We're looking at a new car camping tent with a built-in screened porch. Just
the place to sit and enjoy my morning coffee, from the pot plugged into the
outlet over by the truck. Mmmmm. I think it weighs 23 or 24 pounds. (The
tent, not the coffeemaker. That's ultralight at about 3 pounds, including
the stainless steel vacuum pot.) Compared to some of the ultralight
tarp-tent like shelters, it's a steal at $340. (Go ahead -- calculate the
cost per square foot <g>.)
