The Space Camper creates a flat roof over the bed with solid triangular wings that fit on the Cybertruck's sloped bed rails. Pneumatic struts run off the Cybertruck's battery lift the cap to create the wedge tent. All three canvas sides contain zipper windows, the back side includes an awning.
The bed measures 4-foot-2 across by 6-foot-8 long in short configuration. Because the Space Camper's leading edge starts just behind the Cybertruck's peak, above the driver's head, there's plenty of open space in the tent from the foot of the bed platform to the tailgate. Or, extra mats can extend the tent's bed length, creating a sleeping space that encompasses the Cybertruck full pickup bed length of 6-foot-6-inches on top of length of the rear cabin passenger area.
Steps in the wings help reach the bed, magnetic LED lights keep everything visible as campers get tucked in, and the segmented bed mats can be set up for reclining. During the day, the segmented bed platform and mats can convert into a bench and desktop inside the pickup bed. And that's only half the tent bed's bag of convertible tricks.
The base Space Camper will come with interior and exterior lights, roof rails, four 110-volt outlets, 12- and 24-volt outlets, and USB ports. Space Campers claims aerospace-grade composites are used for construction, so the standard tent is black and costs $24,000. The options list includes a stainless steel armor option for $4,000 to match the Cybertruck aesthetic, or full stainless steel construction for $8,000. Elsewhere on the side dish menu are overlanding conveniences like a camp kitchen, collapsible shower and toilet, insulated tent walls, and a Back Rack with a kitchen, workspace, and storage that attaches to the trailer hitch.
