I have one similar for the 07 that I am going to try for the first time this coming weekend. I'm pulling our pop=up, but will have a couple of 15 yr. olds as guinee pigs for the new ST tent. I will post some pics after setting it up at the site. I think mine came from the same company, but was available in a tan color, which I chose. As for the size packed, mine is in a bag about 16 ins. long and about 8 ins. in diameter,,,,,,,,,easily fits under the back seat, but I just throw it in the front of the bed,,,,,,,,use it to hold things in place, etc,,,,,,,,,,just under $145, I think,,,,,can't wait to check it out,,,,,stay tuned!!
