Need advice for my next tent.

I have owned a Roadrunner 33 tent for 5 years and I have been very satisfied
with it. I am now planning the purchase of my next tent since my roadrunner
33 is wearing out and I need your advice.

I leave in eastern Canada and I use my tent 30 to 40 days per year, mostly
during the months of August and September. It often rains and the climate is
very humid and windy. The temperature can reach 80 during the day and 40
during the night. My future tent then needs to be waterproof and very
robust. Comfortable space for 2 people and ventilation are two factors I
also consider important.

Last summer I've bought a MSR MUTHA HUBBA and I have to returned it because after two days of rain and wind the tent did not resist. Considering the temperature here I also think that superlight model with a lot of mesh are to cold for my needs.

Would the MSR SUPER FUSION 3 or the Mountain Hardwear Hammerhead 3 meet my requirements? Are there other models that would best suit my needs?

Thnaks !

Mario

Re: Need advice for my next tent.

well just remember that if your tent is beyond repair from north face they will give you a discount off a north face tent if you trade your old one in... call them up and see what they'll do for ya...
