    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker Car Insurance Carver! Xmas Saver!
    Hi, i'm beginning to look into a folding trailer tent also. i've been recomended one by friends as i volunteer at several festivals and kids events each year and i look at friends in trucks with such envy but dont have a real need / space or money for a truck, caravaon or campervan.

    i'm having trouble finding ones for just 2 people in the main comparment. Sometimes it's just me, sometimes there's my fella as well. Doesnt seem right to get one for 6 people!! (though in a few years we hope for kids...)

    So does any advice on littler trailer tents?

    23rd, the design of most trailer tents means they're usually 4 or more berth. I have seen some 2 berths that fold out differently, but they're uncommon.

    Don't forget though, that you don't have to put the living space up if you don't feel you need it, and a lot of them come with awnings in sections anyway, so you could just put a smaller one up.

    Folding campers are more expensive, and heavier, but also more luxurious and I think you'll find more choice in the 2berth area.


    Just found this- it was the type of design I had remembered for 2 berth TT's
