Thanks for the replies, everyone. Still on the fence about a hybrid. Mainly, because we have 4 dogs. We're concerned about them barking at every passer by or noise they hear through the tent material. I don't think they would rip the tent if we were gone, but that's always a possibility too. I do like the concept though!
You also have to consider keeping the trailer cool and hybrid will be more difficult, if you need a/c.
Barking dogs in a campground aren't appreciated and may draw complaints to the ranger.
If they're barkers, I don't suggest a hybrid.
I would be concerned about the dogs, but I would not worry about heating or cooling. We have had ours in 100 degree with 100% humidity and also at freezing temps. The Air could keep up just fine even with the sun hitting one of the tent ends, and we could heat the whole thing with one of the little square ceramic heaters.
i meant that a regular TT would be easier to keep cool, than a hybrid.
a hybrid needs PUGs and Reflectix to even have a chance to stay cool, in real hot weather. and it will still lose some of the cool air through the tent ends. the a/c will work a lot harder in a hybrid, than it will in a regular TT.
