It would be very useful though if one wanted to off oneself with carbon monoxide.

Yeah, I can see it now. "Honey, I'm just going to run the car for a while and warm up the tent."

I did go to REI and get a tent called the Base Camp 6, brought it home and put it up, and realized that the one in the bag was actually a Hobitat or something. I had to take it back down and go all the way back downtown and return it.

Then I went to Sportsmans Warehouse (similar to but smaller than Cabelas) and purchased a Kelty tent.

Here's the pic:
These things are a pain to put up! Especially for one person with two little kids trying to get in it the whole time
It's way bigger than I expected. And the material seems so thin! I'm used to Army canvas that weighs a couple hundred pounds. Guess I better get with the time, eh?
