Hi George.

As my in my picture, I have a Impi. Great set up. Open it up and straight into bed. 63 kilos, Aero dynamic, easy one man set-up. Easy to remove with to people but mine stays where it is. Steve.

We have the Hannibal Tourer with the full annex. Its suprisingly warmer than expected. We go into the Vic high areas a lot. Heading northwards soon though. Not too keen on camping in the snow. The old bones - you know!

We remove it when not in use. Back up under the verandah and hang it under there with two bits of wood and four short lengths of chain. I can do it on my own.

No complaints and seems a better foul weather option than others in our group have. They a bit light for rain, wind and the cold.

But expensive.

Another vote for the hannibal tourer, my wife and I have been using one for over three years now in all weathers (read savere storm, heat, cold, rain) and it's never missed a beat, the last trip was 10,000Km through NT in Jan/Feb this year. And yes it was hot and we spent 3 days tackling the QLD floods to get out there, we were very glad of being on the roof I can tell you!

The tent is as good now as the day we bought it, it's used regularly and never comes off the top of the Patrol, just give it a clean out when we get back and wax the seams occasionally. We looked at the others at the time we bought and none of them came close in the material and construction department, we have a look each year but in my opinion there's still nothing that I would trust like the Hannibal when were on an extended trip and it's our only shelters. The other thing I would say is that after sales is awesome, Peter is a great guy to deal with, we started with the smaller model than the one we have now and had no problem upgrading and have had loads of advice and tips along the way.

Hope that helps!
