Default Hey Im looking for a good Car Tent

Yea gave up on letting my car sit out in the snow or shade so i wanted to get a portable tent for it, that i could put away when not necessary, but something with a round top and probably sides that zipper down with something that holds it down under the car tires,
doesnt have to have a floor, but cant be really big and has to be supported with pipes or something,


anyone know any good companys or have any ideas on where to look?

I have one for my boat & one year the snow bent about half of the pipes till it fell down, I fixed it with fence pipes from Home Depot, I just came in from brushing the sleet off it. They do not do well in snow. I tie it down with 8 36" curb pins driven in about 2 ft in the dirt, it hasn't blown down yet but once I came home after a thunder storm and the canopy was shreaded into about a hundred pieces. I would be nervous about having one over my stang.

We had one of those with the round roof for our boat. It held up pretty good until the last Noreaster ripped it apart! Nope, I wouldn't trust it for my Mustang.
