G'day Tom,

The 240 & 300 essentially refers to 2.4m² & 3m², so which size you go with ultimately comes down to what sort of bedding you have and how you imagine your set up to grow.

I think the plus versions of the Turbo and quite underrated - they give you space at the back for sleeping, sacrificing a bit of head height for more room but with less weight and packed size.
I'd say a 240 plus would be a great option if you were happy to sleep on camp mats on the ground, would give you enough floor space inside the tent for storage and a bit of living area if the weather's poor, but you'd also have the option of extending out the awning area with walls or a screen room down the track.

Considering most double camp mats are 130cm wide, and singles are around 70cm, I don't think the 300 is necessary, especially when you're talking about car camping.

Hope that helps, and please give us a buzz on 1300 914 007 or email service@snowys.com.au if we can help with anything further.

G'day Ken,

All of these tents have lots of options for ventilation. The Safari has side and rear windows with built-in window cover gussets, so you can stay dry in wet weather where you need ventilation, they also feature ground vents which are great to help with airflow. The Turbo 240 tents have gusseted side windows, and a dual later front door, they are also the only one of these tents to feature a fly layer, which helps to reduce internal temperature and reduces condensation. The Oztent RV tents also have side and rear windows, so there is plenty of ventilation, however, they're not gusseted, so are less likely to be able to keep you dry if you're in need of airflow. Overall the Turbo Tent is probably the pick of the options for keeping cool and ventilated in a variety of conditions.

G'day Kate,

Unfortunately not, the newer three-pole awning design isn't able to be retro-fitted to an older model, and Blackwolf don't make them as a separate item.

Hi Romy, we actually wrote a bit of a guide for this. It's not an exact science as the walls of each tent have a different slope, but gives you something to go by. Check it out here - https://www.snowys.com.au/blog/can-i-fit-a-camp-stretcher-in-that-tent/.

For the Turbo 240 you'd need to reduce the available length by about 30cm for a 45cm high stretcher, so most jumbo-sized stretchers will fit whilst just touching the sides. 

If you want a bit more space and don't need a jumbo stretcher, go for something like the Oztent Goanna Stretcher (https://www.snowys.com.au/goanna-stretcher) which at 40cm height and 190cm length will give you a good buffer at each end.

G'day Alzina,

The Black Wolf Turbo 240 Tent is designed to be set up complete with flysheet and awning. It is not recommended to set up the tent sans fly as the structural stability of the tent comes from the fly and guys ropes attached to the fly. Black Wolf do a Turbo Touring Cap Fly that can be handy for quick overnight set up.

G'day Rob,

Black Wolf now seam seal most of their canvas products like the Black Wolf Turbo 240 Tent so seasoning it probably isn't necessary but it would do absolutely no harm if you chose to still season it. 

G'day Rob,

G'day Joel, 

If you want to put a Turbo 240 groundsheet, two side panels, a front wall and a screen room on a roof platform then we would recommend something like the Darche Nero Bag as it's waterproof. 

The Nero 240 bag is 145L x 26W x 26H cm, so it should fit the Turbo awning screen room (65L x 22W x 14H cm), 240 groundsheet (66L x 16W x 16H cm) plus the panels and front wall which don't take up much space. 

There's also the option of the Nero 190 bag, which is 115L x 45W x 45H cm so a little shorter but wider in circumference - either should fit everything listed, just go with what fits in with the rest of your set up.
