All the tents give you plenty of options.

First, this is an incredible build. Like the idea of splitting the tent. Gives you options depending on the location. Very cool. And something I wouldn't have thought of. Thanks. And have fun!

Is that a 1990 GMC Vandura? You should paint it up like the A-Team’s van

so trip is made now small report

family trip 2+2 people
total duration was 11 days and 10 nights
total distance exactly 4400 km = 2734 mi
from that distance 4150 km = 2578 mi with teradrop
From Estonia through Latvia Lithuania Poland to Slovakkia (no Czech republic in that time)
total fuel 540L = 142 gal.
longest daily mileage 822km = 511mi
shortest daily mileage 103 km = 64 mi

losses: a cheap camping chair, one screw, one headlight bulb, and one cranky mudguard which was easily corrected

sightseeings: many medieval castles and fortresses, churches, caves, mountains and much more

Absolutely stunning teardrop in design and build! I love the tents - you gave me a few ideas for my build, I thank you!

That was some trip! Glad you enjoyed it!
