Be ready for waking up with a cold face in the middle of the night and other's in the camper/tent that HATE getting out of bed because unless you have A TON OF BATTERY POWER, heat is a luxury. Been there, done that.
Of course you can always buy a ton of propane and use a portable propane heater and crank up the heat.... But then you have an open flame all night going......nice for safety.
It only took a few Oregon rainy nights, or other campers noise that carried THROUGH the tent walls-hearing EVERYTHING, and,.... trying to find a dry place to dry out the tent walls before storage, and the real kicker-----not able to use in bear areas......and don't forget extreme lack of storage.
Oh man, do yourself a favor, save up more money and get a hard-side.
