Hey Gambler, I don't typically camp when its too cold outside but I have woken up to more than a few chilly mornings. It probably goes without saying but you might want to pick up some warm sleeping bags if you don't already have some. The "mummy" bags are good because they zip up all the way around your head and keep heat it. Down sleeping bags usually provide the most warmth but they can be pretty expensive.

from an event I was at a few weeks ago
There are several HHRs pulling motorcycle type camping trailers also
One friends trailer weighs 300 lbs and folds out to a fourteen ft camper, they spent a month in Alaska living out of it a year ago last June

I briefly talked to the young man that owned that tent, I believe it was made for Jeep and sold thru Cabelas or Bass Pro he said it worked great for the HHR made changing clothes easy, he still slept in the panel.

Possibly stupid question here...but I would "assume" that the liftgate would remain in the open position while the tent is attached. I have as of yet found a way to disable the interior dome lighting when the doors/liftgate are open. Any idea how this would be accomplished? Pop the fuse, maybe?

Thanks
Mike
