Wenzel - 1887 Elk River Tent (Model #35778)

I just got home from a ten day trip through Michigan’s UP and I am finally convinced I need a new car camping tent. I have been using a Wenzel 1882 Elk River tent since my mom ‘smoked it’ from Kool in the 90’s. This tent is wonderful as the fly is tarp material as is the floor. It’s been retreated every spring and stays dry in sideways rain. I also can put it up alone in about five minutes. That said, I had some nights of 15+ mph wind that made me a little worried. There was also one day with 25mph wind and gusts up into the 30’s where I called it and dropped the tent and left (wind was forecasted through 2am that strong). Ideally I’d like something that fits my stupid big air mattress, 80x60x22, I can set up decently easy alone, and can hold up better in the wind. I’ve been looking at tunnel tents and also the coleman Montana tents, which have been recommended here before. I have a Big Agnes Tiger Wall for backpacking, so the only weight requirement is that I can lift it into the truck bed alone (75 pounds of less). I’d love something like a hub style tent, but I can’t imagine them being great in the wind. I have access to industry deals from Gazelle, Eureka, Oztent, Teton, Browning, Big Agnes, Mountainsmith, Kodiak, Black Diamond, Mountain Hardwear, Alps, Kelty, and Sportsmans Warehouse…. Current choices: Teton Sierra 16 Canvas Bell Tent (or 20) https://www.sportsmans.com/camping-gear-supplies/tents-shelters/tents/teton-sierra-16-5-person-canvas-tent-khaki-tan-brown/p/1530463 Browning Big Horn 5 w/ Screen Room https://www.sportsmans.com/camping-gear-supplies/tents-shelters/tents/browning-big-horn-5-person-camping-tent-with-screen-room/p/1853019 Sportsmans Warehouse 10 Person Tunnel Tent https://www.sportsmans.com/camping-gear-supplies/tents-shelters/tents/sportsmans-warehouse-10-person-tunnel-tent-green/p/1866865

I have the 10 person instant setup dark room Coleman for my family of 4. It’s not technically 2 rooms but it has a fabric divider you can use to separates one side from the other effectively making it like 2 rooms. A huge plus is it blocks out most light which should make it easier for the kid to nap. It’s also much quicker to setup than a traditional tent. It has 2 entry/exit points but I’d consider this a plus since it gives you options. I previously had a Wenzel tent which did have 2 rooms…it was an OK cheap tent but would highly recommend the Coleman over it.
