Picture this: You roll into camp late Friday night after a long work week. Your car headlights illuminate your chosen patch of dirt at the campsite as the last of the sunlight dips below the trees. It’s a full-on race to unload the car, wrangle the tent poles, wrestle with the rainfly, and stake everything down before darkness swallows the site. Sound familiar?
As enjoyable as car camping is, there’s no denying that setting everything up can be a hassle, especially with kids and a dog (or two) thrown into the mix. The more you pack, the more you have to unpack, organize, and assemble. It’s a ritual every car camper knows too well: the delicate dance between convenience and chaos.
That’s why I’ve started looking for gear that takes the headache out of setup without sacrificing comfort. And I think I might’ve found the ultimate car camping luxury: the Thule Outset.
