If you do get the Bus Depot version, be prepared to lay out both your old tent and the new one prior to installing it to make sure it fits.

I neglected to do that and the one I bought from the BD last year would not fit all the way around. I have gaps in the corners.�

Not sure if they'll take it back now, but I did read on the Samba that they got a bad batch of tents last year so maybe they will swap it out.

YMMV.�

Marco

Getting ready to order new canvas for the Starwagen (25 year old original

version at $249.� Can anyone tell me about their experience with the $249
version?� Especially the install.� Good fit for an experienced installer?
Or problems?� I'm on a very tight budget and looking to make the best I
can out of the money available.�
