Best Ford Explorer Sport Trac Truck Bed Tents

The first time I set this up it didn't look and feel right but every time after that fit like a glove. First setup was rushed because it was about to rain. The tail gate section had too much tension to where it compressed the entrance and made it difficult to use the zipper. I went off the instructions on the box and they’re vague compared to the instructions sewn into the bag. The main thing they stress in the instructions is keeping the seam lined up with the edge of your bed and the inner flap inside your bed. Once you properly line that up make sure the orange straps go over the tail light inside the bed and through the slit between your tailgate and bed. These straps are critical in placement as they pull the seams towards the inside of your bed. Last key point is the two black straps at the end of the bed. One will pull the tent straight down onto your fender and the other one will be at an angle pulling the corner flap towards the front of the truck(I secured it to leaf spring). Just like in the instructions they will cross over into an “A” shape. Before tightening all the straps open the tent and remove any slack from the interior flap that hangs over the bed rail. If you’ve done it correctly the two pockets will hang down inside your bed and not outside. I setup the tent by myself and did not have to force the poles like before. Also I have a bed cover that rolls up and had no issues leaving it in there. Follow the instructions to the T and I guarantee you will be pleased with the results!

Here's my 2017 Toyota Tacoma truck with your tent! Thanks!
