Abstract: A hard-shell tent is secured to the top of a pickup truck or other suitable vehicle. The tent opens in a clamshell manner, and opens more than the standard 90 degrees, which gives this tent approximately 20% more usable space for occupants over the current designs. A unique hinge mechanism allows the tent to open approximately 110 degrees, which increases the usable area without increasing the footprint of the tent. The tent features a side slide/second folding section, and one or more internal shelves that fold into place automatically as the tent is opened.
