Tell me about Turbo Tents Please

I have been using the 4-person deluxe canvas turbo tent for the past 2 years and it has worked absolutely great, even in bad weather.
Love it. After thousands of miles on the roof rack the bag is showing wear but that is it.

The Turbo Tent that Jonathan and Roseann have is pretty cool, but that sucker is really bulky when all packed up. It did well down in MX on a trip we took, and at OvEx.

I would go for the TT over the coleman version. I checked out the coleman version myself, and was not impressed by the construction; tube size and thickness was less than the TT, and the joints were not near as stout.

Now, I've also had a Springbar, and would recommend it as a tent that you would pass on to your kids and grandkids. Had it up in a snowstorm here in Flag and was impressed by how well it did.
