I just bought a Turbo Tent "Turbo Lite 3" tent and spent 3 nights at 3 different locations on Moab's White Rim last week.
The "tent" is super easy to setup. Four stakes, pop the center and the "tent" is done.
Unfortunately the "fly" isn't quite so straight-forward. The directions that came with the tent don't match the fly that came with the tent. It has an enclosed vestibule, but is smaller than the "deluxe fly" shown in the directions that came with the tent.
The steps for installing the fly seem to be:
1) Throw the fly over the tent
2) Attached the velcro straps on the inside of the fly to the tent's poles (2 per corner I believe, for a total of 8)
3) Clip the fly into the straps at the bottom of each of the 4 corners of the tent
4) Install the vestibule poles (more on this later)
5) Velcro the fly to the vestibule poles (3 velcro straps per side I believe)
6) Stake out the fly (2 on vestibule, 4 on tent)
7) Stake out the little loops at the bottom of the fly (I think?)
So the question I have are on #4 and #7:
re: #4 - Where are the feet of the vestibule poles supposed to go exactly? Do they really just sit on the ground at an angle? It "feels" like they should somehow attach to the base of the tent at or near the front stake points.
re: #7 - Am I really supposed to stake these black loops at the bottom of the fly? The stakes that come with the tent don't seem to be a good match with these loops. The combination of the loops and the stakes seem to only allow you to stake the fly straight down (on the sides and back of the tent at least, the vestibule black loops seem to work ok). It "feels" like I'm doing something wrong here... almost like the ropes for staking out the fly are supposed to go through these loops and pull the fly away from the tent (something I did not try).
Other than my confusion over the fly, this is a great car-camping tent. The additional vertical and horizontal space makes things much more comfortable than my 2-person crawl-in / crawl-out backpacking tent. And despite its much larger size, setting it up is far quicker (without the fly) and at least as quick (with the fly) as my backpacking tent (it would be quicker if I was confident in the right way to setup the fly). The vestibule is also a very nice feature, especially in threatening weather.
