I'm putting a 56 inch wide pioneer rack up top and would like something to cover the back end for car camping.
One place I'll be is camping overnight then skiing the next day. It would be amazing to have a small tent room on the back so I could minimize my footprint but be able to make breakfast/coffee with some protection from the elements.
I've been pondering a few options:
I like the idea of the single ARB on the back... but they don't have a good size. Either too small or too big.
My favorite is the 180 style rear but I can get the 270 style much cheaper in the US.
Writing these up, I'm thinking the oztent rig would do the trick, and then I can add a 270 awning for bigger camp sites.
Thoughts? Did I miss any options?

I've been pondering a few options:
- batwing/270 awning that mounts on driver or passenger side.
- 180 rear mounted awning
- standard simple ARB awning with sides/room option. 1250 == 49 inches, 2000mm == 78 inchs/6.5 feet (The 100 is 6 feet wide at the rear bumper.)
- Oztent with sail rail on the back of the rack, connected to the truck with the oztent connector.
