Uses for Pickup Tents Other Than Camping

Some friends and I decided to go to the NHRA Winter Nationals in Pomona this year. The cost of food once you’re inside is worse than Disneyland, so we decided it would be cheaper to bring our own. My friend has a huge Ford truck with a crew cab and an awesome tent shell. We all fit in the truck for the ride there, and we packed a BBQ and lots of hot dogs, hamburgers, and drinks.

When lunch time arrived, we just walked out to the truck and started cooking. It was great because it was really hot and bright in Pomona that day, so the tent provided some shade. Also, it turns out that we brought way more food than we needed, so we were able to let others eat as well. Let’s just say that it turned out to be a great way to meet girls.
