Got it all set up today in the rain. Took me about 30 minutes reading the directions step by step. Pretty sure I can do it again in <15 by myself.
I was trying to figure out how the tent weighs 80lbs, now I understand why. It is not like a cheap coleman tent. The material is more like a backpack cordura type, but no quite that thick. The tub is similar to a raft, a woven rubber, not like the cheap tarp material conventional tents are made of.
I am more than pleased with it. Although, the zippers are a bit lacking. They need to have bigger teeth, and the the door needs to have a hinge. We have a coleman that uses fiberglass poles as a hinge to keep the door stiff, it would add a lot to the tent and would not cost much more. If you are already spending 3K on a tent, whats another 20 bucks?
I did swap out the fiberglass wing poles with the nice Kelty aluminum poles I had. That was a good improvement in the long run, fiberglass and cold weather do not go well together. Only fiberglass left is the awning poles, and they are fairly short and thin, not worried about those since they are not structural and do not have much bend to them.
I should have wheel adapters in a week or two, then need to figure out how to get the VX wheels to fit on there Need to measure my gate as well and make sure it will fit with the wider tires, it may end up parked in my driveway, which I really do not want to do.
