Gazelle T4 Tandem Hub tents would be perfect. Five minute set up and plenty of room. I (64M) have had one for two years and love it. They are not cheap but you will have it for a long time.
I (64M) have a Gazelle tent and love it. Super easy to set up and they have a new all weather tent. I have their T4 Plus Hub tent.
Never counted until today. But I have 10.... 1 in a box that I never even opened. I think I have a problem lol. With that said, the Gazelle T4 tandem is a solid tent.
Gazelle is a good choice and the 6p (the 4p is barely adequate for 1 with a cot and gear because of the lack of straight walls) is probably better but don't know if this meets your budget. Plus, it's folded size is HUGE, You need a truck or sizeable SUV to fit it. It stands at about 5 feet tall when folded down. There have been complaints about ventilation. Their mesh windows are so fine that they don't allow a lot of air flow. As well, the door is oddly positioned and if you have little ones in and out, it could be awkward. You can look at some good Coleman easy up tents that could serve you well.
I upgraded the T4 to the T-Hex Hub Overland Edition and have been very pleased. It fits two big cots plus one for the dog and still has plenty of space to move around. It's entry is on a flat face, not on a corner like the T4 which is a huge benefit in my opinion. Only have had a chance to camp in it once, but quality seems as good as the T4. Did fine in 20MPH winds once we got all the guy lines pegged. I got it it direct from Gazelle for 640$, free shipping on a black friday promotion. Unfortunately it's not listed on their website at the moment and it's over 1k$ on Amazon... so outside your budget for the time being anyways.
I bought the Gazelle T4 in 2024 direct from their website. It’s been great. Only downside is its length, but that is also part of what makes it so easy to set up. When you said $500 delivered i had to go back and see what I paid because that sounded ridiculous. Turns out, I paid $279.99 delivered. Looks like they are indeed just under $500 now. That is a huge increase in just two years. I’ve used the T4 on its own when going off the beaten path, and I ears used it as a supplement to my teardrop so I can store things and actually stand when I’m changing my clothes. It’s so easy to set up, I find it to be superior to a RTT since I can just drive away and hit the trails instead of having more weight on top of my vehicle.
I overland with my dog with the T4 for 18 months. Handled high winds, torrential downpours and 100 degree heat (exceptionally good ventilation). That picture was taken about a year into that trek. I'm 6'2" and could stand in it w/no problem
Very, the material is relatively thick and coated on the inside. Rain beads and rolls off the outside. The floor is removable and bathtub shaped. I've never had a problem and always have stayed dry even in the worst prolonged downpours. It is not a boat though if you get my meaning. Because it is self standing putting it up takes maybe two minutes, staking it down maybe another 5+ minutes. For reference quite a bit of my overlanding was in the PNW https://preview.redd.it/iekg4fahaqxg1.jpeg?width=4160&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=43e2d87308220b2eb40d754a460589d4d1c4f201
Gazelle T4 is outstanding. Have one and it is just awesome.
