The Kelty Carport Deluxe is a car camping tent in the most literal sense possible. One side of the three-season Carport attaches to your roof rack, and the other side extends out to provide a covered space next to your vehicle. Use this shelter for tailgating, as a storage area at a car camping site, or as a staging area before you hit the trail. The sturdy aluminum poles and clip/sleeve construction make the Carport easy to set up and take down. Extra poles allow you to heighten the shelter and sidewalls roll up so you can walk underneath it. The medium Kelty Carport is designed to fit most station wagons and sedans while the large is for your minivan or SUV.

awsome for an Aliner camper

Rating:*****

i bought ine to use as an extention on my Aliner camper..it can be seen on the website....it is hard to put up the first time,,but once you figure out the configuration and the poles get a slight curve to them its goes up very easy ...it keeps my kitchen area very dry even in heavy wind and rain...and provides some privacy in crowded campgrounds...p.s. it goes up with one person

Kelty Carport Deluxe

Rating:****

Worked super-great. Just a tinge long for my Windstar and had to watch when opening and closing the front passenger door, also when sliding the side door closed that it didn't get in the door. It kept everthing dry, good ventilation, big enough for two camp chairs and a square roll-up aluminum table as well as walking room. Definite asset when van camping.
