Mary,
Of course, you can make your teardrop any width you like, and maybe you and your hubby can easily sleep in a double bed (4' wide teardrop), but just wait until you are on a camping trip and it is raining all day. Sure, you can get under your tarp or auxilary tent, but if you want to get into the teardrop, a 4' wide tear would be pretty confining, I'd think. Personally, I'm going for the 5' wide for that very reason. I've been stuck in too many backpacking tents in the rain and it's no fun at all after a little while.

The tension between what is good enough and what is beyond that creates the space for character to become our work.
