It is with mixed emotions that I say this: The Road Foamie is For Sale!

This is a BIG, strong homebuilt "teardrop" trailer that is light in weight due to it's composite foam construction walls and roof. The overall length is 14', the cabin itself is 11-6" and it is 7' feet wide. I've not weighed it yet since it's an hour one way to the closest truck scale but will upon request from a serious buyer. I can dolly it around by myself when it's on level ground. Here's the build thread; viewtopic.php?t=45698

This teardrop was lovingly hand built starting in July of 2011 and has been well cared for since it’s completion in October of 2012. Compared to other teardrops this one is “roomy”. We have been up and down the west coast during the last three summers and falls and have faced every kind of weather. We’ve been in the hot sun, rainy downpours, snow and fog. The Road Foamie has handled all the miles and all the changes in weather without any issues. The Road Foamie comfortably accommodates myself, my wife and our two dogs. We’re looking at changes in our RV lifestyle. We’re going to start taking longer distance trips and longer duration trips than would be doable in a teardrop especially since we like “dry” camping. Delivery may be available depending on sales price, your location and yours and my schedule. If you’re interested or if you have any questions, please feel free to call Mel at 775.771.7647. The Road Foamie is currently being stored in the Lake Tahoe, NV area. Asking $6000.00 MAKE ME AN OFFER!!!

Here are a couple of pics of the exterior, I'll add interior photos in the next day or to




The two bubbles just above the blue "skirt" have since been fixed. Just a bit of epoxy injected under the fiberglass skin took care of that.

Worth every penny and then some. There is no way anyone could build a replica of this camper without putting at least that much (and more) into materials alone, let alone the labor and commitment made in build time.

If I knew what I know now, after several years under construction with my own build, I would have jumped on this.

Good luck, Mel.

Thanks, KC I appreciate the kind words.

If anyone else reading this needs inspiration for their build, I recommend looking at KC's build thread. His work is awe inspiring, he is a true craftsman.
