for $229.95US at a number of camping and auto supply retailers.

Camping in the "Element"

We had a great time last weekend. It was just a little cool on the Saturday night. It rained a bit, and the tent didn't leak at all. Thanks so much for the great service. We had the tent sent long before the Holiday weekend!

Thanks again,
Shirley


One Cool Tent
I finally used my truck tent and it worked great! It fit my truck well, even though I bought a newer model of the same truck the tent was designed for. We encountered incessant 25mph winds the night we spent at Lost Maples State Natural Area and the tent withstood the assault. Even the canopy didn't fail! I got lots of curious looks from other campers, who thought it was pretty cool!
Thanks, Dave



Saving Money

Dear Napier Enterprises:
We use our Sportz tent often when we visit our daughter, who is away at college. A campsite is 10 bucks compared to a $75.00 motel room the tent is a no brainer. The pic shows my daughter taking a snooze after boating on the lake.

Thank You,

Great Times in the North
At Elliot Lake:
Elliot Lake - The age of searching for tent pegs, flat ground and not to bumpy are over for camping enthusiasts, provided they have a pick up truck.
 
The Sportz Truck Tent, by Napier Enterprises, has solved that problem and made just about anywhere one would park a suitable camping spot.
 
The Sportz Truck Tent weights only a few pounds and fits into its own small duffel bag. The tent is made of P.U. coated nylon with a polyethylene floor. It has shock-corded fiberglass poles. It also has a large D-type door, four large windows and a water resistant fly to keep the occupants dry when it rains. It provides plenty of room by using the full length and width of the truck box. It allows about four feet of headroom in the centre. It comes in six sizes to fit just about any truck: full-size long and short boxes, compact long and short boxes, flairside/side-steps and Dakota short boxes.
 
It takes about 15 minutes to set up. Skip Bezair and I decided to put the company's claim to the test. We set it up in the specified time, which included breaking with convention; we read the instructions (that comes from years of experience trying to put children's presents together on Christmas Eve).
 
All we did was take it out of the package, roll it down the bed of a Dodge Ram short-box graciously loan to us for the occasion by Algoma Chrysler in Spragge. We hooked the nine tie downs to the side and rear of the truck, passed the poles through the guides and put up the water resistant fly.
 
Skip and I did learn one thing, when putting the tent away, leave a window flap open so the air can escape as its being rolled up. We were both impressed with the tent, then wondered, since pick-up trucks have been around for so long why did it take so long for someone to think of this. I know it would have saved me a lot of frustration.
 
The short box versions can comfortably sleep two adults. The extra length of the long-box could probably accommodate a shorter person sleeping sideways.
 
However, bring an air mattress or a bubble pad, truck boxes where not designed with comfort in mind. Skip and I were not the only ones impressed by the tent, so was Darren Robins, manager at Algoma Chrysler, so much so they are offering a free tent with the purchase of a new Dodge Ram or Dakota.
 
Two tents will be given away as prizes in the Trail Rider ATV Poker Run on Aug. 26 in Elliot Lake thanks to Napier Enterprises.

Surviving the Storm

Dear Sirs:

A few weeks back I was camping at the lake. The weather forecast called for a chance of thunderstorms. About 4 am, the wind woke me and I could see the storms coming over the trees. The storms were strong with winds in my area at about 70 mph. The tent flapped in the wind and I was expecting the tent to be torn to pieces. The photo is from the next weekend and as you see, it is intact. We survived the storm and the tent didn't even pop a stitch. I was very impressed and highly recommend the tent to anyone looking to buy one. I plan on going camping again in a few weeks come rain or shine.
 
A Very Satisfied Customer.
