Just received a Go Westy,  3 window canvas tent today. I picked this up from
a guy who blew an engine and got a new van and scrapped the old. I think it
was basically used for 2 months. Have to say that I'm rather disappointed
with the sewing quality. It's functional, I'm just surprised that the
seamstresses can't sew straight lines or know how to properly hem. There are
frayed edges in a number of places. They will be hidden, but what happen to
taking pride in a quality product? Made in china? India perhaps? Really poor
quality IMO for something that sells for $450 new with shipping. I'm
thinking I will either go to my original plan of building my own or purchase
one of the German ones from Bus Depot. If anyone is in the market for a
2-month-old, 3 window tent--give me a shout off list. Submit your best
offer. This is the type that uses screws--see link below.

Here's the link from Go Westy:

This one is natural, or tan in color.
