    Thanks to all that have PM'd me with offers thus far. There have been a couple of REALLY good offers that unfortunately are a little out of my price range at the moment. After much research I have refined my needs and feel I should update this post so I dont waste anyones time.....

    I am mostly a car camper at the moment and dont do any long-haul hiking so I dont believe I would really benefit from spending the extra cash for a SilNylon tarp. The slightly heavier/less expensive poly tarps are probably a better fit for me at this time. So, Im looking for :

    Something with an 11 or 12' ridgeline

    Would prefer it to be cat cut to some degree.

    I think I would like something rectangular that I could set up in such a way as to be able to "close the doors" on the ends if need be.

    Im thinking something like the Chinook brand 12x9.6 tarp would be great.... I may even just buy one straight out unless someone has a better deal.

    Thanks again to all that have made offers thus far. Thank you all for your patience while I figured out what I need

    You should probably just buy one online. The cost of shipping brings up the cost and I would be surprised if someone offered you a better deal than the online price.

    I use "old blue especially" on car camping trips. The blue cargo tarp from Walmart is 12x 10 and costs around $10. If sparks hit it I go pay $10 and get "new blue". It isn't fancy or light weight, but it is very rugged, and keeps you dry.

    Good point. . Im thinking ~$50. I may just go ahead and grab the Chinook 12x9.6. or something similar. Its inexpensive and seems to meet me needs.

    You know.... Youre probably dead on with that. For the price and features I want Im probably not going to find anything better than the chinook. Lets close this thread. Im getting a chinook. Thanks everyone for helping me make up my mind.
