An author who is not an avid camper tested a hatch tent mounted on the rear door of an SUV during a two-day trip. Setup took about 30 minutes. Inside the vehicle, they placed an air mattress for sleeping, while in the tent area they set up a table and chairs for relaxation. Power was supplied from a solar panel on the roof, routed through the gap of the rear door, making the space comfortable to use.
