These would possibly be better in the one area I find RTTs to be lacking and that is the constant flapping in the wind.

 

[Fireman]

Where did you find that one?

Both driving down the road and while camping. The sides are banjo tight

Hard shell or GTFO, IMO. I like the ones where the whole shell lifts, too. Those have just a pinch more street cred.

It would seem that one could park the model that @wngrog has pointing into the wind and it would do great.

All of those are solid in the wind. His style pops up fast, the others have a scissor crank. All pull the canvas tight.

The only downside to a hard shell is that they aren’t super roomy if you’re trying to stick your whole family up there.

 

[wngrog]

My kids really prefer to go as only children. If it’s cold we can get 2 up here easy.

Mild weather they prefer the Eno as do I.

I’m mostly solo.

The advantage of the angled roof is headroom. None of the ones that crank straight up allow adequate height for sitting or kneeling. The angled roof gives more height at one end at least. Ive always eyed the small style Nolen grabbed but Alex's JB in that last pic is kinda best of both worlds. Angled for height but low end comes up a foot or two for a bit more space inside.

Of cours the Pablo CaliKing model in that same shot looks like you could put the whole family up there

Good call on the extra headroom of the angled style.

That’s worth it right there. Plus they’re even faster to deploy.

Yeah I think so

I almost got the rectangle but to me having to crank it up and down defeated the purpose. Also, I don’t ever hang out in a tent. Sleep. Other. Out.

 

[dnp]

Yeah I think so

When the struts lift the tent up, is there a way then to lock it in place? If not, is there a chance the wind would cause it to flatten out? Granted, anything's possible. I was just curious about a lock for the upright position.......

 

[wngrog]

Yes. It’s a knob on both struts.

I really messed up the 100 thread. Should be in the Opine thread.

Follow up on the EFI fuse and breaker.

Got the kit. Worked great.

Lou Took my old breaker and report and reinstalled it and the fuse (and also pushed and pulled on the rest) and it fired up.

So. The kit is in my glove box for later if needed.

How much longer will you be poor?

How much longer will you be poor?

It is looking like forever.

 

[wngrog]

It is looking like forever.

I’ll lend you some money on future production.

If the miles are correct (and if it's nice, checks out, etc. - no photos), this would be the newest one I've heard about in some time:

That may be the same guy I bought my LX from after it blew a heater hose T and ran hot. I want to say his replacement 100 was white. His add for the LX was a brief description and no pictures when I found it on Craigslist.
