I mean, I've seen weirder crap for my car...

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I actually kinda like those things.

They were huge at multi day music festivals with camping, probably still are.

You only got so much space for camping, so camping on your car saved space and helped make sure you got a breeze being higher up than everyone.

Like a treefort.

A friend of mine has that one. I was a little surprised to see that the telescope ladder is the exact same as the cheapest one in a discount hardware store. I wonder how much it costs at Audi..

Having it hang over? yeah... little weird...

[–] sucricdrawkcab@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

The rack isn't even attached to the rails in this picture. So not that weird.

This looks like a quality tent that won't fold if someone breathes on it.
