So you're saying there's a chance!
lol.. ok.. back to our regularly scheduled thread.

Portable genny will be here tomorrow. Now I'm looking at AC options for a tent. Someone on CL is selling a tall portable one.. http://austin.craigslist.org/app/2854287329.html Figure I could set it under the rainfly with the hose poking out the back. But the damn thing is HUGE! 75 pounds, 30x18x20 or something. A quick search and it seems that all the "portable" style AC units, even the 5000 BTU ones are 70+ pounds and 25-30" tall. I need to do some size comparisons with a standard compact window unit. The upside to one of those portable ones is that I could simply set the thing inside the Big Agnes tent and run the hose out the back door. I guess I have a few months to decide yet.

I have never used one in a tent, but those "portable units" can barely keep a small travel trailer cool. You would be much better off getting a tiny window unit to set on a stand of some sort IMO.

Maybe stop and ask the range rover guys what they use for AC in their tent next time? :p

Then you were on my side of town :shifty:

Guess so, picked it up off Bandera and Grissom. Its practically new, he had it in a climate controlled storage unit. Looks like he bought it, used it once, then put it in storage and it didn't see daylight till I picked it up.

Well it looked like the one you mentioned and I looked up. Seems the 110 is the newer body style??

110 -- not bad looking

109 -- freaking cool!!

The one I saw was a dark blue or green though.

Those 109's are literally everywhere out here....I see a 109 or 110 daily.

Interesting, doesn't lifetime make gym equipment? Seems cheap enough for a tent mounted to a trailer. Around the same cost of just a RTT

No, different Lifetime. This Lifetime makes those tables and chairs you can buy at Sams. Shit is bombproof!

But for that price I have to question the tent trailers build quality
