A.
Yes the tent, seams, windows etc are generally waterproof. As this tent fits a wide range of vehicles you might sometimes get water in the tent where it meets the vehicle or up through the removeable clip in floor.

The tailgater if similar to a poled tent in design, so this is the best comparison for use in windy conditions. There is not currently a video showing the setup of the Tailgater. thanks
