Thinking about 2027, questions about TOTAL pricing, camping, and nearby amenities

I've just started researching Shambhala. I'm a 6-year forest-goer, been to Lost Lands, Alderwilde, Texas Eclipse, LtL.

1. TOTAL PRICING: Something I'm noticing that I'm not used to seeing is the pricing structure. Can anyone give me a budget estimate for Tuesday or Wednesday early arrival, GA camping with a car at your campsite?

2. CONVOYING GA:While I've got you here, say I have friends who I'd like to camp with in GA. At Forest for several years we've managed to get a convoy of cars in to camp together, even back-to-back so we have the whole space in between. ANYway, how feasible is that at Shambs? Still doing research, but wondering if anyone has done it there and what to expect.

3. NEARBY HOTELS/SHOPPING: If I want to stay the night in a hotel the night before arrival, or do some last minute shopping, how feasible is this nearby?

4. Is doing some of the "group" camping packages worth it? You only get one car, can someone drop their stuff off at camp and then do the free parking and shuttle back? Is this better than convoying GA?

Thanks!!
