On my most recent vacation to MT/ID, it rained so much that there was an old man on the side of the road herding animals into this great big wooden ship. My tent stayed dry though.

If I am reading this correctly, the heads are spinning in the part that goes into the track? If so, clean it up really well with something like acetone and use epoxy to glue the bolt heads in the holes. This should work until the parts are shipped to you.

I was thinking velcro. If those flaps were secured together, it would not take more than a second to unhook them and the flaps would keep the material out of the zipper, possibly preventing a zipper cut in the fabric or a kink in the waterproof.

will do

While I was out on my last adventure a few weeks back I noticed that if there was a way to connect the two halves of the bottom flappy thing (which is the thing below your hand with the blue edge stripe) together, it would make all of the fabric stay out of the way of the zipper. Now that I have...

I just pick mine up and set it on top. It is only about 100 pounds. If the day comes that I can't lift a mere 100 pounds then the reason to mount it will be gone.

I was also thinking about the weight distribution while going down the road. Not sure if that is a concern or not.

Mounted way off to the right? FLINTSTONES, MEET THE FLINTSTONES......

It got pretty cold when I was camping outside Quartzite a few weeks back. 29 was the coldest, but I never got real cold because between my fart sack and the wool blanket over my head it was good to go. I think a big part of this was the fact that the wind was not able to blow right into the tent...

I get heat rash really bad. The last time I tried baby wipes I had gotten the gentile ones for sensitive skin and when it touched my ***, I almost jumped clear over the truck. The shower doesn't make me try to jump over tall vehicles in a single bound.

But it beats the hell out of being stinky and itchy. When you are out in the boonies for 3 weeks straight you will start to grow bread under your sack if you don't do something.

I honestly don't know Greg

I tried the trial of GE Pro a few months back. I could not tell the difference between the two. To me there was absolutely no difference at all.

I just returned a few days ago from my adventure in AZ. I ran the gamut from wonderful to down right dangerous. Wonderful came in the guise of meeting a lot of people I have met online from various forums and making some wonderful friends. Dangerous came in the guise of being on top of a...

When it warms up here I will see if I can spin the fabric to the correct spot. I tried to tug it in place, but it didn't budge when I tried it in AZ. I am glad we have you to babysit us.
