If it is a short trip and sleeping in the car, there is no problem, but there is a trouble when traveling for a long time, that is, you bring a lot of things, food, clothing, housing and transportation. It&#8217;s all in the car. Think about the size of the car. It would be better if there is a load frame on the roof and a suitcase to increase storage space. You can put most of the items behind the roof trunk, the empty space in the car, put the rear seat upside down and pave it flat (if your car has enough rear space), it will be a double bed. Enough for you to sleep comfortably. If the space of the car is not large enough, it is a troublesome thing to move all the things in the car to sleep at night, put it in the front seat, and then flatten the lathe. (Watch the travel video of the bedcart) I probably estimated that the distance between the front seat and the trunk of these two cars is usually 1.6 to 1.7 meters. The height of the space generally does not exceed 40CM, most of which are around 30CM, so people who are over 1.7 meters tall and obese have difficulty turning over and stretching their legs in the car. The feeling of depression is too strong and it is difficult to put on and take off clothes. It is not suitable for long-distance travel. of. For this kind of vehicle, in addition to winter, it is better to bring an outdoor tent to sleep more comfortably.<\/li><li>Regarding car tents, roof tents can be adapted to a variety of models, especially with off-road vehicles and SUVs. If you have longitudinal load rails on the roof of your car (not glued decorations) or installing a roof tent, it will be much more comfortable than on a sleeping car. The opening and storage of the tent is very simple and quick, spacious, ventilated, and effective in preventing mosquitoes. Because it does not occupy space in the car, the things stored in the trunk of the car do not need to be moved back and forth. The current roof tent design material itself is windproof, rainproof, heat-preserving, and moisture-proof, and it is very comfortable to sleep. In fact, the roof tent is very practical. It saves a lot of time without having to pack up every time you rest. The roof tent is also very safe. There is no need to worry about violent storms, and no need to worry about snakes, insects, and ant bites. Sudden attacks by wild animals can be avoided.<\/li><li>As for whether to install a roof tent, it depends on your own needs. If you often go out for self-driving tours, adding a roof tent to your car will be a good choice. If you usually use a car to commute to get off work and occasionally go out to play, this is not necessary, because installing a tent will definitely increase the weight and wind resistance of the roof, which will increase the fuel consumption of the car. Of course, the stability of the body is also Affected. But it is more important to note that it is not recommended for elderly people with poor legs and feet, after all, they need to climb a ladder.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, if your car is big and long enough, it is recommended to choose a roof trunk and sleep in the car. If the car space is relatively small, it is still recommended to choose a roof tent, which can improve the overall comfort. Of course, you also need to consider the destination of the self-driving tour. If it is a winter self-driving tour in the north, then stay in a hotel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"710\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.goattent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Goat-Cloud-Nest-Hexagonal-Inflatable-Big-Space-Tent-Sunscreen-Awning-Outdoor-Beach-Camping-Tent-Canopy-With-Air-Pump-1-710x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.goattent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Goat-Cloud-Nest-Hexagonal-Inflatable-Big-Space-Tent-Sunscreen-Awning-Outdoor-Beach-Camping-Tent-Canopy-With-Air-Pump-1-710x1024.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.goattent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Goat-Cloud-Nest-Hexagonal-Inflatable-Big-Space-Tent-Sunscreen-Awning-Outdoor-Beach-Camping-Tent-Canopy-With-Air-Pump-1-208x300.jpg 208w, https:\/\/www.goattent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Goat-Cloud-Nest-Hexagonal-Inflatable-Big-Space-Tent-Sunscreen-Awning-Outdoor-Beach-Camping-Tent-Canopy-With-Air-Pump-1-768x1108.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.goattent.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Goat-Cloud-Nest-Hexagonal-Inflatable-Big-Space-Tent-Sunscreen-Awning-Outdoor-Beach-Camping-Tent-Canopy-With-Air-Pump-1.jpg 790w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Related:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.goattent.com\/truck-tent-c-7\/car-tail-extension-bed-sunshade-rainproof-rear-tent-simple-motorhome-for-self-driving-tour-p-32.html\">Car Tail Extension Bed Sunshade Rainproof Rear Tent Simple Motorhome For Self Driving Tour<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The key is depends on your car model, travel time, your height and the number of people to determine whether you live in a car, outdoor Pop Up Camping Tent , roof Truck Bed Tent.
