I have a wish for a tent that appears in my imagination

1) Not a Massive Tent

2) Has 3 bedrooms - to sleep 3 or 4 on inflatable/camp beds

3) A Zig or Sig

4) A full canopy - for wet days & cooking

5) Stand up height inc bedroom pods

6) Good HH

7) Excellent ventilation

Does anyone else have a wish list for their perfect tent?

my dream tent is a hybrid between an outwell vermont XL, an outwell sun valley 8 and a bear lake 7.

Basically i want a sig plus a front canopy which is put up as part of the tent, with steel poles but curved so that the outer skin sheds water better than the usual montana type tents. Basically what one would get if the poles from the bear lake were on the skin of the sunvalley with the bedroom configuration of the vermont. Any fan of outwell will know what i'm talking about.

I live in hope.
Roll on 2009!

whilst a lot of us have been rushing around in 07/08 like blue a... flies getting canopies / extensions ( rain protection if nothing else) I wonder if the powers that be will introduce a whole new range next year with then built in to the smaller tents and not just the bungalows.

I can live in hope! just means buying another tent

Quite... don't understand it at all - do tent manufacturers day'dream rather than peering out at the real (wet) world?

WE WANT PROPER CANOPIES INCLUDED!!!!

I do like the Bear Lake but, one can dream.
