Default Oshkosh camping list? (Planning for next year)

Does your tent fit under the wing, especially a Cardinal which sits
lower to the ground? I long ago got a tent with stand up head room.


Our new tent is just a small 3 person dome tent so it fits easily
under the Cardinal wings as you can see in my Oshkosh pictures

Our old tent long ago also had standup head room. It was a heavy
duty tent with aluminum poles which had lasted many years but it took
some time to fit all the pole sections together and set up the tent.
The newer dome-type tent with fiberglass poles are much lighter and
easier to setup. The lower profile is also less susceptible to being
blown over by strong winds. We don't really miss the head room that
much.
