The perfect pop-up?

Just found this site while surfing for light pop-up style campers to pull behind my jeep. I didn't think to search for motorcycle pop-up trailers, but this came up during my search. Not sure on price but I requested a brochure. Basically its part tent, part pop-up trailer. http://www.tent-trailer.com/

If anyone has one I'd appreciate any feedback.

I didn't see any prices? Know them, plus the weight?

Here is a pop up I have looked at with high clearance. Although it's too heavy for a TJ to pull.

The tentrax trailers are also cool, and perfect for a TJ... but at bit pricing.

I like the A-frame hard-sided fold ups.

I bought a Jumping Jack this summer and love it. 15" wheels, high ground clearance and you can load two ATV's or two motorcycles on top of it when folded down. The whole tent assembly can be slid out and you have a 6' x 8' utility trailer.

That looks like a great trailer. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it?

That trailer is cool. I too am wondering how much it costs? If you don't mind sharing with us.

That is very cool for sure. I went online and found the price for this and it is $3895 which to me is way too expensive for a tent unless you had ATV's or something else that you would bring with you to use the trailer for then it would be useful. If you are just purchasing this to use as a tent I don't see $4000 worth it for a tent when you can get a great pop up camper for $4000.

I found one at a dealer in Ohio, on sale for $4995. Looks pretty good with plenty of room inside. I wonder how much it weighs (without ATV's on top)?

I've got an all aluminum pop up by LivinLite. It opens up to 20' long, and it has two queen beds. It breaks down to a 10' box, and it weighs 1100lbs. I paid $5,500 for it two years ago. They have lots of different models.

I went out and bought a 86 Jayco w/ a 10' box for $900. I wanted to keep it cheap. Now I have extra $$$ for pup mods. It's getting a SOA this winter. So far it's heald up well. I don't take it deep offroad so it works fine. I still have my tent for those deep trips.
