It takes me 5 minutes to set up my $100 popup tent which seems to be made of more sturdy material.

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I do a lot of 4 season camping, and invested in a nice canvas tent. It was expensive for a tent, but still like 1/8 the price of this thing. Plus, my wife and I can get it up in 10 minutes and it's survived for years in 60 mph winds, days of straight rain, snow, and 100° heat without a problem and it's got 8' of headroom. What a fucking scam this is. Perfect for the Tesla crowd.
I kinda want to get into winter camping but the winters are pretty deathly up here
I finally got a new 2 person tent though and did some fall camping last year and it was so comfortable and easy to set up, I'm never going back to the old shitty tent (even tho its way bigger)
It's definitely a special challenge and you need the right gear, but wow can it be rewarding. Waking up in the middle of the night and going out of the tent to see a full blizzard was one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had. The absolute silence was incredible.
Yeah, nothing like sitting around a campfire with your girl as snow falls around you and you drink a few beers before keeping each other warm for the night. Snow camping is beautiful.
Look into hot tents (tents made to be used with a woodstove)
Canvas wall tents really are crazy how comfortable and easy they are. (Except moving them, those sumbitches are heavy)
Winter camping is amazing. Obviously you need to know what you're doing and to be prepared but some of my fondest moments of camping were during the winter.
