    Yes and a member of a backpack group can go back to the car and make a beer or tampon run without having to pack up the whole tent. Unlike car-tent people. Which was the point.

      Yep, you got it. A car tent ties up your mode of transportation. When I camp, I go car camping and use my car during the day to get to trails, site see, get fire wood, etc… With a freestanding tent, that’s not an issue at all.
