I use a canopy like this MoonShade, but I got it three decades ago. I think I spent only $120 on it.

Then don't look at this umbrella... Note: Requires a 220V power outlet. They do have a version without heat and light.

I hope that is in Pesos. If not, what sick son of a bitch purchases this?

How long does it take to set it up? And how compact is it?
Mine takes at most 5 minutes to setup, and all parts of it fits into a 3" x 3' bundle plus the two suction cups.

I first ran into some of them on a recently redone pool side patio. Note, this is a private single residence pool side patio in Monaco. I like it's looks and this enginerd thinks it looks very sturdy, but I can think of many many things I'd rather buy. A 4 channel 1 GHz oscilloscope with a deep sample buffer and frequency analyzer for instance. That way I don't have to beg time on the local university's one. For that price I think it should have wind sensors and automatically fold up in high winds. Nope, not even auto retract at the press of a button. Just a manual crank that can be gotten on an umbrella 1/100th of the cost. Note: I don't think it's higher build quality justifies even an additional digit on the price.

Soli 12 foot air canopy with open, solid, or mesh zipper sides. Very fast and easy set up and take down.
This is exactly the image I was looking for. Any reservations about buying one again?

The Soli 12 foot air canopy is really great. Perfect to use with the Cybertruck. I bought the round orange weights that zip into the bottom of the feet and extra solid and mesh zip on sides. It is really easy to put up and take down with the included rechargeable air pump. And it stores in the nice included bag. Really great quality and excellent design. I highly recommend it.

So I thought I’d naturally gravitate towards the blue (for obvious reasons) but it’s a slightly different blue than the rest of my stuff. The grey also vibes with my cybertent.
what do you guys think?

Do the mesh and solid sides use the same or different zippers on the main body?

I have not tried it in the rain. But If you were to close the tailgate and back the Cybertruck all the way to the back of the air canopy, it would cover more of the glass roof. Also, if you look at this picture from the side you can see through the mesh side the tailgate is open and there are several feet to the back panel of the air canopy. In the rain probably using three solid sides (not mesh) would be better.

You’d have to back it in enough that any runoff goes to the front glass I think. Even if that means leaving the tailgate side open. If it’s unzipped completely could you drive the truck all the way through on medium height?
