I think it's 69" but I could be wrong.The new T3X is taller... I need to look at the specs again, but it looks like it’s almost as tall as the t4.

68” high, same as the old T3... the new T3X is 76”x82” instead of 76”x76” and its stored size is 2” shorter than its predecessor. Also the new tent is using the new fabric found in the redesigned T4 Plus, T8, and the T4 Overland Edition.I think it's 69" but I could be wrong.
What features are your concern and maybe I, or another member, could help? They are great tents. We own a T4 & T4+ and our camping friends have the T4+ & T3. We've used them camping on an island in heavy storms (40+mph winds with 18mph sustained for 3+ days) and had no issues. I can't speak highly enough about them. Also, worth noting, the customer service is beyond top notch.Is there a store in SoCal that has these tents for sale so I can see it in person. I really like them but they also have a lot of "features" that I am concerned about.

I guess you could say that if you liked the old t3 you will love the new t3x. Still a $40 jump in price is not good IMO. That's A 20% increase over the one I bought 7 months ago.68” high, same as the old T3... the new T3X is 76”x82” instead of 76”x76” and its stored size is 2” shorter than its predecessor.

Having owned the T3 and currently owner of the T4, my only complaints are the shape of the door is awkward and a tripping hazard, and the lack of a vestibule for foul weather. The door shape kind of goes along with the design of the tent though, so I'm not sure how that could be changed. I would really love to have a vestibule for keeping the entrance dry on rainy days without the need for a separate awning, and the T4 Plus is just way too big for my needs.Is there a store in SoCal that has these tents for sale so I can see it in person.

My concerns are from what I have seen on You Tube or read in forums, things like, The floor is removable because it easily gets holes in it, The corners where the floor attaches are not velcro'ed shut, thus snakes \ insects could get inside the tent. Attachment points on the corners where the tent stakes go easily rip off.What features are your concern and maybe I, or another member, could help? They are great tents.

I think you should watch @Michael you tube video on the Gazelle tent. He pretty much covers all of your concerns.My concerns are from what I have seen on You Tube or read in forums, things like, The floor is removable because it easily gets holes in it, The corners where the floor attaches are not velcro'ed shut, thus snakes \ insects could get inside the tent.

I have watched just about every YT video on gazzel tents, no one shows the corner of the tent where the floor attaches. I would like to see one in person.I think you should watch @Michael you tube video on the Gazelle tent. He pretty much covers all of your concerns.
My son wants to create a vlog of our travels. I still have my T4 in the box in the garage. He wants to do an unboxing of the tent so I'll have him focus on the corners. I just don't know when he'll do the video. Every weekend we've been home it's been bad weather.I have watched just about every YT video on gazzel tents, no one shows the corner of the tent where the floor attaches.

Mine is like a square bath tub. It would hold water if you filled it. It wraps up the sides of the inside tent wall about a foot and attaches with heavy Velcro at the top of the tub section. To clean out only open a small area of the velcro on only one side. I bought a ground cover for my tent because it just makes sense that any material can be punctured by sharp rocks or dried branches when you walk on it. I also have a beach blanket that covers the whole inside floor so that it is not cold to bare feet and softens the ground. I would try not to walk around inside of any tent with hard sole shoes myself. The floor material is almost twice the thickness of the tent walls. I'm happy with mine from my visual inspection but I have not used it due to medical and physical reasons occurring after I purchased the tent. Good luck !I have watched just about every YT video on gazzel tents, no one shows the corner of the tent where the floor attaches. I would like to see one in person.

I use these type of tent pegs on all my car camping tents.They are selling a footprint for the T3X as well.
Curious, what are you guys using for tent pegs with these?
The floor is removable for ease of cleaning. We find this extremely useful after beach camping. In the case you do get a hole in the floor,, as we've all experienced with a tent,, it is comforting knowing you can buy a new floor on the website and your nice tent isn't trash now. Gazelle offers multiple replacement parts for all their tents. These can be found on the webpage under each tent.My concerns are from what I have seen on You Tube or read in forums, things like, The floor is removable because it easily gets holes in it, The corners where the floor attaches are not velcro'ed shut, thus snakes \ insects could get inside the tent.

Ducking works too !I came home from work to find a Gazelle lounging on my front step! (T3X)
Pictured inside is my cot (34"x79") & table (20" sq)
The cot will not fit into the corner of the tent, so it is approximately 12" in from the corners. I'm 6'-2" & I can stand if I bend my knees a bit.
