Thank you very much for your help and thoughts. While a lot of the tents mentioned are no doubt great, I'm really trying to stay at $100 or less. I know that I won't get the best of the best that's out there at that price, but I'm okay with that.

I'm getting the feeling there isn't a definite advantage to any one tent over another, as far as the tents I listed goes. I suppose it comes down to my own personal preference then ... which is kind of what I thought before asking. I just thought maybe there was something I might be overlooking that might have been obvious to somebody more experienced.

Thanks again!

Bob
