DAC INC. OF LOUISIANA DA2 Full-Size Truck Bed Tent for Capped Pickups – Fits 58"+ Tailgate, No-Pole Quick Setup, Weather-Resistant

The DAC DA2 Full-Size Truck Bed Tent instantly converts a capped full-size pickup into a weather-resistant, ventilated sleeping shelter without poles. The DAC DA2 is a purpose-built tent that mounts over your truck’s rear cap window to turn the bed of a full-size pickup into a quick, comfortable campsite. Engineered for trucks with camper tops and a tailgate width of 58 inches or more, the DA2 eliminates the need for frames or complex setup—making vehicle-based overnighting fast and compact. Its coated hooks, elastic shock cords, and two-way zippers create a snug seal to keep wind and light rain from entering, while mesh windows and roll-back panels preserve airflow and privacy.

How does installation work and how fast is setup?

Setup is designed to be a single-person, under-a-minute process when you’re familiar with the steps. The tent slips over the rear cap opening, secures with plastic-coated hooks and shock cords, and relies on your truck’s tailgate and rear window position—no poles or external supports required.

• Raise the rear cap window and lower the tailgate to form the attachment area.
• Slip the tent skirt over the opening and attach shock cords to the vehicle body.
• Tighten coated hooks for a weather-resistant fit and adjust two-way zippers as needed.

Will the tent fit my truck and camper top?

The DA2 is tailored for full-size trucks like Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, Toyota Tundra, and 2nd & 3rd generation Toyota Tacoma (2005+). It requires a tailgate opening of at least 58 inches and is not compatible with tall or extra-tall camper shells.

• Compatible vehicles: F-150, Silverado, Tundra, 2005+ Tacoma (2nd & 3rd gen).
• Minimum tailgate width: 58 inches; check your topper height before buying.
• Not suitable for tall/extra-tall toppers or non-standard cap geometries.

How does the DA2 handle ventilation and privacy?

The DA2 balances airflow and seclusion with two layers: outer roll-up door panels and inner no-see-um mesh windows. Use the rolled doors for cross-ventilation on warm nights, or zip them closed for privacy and insect protection.

• Dual outer door panels can be tied back for unobstructed air circulation.
• No-see-um mesh windows provide insect protection while maintaining airflow.
• Two-way zippers allow partial opening for temperature control and entry convenience.

What materials and safety features does the tent include?

The DA2 is constructed from heavy-duty, water-repellent fabric and uses fire-retardant materials where appropriate. Durable construction and quality fastenings extend service life for frequent road use, and the tent packs small for easy storage.

• Water-repellent fabric to shed light moisture and damp conditions.
• Fire-retardant materials incorporated for added safety around camp stoves and heaters.
• Two-way zippers and coated hooks improve durability and long-term fit.

Who is this for? The DAC DA2 is built for pickup owners who already use a camper top and want a low-effort way to sleep in their truck bed—overlanders, weekend campers, tailgaters, or travelers who prioritize rapid setup and compact packing. It suits people with standard-height caps and at least a 58" tailgate opening who need a breathable, insect-resistant shelter that stows in a small carry bag. Because it requires no poles and weighs about 5 pounds, it’s especially useful when gear space and quick transitions matter.
