guys,

My wife and I have decided to quit borrowing other people's tents and get a good one for ourselves.

I've looked around and it basically boils down to nylon or canvas. We've got a huge outdoor industry here so getting stuff is no problemo.

I would like to hear opinions on the two materials though. The canvas tents (in the military style) are obviously heavier and more durable, but quite a bit pricier. The nylon stuff is lighter, not as waterproof, and probably won't last as long. We're not planning on hiking with it, just using it at campsites.

Anybody here have an opinion on which route to go? I'm inclined towards the canvas myself, as I believe in getting the best possible, but I'd like to hear some opinions from people who have experience with it.

Thanks!
