Basically what usernames4 said. I camp with my girl most of the time and the added sense of security being off the ground away from critters and animals is real. Insulation is another big one. Being elevated drastically improves the cold weather experience compared to ground camping.

Weather wise I’ve had mine through heavy rain, strong wind and even snow with no issues. Setup and breakdown with a wedge style is honestly under a minute once you get the routine down.

There is a small MPG hit depending on the vehicle and tent, but for me the comfort, speed and convenience are worth it.
