I'm trying to get a new sleep system before next fall. It's not necessarily a backcountry setup but more or less car camping at a base camp. I'm looking for a quilt for 15-20* (not a huge fan of bags), a cot, and probably a tent big enough to not feel super cramped in after a few days. Like I said, it's not necessarily backcountry/backpacking in but would like to still remain fairly packable just to save space inside the jeep. Weight saving isnt crucial either. Appreciate all the help guys!

Take a look at tenton sports. They make an xxl cot that you can also add a tent to.

yep, sounds like a kodiak 8x10 or 10x10 would be great for your purpose. Canvas tents do tend to retain heat better and breath well.

For size comparison, this is my solo basecamp setup. 8x10 wall tent with typical army cot and wood stove. With it's 5' vertical walls and higher ridge peak, has a roomier feel than an 8x10 kodiak, but you get the idea
