    Default OzTent RV5 FOR SALE!!!

    Ok, maybe I'm crazy, but I'm selling my almost brand new OzTent. I bought it in January, and I love it...but it's not quite big enough for camping with 3 gi-normous labs.
    It has the footprint and the rainfly. The tent cloth was slightly damaged shortly after it arrived. I did a stupid, stupid, stupid thing... I put it on top of my truck to take it from my shed to the garage, but I didn't tie it down, and as I ever so carefully made the turn into the driveway it fell off. So, a few small holes were made in the fabric, mainly the carrying bag. No damage was done to any of the hard components of the tent. I immediately patched the holes and it has been tested in the rain.
    I'm located in Little Rock, AR. This thing is huge, so I'm not going to ship it. I payed $1200 for it 5 months ago. It has been used on one camping trip. I'll take $1000 OBO for it if someone wants to pick it up in LR. I'll also be traveling out to the NE US in July, so I could possibly arrange for a delivery if anyone out that way wants a bargain on a great tent.

    OK... I got a Kelty Parthenon, and I'm very pleased with the size, the weight, the quality, and the ease of setup/take-down. So, the RV5 is definitely for sale. This is a great tent, but it just won't work with my herd of labs.

    I really wish I could see the 5 before committing. We're a family of 4 now (plus 100lbs worth of two dogs) and would like to sleep on cots. I'm just not sure how 4 cots would fit in the tent. Thoughts? I've only been inside of the RV2 (XJ's above).

    You can fit 4 cots in an RV5; add the side and front panels and you can have more than enough room for the dogs, plus it's fully screened for ventilation as a shaded room for napping children.

    I really like my RV2 with the panels - it's served me well in fare and foul weather.
