this is a tent cot from Cabelas, $329 worth of great comfort.

sets up quickly and easy to pack. I am not pretty big/strong guy, but its not that big of a deal getting it up to the roof of my lifted LJ.
 
fyi - those are rebrands of the tent-cot: http://store.kamprite.com/catalog/
i believe bass-pro shops have a version too.
great system for solo camping, quick setup/teardown, love mine!

to stay on topic, here's the tent cot in the background and jeep too!

with the fly on (mines a single, nikson's looks like the double):

That is correct. I am very seldom alone on an overnighter, thus double does great for such. Havent used mine in rain (so fly just stays in a bag), but seems like I would be lots more dry then a "ground" tent.

Used the Kamp-Rite before couple years ago, and returned it after the first week's trial up into Steens in Oregon. Didnt like the quality, was ripping up pretty bad... and I thougth I was pretty "tender" with it. :)

Also, due to the material Cabelas used, it doesnt "dew up" as bad as Kamp-Rite.
 
I am sure there are some things that I have forgotten to mention in my spec sheet, so as I remember them I will repost...

Here are a few pics of my modified 1994 jeep cherokee and then the specs
