I have a number of tents. Seems most tents are designed to be pitched on perfectly flat surface. Like THAT is going to happen, (even in a RV park)! I agree with above posts, make sure the floor is staked tight and you use all the guyline points.

Not buying functional gear is an insult to me. It has nothing to do with the cost. A G4 pack or a BD Betamid aren't expensive but they perform.

FG - For the last time, your tedious retorts are wasting bandwidth and boring to me. So consider this the last reply in kind to you in this regards.

I did a search on Google and this is how it translated

A rather unfinished guide of the insultations and badly written:

"BOIL YOUR BOTTOMS, WIRE Of A PERSON IDIOT"
"YOUR MOTHER WAS A HAMSTER AND YOUR FELT FATHER OF ELDERBERRIES"
"I WAX IN YOUR DIRECTORATE-GENERAL, YOU Windscreen wiper OF BOTTOMS Of OTHERS"
"YOU ARE A LOONEY"
"BE YOU COMPLETELY DERANGED? "

Not everything is about you, GS. You might try helping people, rather than being a deliberate snob about it. People really do help others without benefit to themselves from time to time, you know.

GS, Have I invited you to share my tent?
NO?

Bonjour Tilt, mon ami. Je suis désolé, je ne comprends pas. Et votre vache?

Slut, do us all a favor and show up on a milk carton somewhere.

Maybe you'd have more money for gear (and a new house in a new city) if you spent more time working during the day and less time screwing around on message boards.

As I see it, Gear Slut has moved way ahead in the death pool while bacpac has lost some serious yardage.

Don Rickles Wannabe, sure... but Death Pool?

Well, no... now that I think about it, Don Rickles had some class and everyone knew he actually cared for people. Kinda like when Bacpac's mask slips a little and you get a glimpse of the big teddybear he really is.

This never happens with some other folks... they just breathe fire, in and out, day after day. It's got to eat 'em up from the inside out.

if this tent is so "cheap" as they say...take it outside..set it up..spray it with water...let it dry in the sun...and let it shrink the sag away..lol

Better yet, if it is a Eureka, pack it up wet and the rain fly won't fit!
