Help.... Gary??

You are always the man in the know on this website...

I bought the 2007 Hartford XL last year and love it 98%.....

The first question is does the new side canopy for 2008 fit my model.

Second question... the new pole system for the bedroom pods to give them standing room... can they be bought and used with the 2007 model...

Third question... can we yet get a door for the front of the hartford canopy.. the canopy is great but a door would make it fantastic..

Look forward to replies from anyone with the answers..

Happy Camping

Hi Traciem, Im sure Gary will be along shortly but a lorry has taken out the telephone lines at melbourn where he is based a couple of weeks ago so he has been without internet or telephone. Im sure he will answer your query when he can

The Hartford didnt have a side canopy, it has a porch. The 2008 is a gothic style with the poles going up to a point at the front so it looks a completely different shape therefore I assume it doesnt fit.
As for the sleeping pods there will be no way of attaching the extra poles to the material or the existing poles.
The new Hartford is now only a single skin so if you are getting a new one you might be better looking at the Georgias.

Hi Traciem.

Sorry for the delay, we have had big problems re our phone lines for thast 10 days.

Well Cliff & Pat have got it right. Re a front door for the canopy, on the 2008 model this shouldnt be such a problem as you might see from the photo the 2008 has a larger std front porch.

 

Regards

Gary Cross
