you could get a 40 degree zenbivy quilt synthetic, although it may not keep you warm at 40 degrees.. their 25 degree down quilts are at $230 if you're willing to cough up a little extra, but they may be too warm. i started sweating in 50 degree weather.

35 degree down alps mountaineering quilt. 1.5 pounds. Maybe the best piece of equipment that company has ever made. Or a zenbivy 25 down same weight. Depends on how windy, how much other clothes a I want to wear. Get off the ground if you can with a cot- car camping. Way warmer as the ground is 10x denser than air and sucks the warmth into the ground. A cot also offers better ventilation and you will have to practice venting vs cold.  At some point it will be too cold for you in a 3 season tent and go with a warmer sleep system-   insulated mat with a good r value, wool liner, light wool gloves and balaclava, 0 bag, new tent. Hot water bottle wrapped in your thickest sock stuffed in your bag! Like the folks say here- new dry clothes on a dry body in a dry tent. I've slept in cold on purpose and some really horrible mistakes have been made. 41 is entering the cold zone.

If you’re claustrophobic, a quilt is definitely the move. I switched to a Zenbivy bed and it changed everything, it feels more like a real bed, and my dog loves curling up on the corner of it.

I would go with a quilt, they are great for moving around. Zenbivy is most peoples favorite, I really enjoy my Big Agnes.

Zenbivy makes nice options for a couples mat and sleeping bag. I haven’t tried the couple one but I love my hiking quilt and sheet that I have from them. Their system stays clipped in so that when you turn over your quilt stays put and does not get draughts. Best sleep I’ve had when hiking
