I bought a new 8 by 10 tent the other day. When I got home, I dumped it out of the box. It slid out of its bag, pitched itself and unzipped it's own door. The fun part was watching it pound those little metal stakes into the ground.

But seriously, folks, I didn't know they had self-pitching tents. Compared to the one's we used when I was a kid, these new one's practically pitch themselves. I bought a new one about three years ago and I can put it up by myself in about three minutes without sweating. We still have our old pop-up camper. It beats heck out of sleeping on the ground.
