This would be of interest not only to Lt Wt. backpackers, but also to car campers. If the move to more efficient (and necessarily smaller) cars isn't derailed by the current welcome drop in gas prices, having enough room for gear becomes an issue which this addresses.

Having had 5 kids, we managed the cross-country trips because we had backpacking equipment and not car camping eqpt without having to buy a giant vehicle.

Are you listening Henry?? You have a potential market niche bigger than us UL backpacking folk.
