David:

You may want to look at the schedule for your part of the country and try to make a stop at a gathering and see these things first hand. Both gatherings I've been to, people stopped in, even if just for the day to get the tours.

It's hard to imagine, without seeing with your own eyes.

What part of the country are you in? That way the local teardrop owners can REALLY torment you. Drive by your house, talk you into going to local gatherings. That sort of thing. You'll love it. :thumbsup:

David !!!! Good news !!! There are some from this forum camping at Natural Falls, OK near Siloam Springs ( north of Ft Smith, AR) at the end of April ! I won't be there, but pretty sure at least one true teardrop and some TT's will be there. They will certainly be welcome to you coming by or camping there to see them.

You'll love this group ... the South Central and/or the KAMO folks ...

Welcome!

Some things are way over my head !! ...but it keeps me looking UP!
