    The full door hub looks nice.

    I have a resort hub and a pro xt resort.
    I don’t forsee the need for the full door unless it opened enough for a wheeler to pull in

    It eliminates a big trip hazard. Eskimo was the first to do this and now Otter is catching up. What would you want to pull your atv in there for?

    Warm it up if it will not start probably.

    Was just at the Otter (Rhino) Facility 30 minutes ago.
    Place is huge.

    Otter had the full door last year.

    If they were smart they would come out with a heater that is safe to use when Ice camping along with some floor stuff.

    They did? I guess I missed that.

    Yep. I was looking around for an eskimo and nobody had the 450 size hub. So ended up with the Otter.
    I’m big AND old so the full door is nice. doah

    Big buddy heater is safe.

    Keep it warm on those long cold days, nights or weekends

    Makes sense. I know my ATV is a bear to start when its cold.

    Nice to see the full door on the Resort. I asked about a resort size hub with full door at the ice show in St Paul last year. The rep working the booth said “Otter will 100% NOT have a resort size hub with full door next year due to the design issues they had with the lodge” I was willing to wait a year, but after hearing that, went and bought a Eskimo instead.

    Russian Bear Universal Tents used to have a hub where the side wall is actually a flipped up door. Easy to put the Quad or Sled inside the shelter. Then again who’s willing to pay $2k just for that feature?

    Let’s see if Otter or Eskimo will be willing to bring that feature in the future?

    If need to put atv under pop up — pop it up, pick it up, an set down over atv. Reverse processes when ATV is ready to start.

    Well I figured that was pretty common sense. But when camping all weekend and you need to make a run the last thing I want to do is unpin the shack and lift it off all my stuff then try to reset

    Code brown requires fast action.

    Have they announced a price on the Resort or Monster?
