Realistically I go backpacking once a year. Fuck carrying all my shit with me if I can avoid it.
I have an Xterra with a big sleeping platform in the back. It's got a foam mattress topper that I roll out on it and the gear/food/stove goes under it. The back end of Xterras are short so I have flaps with legs that flip and and sit behind the front seats.
Pic is the slide out drawer for the stove and removable table for food prep, etc. It's not fine furniture, but it gets the job done well and it's better and quicker than a tent.
