as I ponder what oh what will I build I look around at what others have built and realize I will design my own.

My directions are photo's number 12 and 13 and 24 but more rounded at the front. dig the showers 51

I was mostly inspired by

Those are all grate. That is what is nice about tear drop designs, they are all grate, some just fit others better, I like the wholl rock hopping thing but wouldnt use it enough so I dont minde a 13 inch high teardrop. How high do you plan to make it?

In answer you to your question of how tall

Now higher then my Toyoto Pick up 1990 Dxcab

the length could change if I were to do a pull out. Dreamen a little to much there.

I finally got my printer working so I printed out a the above (post #1 of this subject) and some more. to start some sort of story board of where I want to be.

The Tvan though odd offer the rearend tent I am wishing for.
http://www.tracktrailer.com/images/Picture086.jpg

shows the floor off the ground so even in rain or snow I will not get wet feet while in the tent part.

There is a lot of extra weight to this unit the floor could be pulled out from under the unit so extra hinges and springs would not be needed.

in the gallery is the Tvan sport offering a light plexy unit for the roof.
