An adaptable tent system is described. The adaptable tent system may include a base system having a rigid surface defining a perimeter edge and a canopy including a flexible membrane with a membrane edge and a canopy fastener, the canopy fastener extending along and fixably attached to the membrane edge, the canopy fastener adapted to mate with an interconnecting member fastener. The tent system may also include an interconnecting member including an interconnecting member body, an attachment member, and the interconnecting member fastener. The attachment member may be attached to the base member, so that the interconnecting member and base member are fixably attached together. The interconnecting member fastener may be configured to mate with any one of a plurality of different canopy fasteners so that when the canopy fastener and the interconnecting member fastener are mated, the interconnecting member and the canopy are connected.

A tent system comprising: a base system including a first base member and a second base member, the first base member having a first rigid surface with a first perimeter edge, the first base member configured to mount to a vehicle, the first base member defining a first channel along at least a portion of the first perimeter edge, the first channel adapted to receive and retain a first attachment member, the second base member having a hinge and a second rigid surface defining a second perimeter edge, the hinge pivotally attaching the first base member to the second base member, the second base member defining a second channel along the second perimeter edge, the second channel adapted to receive and retain a second attachment member, the second rigid surface positioned substantially planar with the first rigid surface when the first base member is mounted to the vehicle and the second base member is in an open position, the second base member adapted to fold into a parallel plane over the first base member when the tent system is in a closed position;a first canopy including a flexible membrane having a membrane edge and a first canopy zipper half, the first canopy zipper half extending along and fixably attached to the membrane edge, the first canopy zipper half having a first zipper tape and a first series of zipper teeth extending along and fixably attached to the first zipper tape, the first canopy zipper half adapted to mate with a first gimp zipper half; anda first gimp including a first gimp body, the first attachment member, and the first gimp zipper half, the first gimp body having a rectangular shape defining a first longitudinal edge and a second longitudinal edge, the first attachment member attached to the first gimp body along the first longitudinal edge, the first attachment member sized for insertion into the first channel defined by the first base member so that when the first attachment member is inserted into the first channel, the first gimp and the first base member are fixably attached together, the first gimp zipper half having a second zipper tape and a second series of zipper teeth extending along and fixably attached to the second zipper tape; the first gimp zipper half attached to the first gimp body along the second longitudinal edge, the first gimp zipper half configured to mate with a plurality of different canopy zipper halves so that when the first canopy zipper half and the first gimp zipper half are mated, the first gimp and the first canopy are connected. 2. The tent system of claim 1, wherein the first gimp zipper half and the first canopy zipper half form a quick release system, the quick release system allowing the first canopy to be quickly disconnected from the base system, the quick release system further allowing the first canopy to be quickly aligned and connected to the base system. 3. The tent system of claim 1, wherein the first attachment member includes a bolt cord, the bolt cord including a cord longitudinally attached to the first gimp body along the first longitudinal edge, the bolt cord adapted for insertion into the first channel of the first base member. 4. The tent system of claim 1, wherein the first canopy further includes a flap attached to the flexible membrane along the membrane edge, the flap adapted to overlap the first zipper half, the second zipper half, the first gimp body, and the first perimeter edge of the first base member when the first canopy is attached to the first base member via the first gimp, the flap providing weather protection for the first canopy zipper half, the first gimp zipper half, the first gimp body, and the first perimeter edge of the first base member. 5. The tent system of claim 1, further comprising a second gimp including a second gimp body, the second attachment member, and a second gimp zipper half, the second gimp body having a rectangular shape defining a third longitudinal edge and a fourth longitudinal edge, the second attachment member attached to the second gimp body along the third longitudinal edge, the second attachment member sized for insertion into the second channel defined by the second base member so that when the second attachment member is inserted into the second channel the second gimp and the second base member are fixably attached to each other, the second gimp zipper half having a third zipper tape and a third series of zipper teeth extending along and fixably attached to the third zipper tape; the second gimp zipper half attached to the second gimp body along the fourth longitudinal edge, the second gimp zipper half configured to mate with any one of a plurality of different canopy zipper halves so that when the first canopy zipper half and the second gimp zipper half are mated, the second gimp and the first canopy are connected. 6. The tent system of claim 1, wherein the first gimp includes a second gimp zipper half attached to the first gimp body along the second longitudinal edge, the second gimp zipper half having a third zipper tape and a third series of zipper teeth extending along and fixably attached to the third zipper tape, the second gimp zipper half configured to mate with a plurality of different canopy zipper halves. 7. The tent system of claim 6, further comprising a second canopy, the second canopy including a second flexible membrane defining a second membrane edge and a second canopy zipper half, the second canopy zipper half extending along and fixably attached to the second membrane edge, the second canopy zipper half having a third zipper tape and a third series of zipper teeth extending along and fixably attached to the third zipper tape, the second canopy zipper half adapted to mate with a second gimp zipper half.
