Probably ridiculously expensive, but some really good ideas.

Ingenious. but when push comes to shove, you're still sleeping in a tent.

yes, but you are 2 metres above the critters in that tent. Which, imho, is not high enough to get away from some of the critters they have down there

Certain neat and well thought out. However as mentioned it's a really big tent, that requires a dedicated truck.

I used to have a tent that fit the bed of my pickup that was essentially the same thing without the slick packaging.

It has the same drawbacks too... can't drive into town for fuel without breaking camp. Metal truck beds get cold as berkeley when the wind blows under them in 25F weather. It's a tent. Driving wind and rain find a way in.

I camped at the track that way for years though and it was still better than sleeping on the ground.
