While there is no shortage of camper extensions made for large,
gas-guzzling trucks and SUVs, the Prius Habitents has made it possible to get some shuteye in your compact car as well.
The easy-to-store tent retails for less than $100 and folds up into a small sac that can fit into the glove compartment of the vehicle. It attaches to the rear of the hatchback and turns the usually cramped rear of the car into a fairly spacious sleeping arrangement.
It's ideal for cross-country road trips where you want to save money on accommodations or want to sleep under the stars and would rather be up and off the ground rather than snoozing in the grass. It's also pole-free which makes for a quick and easy way to set up a place to rest for the night.
