Emmylou: Honda Element with CVT Rooftop Tent
Sleep in the stars with Emmylou
Emmylou is an automatic, all-wheel drive 2003 Honda Element outfitted with a Cascadia Vehicle Tent (CVT). This set up is sweet! Just like in your own personal tree house, you’ll be up off the ground and in the stars; unzip the tent flaps and let the night sky be your entertainment.
Emmylou is packed and loaded with everything you’ll need to turn this car into a camper. The tent up top is quick and easy to deploy, and the mattress inside is much bigger than you’d expect.
The CVT rooftop tent comfortably fits two adults. Possibly two adults plus one or two small children… the tent is rated for a maximum 400 lbs.
As for camping, all the cooking, eating and camp gear you need is included. Your job is simply to pack your bags and rent this camper van, er … car!
Emmylou’s owner is an event marketer who has traveled widely throughout the west coast; he’s always ready with an inside tip on where to go, and might even have a private camp spot or two up his sleeve for you. He’ll go above and beyond to make sure you have a great time.
