    Ive got a barely used Etowah Outfitters 12x10 with a brand new Granite Gear #4 stuff sack for sale for $50 shipped. Its not sil, its DWR ripstop. It will keep you dry. It kept my son and I dry during an all night thunderstorm, the only time its been used.

    I have an Etowah 10 X 12 Sil-Nylon tarp and love it!

    As a side note, Paul (the owner) is involved in Scouting and gives Scouts a nice discount off the MSRP of his gear. You can use the "Contact Us" link on the web site to communicate with him.

    Big
    Cheap
    Light

    Pick any two...

    If you want big and cheap it ain't gonna be light
    If you want big and light it ain't gonna be cheap
    If you want cheap and light it ain't gonna be big

    I know you didn't specifically say "light", but the Guide Gear tarp is $30; big, cheap and heavy!

    Sounds like they're popular even if they are heavy!

    Guide Gear 9X9 weighs 24 oz. Not sure if they are available either!

    Weight isn't an issue I don't see my friend doing much more than one nighters out of a motorized vehicle.

    Check out Sclittlefield on here at BWD and his Winter Dream. They are also on sale right now. Otherwise, if price (not weight is the only variable, go with the Guide Gear tarp.
