My username is derived from my TV. (2001 Dodge Ram Quad Cab - ORANGE!) One of my employees dubbed it thus and the name stuck.
I'm new to the Teardrop world, but not camping or building. Restored a 1964 Airstream Overlander (26') a few years ago. We used that for a few years, then sold it last year. Mama wanted a new boat, and truth be told she's not that into camping. There are three trips we do make each year that she really enjoys, but she would probably be fine if that was it. The kids and I however really enjoy it. We'll probably throw the dirt bikes in the back of the truck, load up and go quite a bit this summer - unless we're out on the lake.
After we sold the Airstream I started looking for a solution that would allow camping, and taking the boat or bikes. Started looking for an Avion truck camper, but determined they are wayyy to heavy for my truck. (Not built light like Airstreams). Then I found teardrops and this website. I knew I could build one and the journey began...
P.S. with all the engineers on board here I'm surprised nobody has caught the reference in my build title.
