Hi! I'm Dee and just started out on a cross country trip in my 2004 F150 truck and I have a tent that fits over the 8' bed where of course I will sleep. My concern is wildlife since I'm from Southern NJ and we really don't have much to worry about except bugs. I'm not sure how I will feel camping in the northern states unless I stay on military bases (I'm retired Air Force) where I think I would be safer. I will eventually get a cap (or build one) but for this trip I'm using the tent. Any information would really be appreciated. I've watched so many of the videos and love them all; very informative. Thank you
