Hi all

reading posts on Oztrail tents and looking at their website. I do not see an awning that attaches to the tent like the Freedom / Southern Cross do. Can you get such an awning? I see there is a seperate fly which they make - perhaps this is what is used?

Do Oztrail tents pack flat like the others?

We currently have a Freedom Tourer but it is starting to get a bight tight for family of 5. Looking at the larger tents same style seems Oztrail is a much less expensive alternative.

Cheers

The Oztrail 9 , the square model, has a door either side and no awning but the 9 PLUS model does have a seperate awning from the door, but it is only slightly larger than the door. My only complaint with my 9 PLUS model was water leaking through the bottom of the door zip in torrential conditions. But with the awning zipped down over the door, this cannot happen, i had the awning up at the time. I paid $330 delivered from ebay. I cant find anything wrong with mine, it is well made in all areas but the floor is a fairly thick woven polypropylene and not a heavier PVC as in the Southeren Cross and Freedom. Michael
