    I guarantee when he sees your truck he'll know I sent you there. Anyways, just park in the street and walk in the office. Tell them you want some specific numbers and ask if you can go back there. Louie will have you pull around back and take care of you.

    Doh!! Days have no meaning to me with my schedule, so I totally forgot it's Sunday. They are closed today, so don't drive over there @fatfurious2

    Thanks for info!
    From the angle that photo was taken, it looked kinda large.... I'm looking to get my little family (2 adults, 2 kids and a dog) into camping, so I'm looking at 5-6 person tent and not to break the bank while at it, lol.



    Edit. We're beginners at it...

    Although dubbed as cheap, I'm very pleased with my Coleman tents. I have a small 3 person when it's just me, and it's held up to a rainstorm or two, and probably 15-20 camping trips. We also have a giant 8'x10' coleman tent from my wifes childhood that her parents gave us. We use that one when it's us two and our large dog, and the tent is STILL working great. Plus they're inexpensive, so if they end up not liking camping you're not out a lot of money.

    I would have the same recommendation as @EatSleepTacos. Get a large Coleman tent and seal the seams for extra protection. It will work just fine truck camping and then you can get out there and camp without breaking the bank. They can be found at Walmart for less than 100 bucks.

    It worked really well. I had to do a lot more trimming than I already had, but I have yet to rub. Next weekend will be the real test when I go to Rausch creek offroad park

    We got this one and some $10 straps off Amazon. Normally $85 but two of the more obscure colors were only $51, so that's what we went with. After dividend it was less than $3!

    Costco has a very nice 6 person Coleman for 99 bucks.

    I love Coleman tents. I wanna buy the Costco one, but I have a basic 8 person Coleman that’s about 20 years old that still is as good as the day I bought it.
