    WTB/WTT: Your 6 or 8 person car camping tent; Big Agnes Lynx Pass 4 for trade

    I am too prolific so we no longer fit comfortably in Lynx Pass 4, and who am I kidding - I'm not going backpacking any time soon with all these kiddos...

    So I'm looking to buy or work out a trade for a big old car camping type tent. - maybe you don't need something so big anymore or want a large but back-packable tent to trade for instead?

    I want same quality-ish as my BA tent, so fiberglass poles, leaky tents, "water resistant", etc need not apply...

    This will be used for car camping so weight is no issue, but holding up to a bunch of kids poking at it, sustained winds when beach camping in AK, freezing nights, some rain, etc is important.

    Lemme know, figure its worth a shot.

    Not quite a car camping tent as I can't stand up in it but I have a 6 person Coleman we used for a few years, but haven't used it in probably 3 as we're on the other end of the scale as the kids move out.

    It looks similar to this:

    Fairly light, as I recall it was between 8 and 9 pounds. Holds up well in the wind but as stated it's a lower profile tent unlike many 'car camping tents'.
