Why this product
Why the Armadillo Horizon 3?
The Horizon 3 scales up sleeping capacity to 3 while keeping the signature 30-second clamshell setup. The 3-inch mattress and poly-cotton canvas set it apart from cheaper alternatives that use thinner foam and nylon. At 246 lbs, roof load ratings matter — verify your vehicle supports it before buying.
