    When you roll up the windows, roll and tuck them underneath for a cleaner look and so it's less likely to collect moister 👌🏻 (learned that from another video)

    i understand why the upgrade stakes and footprint are not included, because a company wants to keep the price affordable, So the customer has the option of buying their product or making do with a tarp and cheaper stakes, Thanks Gazelle for the practical option.

    This is a very nice tent and has received many positive reviews on YT. However, there seems to be no follow up reviews. Now that you've had it for a while, what do you think about the "front doors"? One reviewer mentioned that it is impossible to pull the zipper all the way down from inside, and that it is not easy to close the bottom of the doors completely to prevent insects from coming in because it is somewhat difficult to completely close the velcro. About the velcro, do you find the fabric/loop side frazzling out and not sticking well after repeated opening and closing? I think velcros invariable wear out. I wish they had put in zippers for the door bottoms.
    Also, what has been your experience using it in heavy rain? Was there any leak?
    Maybe you can put out a follow-up video on this tent?
    Thanks for your help.

    The one thing you didn't mention is the weight. I'm a single female and I like all the positive attributes of this tent. I have ordered one (it's on backorder) and after I bought it, I saw that it weighs 51 lbs. I know, I should have noted the weight before I bought it, but I didn't. Now, I'm wondering if I should cancel the order. What are your thoughts concerning weight? Do you think a healthy adult female who is 5'3" can handle this tent? Thank you in advance for any opinions you may have.

    • @goprojo6831
      @goprojo6831  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I did not mention the weight :/ it is definitely a camp out of your car type of tent. Not one to lug around a lot. I think a healthy adult female should be able to use the straps to move the tent around in short distances. It’s not light but also not unbearably heavy. My wife is 5’6” and she’s able to carry it to and from the bed of my truck with some effort.

      I'm 5'5, 62 years old and what I just discovered as I just purchased this tent and it arrived about a week ago is that if you take the guts out of it- all the items that will come out separately including the tent stakes and put them in a separate bag that drops the weight about 18 pounds. Now I can lift the bag! Sadly there aren't those handy straps on the ends of the bag that I get with the T4 plus overland. Not sure why they did that.

    What are the dimensions of the footprint and thickness? Is the purpose of the footprint for added water proofing or to protect floor of tent from wear and tears? Should the footprint stick out a few inches or feet beyond the edges on all sides of the tent, or be totally hidden under the tent?

    • @newenglandscrambler2262
      @newenglandscrambler2262 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's primarily to help protect the bottom of the tent. The footprint should be fully hidden underneath, or it will funnel rainwater under the tent and possibly flood it.

    @coreywangler 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review. I am torn between the T4 plus and the T4 overland edition because of the footprint and upgraded stakes. How large of a tarp are you using for a footprint? Does the tarp completely cover the whole bottom (t4 side and screen side) or just the t4 side?

    • @goprojo6831
      @goprojo6831  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m using a 7-1/2 ft. X 9-1/2 ft. Tarp. The 7-1/2 ft. Width just covers the tent side to side but the 9-1/2 ft. Is not long enough to capture the tent front to back. So I had the whole back part of the T4 on the tarp and the front open part was only half way on the tarp. I’ll probably get a larger tarp eventually to serve as a complete footprint.
      The overland edition does look awesome but I couldn’t pass on the additional space.

      @@gazelle7736 Thank you for replying to my comment. As a potential customer, allow me to provide some feedback. Having to pay to purchase extra equipment to properly secure and provide protection to a product is not the best business practice. There are numerous reviews on TH-cam that show the T4 having visible wear and tear in the bottom liner, The carrying bag forming holes, as well as how the provided tent stakes do not hold up. The appeal of the overland edition is that these issues are corrected. Most people are not afraid spend a little more for a good quality product, but we should not have to spend time (or money) finding solutions to get to that quality. If your T4 Overland edition has been successful at all, then either come out with an overland edition for your T4+/T8 models, or include them with the product already

      There’s a bunch of space with all of the netting and mesh pouches that are attached to the walls but to answer your question, no I’m not sure there’s any spot you could really mount or hang additional storage cubbies. The side pole frames are diagonal so it would be a little tricky hanging from that. You could probably hang a storage pouch or something from the top frame pieces but would also be in danger of collapsing the tent if you put something too heavy in it.

You didn't mention pros and cons of the tent, nothing wrong with the tent? Nothing to improve? Oh no wait, yeah the stakes are aluminium and it doesn't come with a ground sheet, right. How waterproof, windproof is the tent, how is it in the cold, hot conditions, how good is the condensation ? Those are just a few, necessary things you have to mention when making a tent review, but you can't possibly know all that, because you actually used it once.
