Hello,
I'm researching my next trailer to pull with my lifted Jeep Wrangler to do mild trails/fire roads (overlanding) and also be able to set up in camp, campgrounds, or the parking lots of off-road parks.
My requirements are air conditioning, heat, and a queen sized bed. Solar and a 12 volt system would be nice. External propane tank and jerry can holders would be nice as well.
I'm really leaning towards a very basic trailer like the Runaway Venturist https://www.runawaycampers.com/the-venturist
But then I see these awesome tear drops with the outdoor kitchens like Bean and Colorado teardrop. However I'm thinking I'd rather have my food and beverages with me in the Jeep. I already have an ARB fridge in the Jeep and it's not hard to set up a table for the stove. However, I've never used an outdoor kitchen and it does look pretty awesome.
Any thoughts on either from those who've done it before? If the answer is "teardrop kitchen is so worth it", maybe I can still keep the fridge in the Jeep and park nearby to make cooking easier?
It's quite a jump from a $12k runaway camper to a $30k bean...
