New TD owner in Colorado Springs

We've had several trailers through the years. We decided we wanted something smaller to pull up and down the mountain passes. But there was no way we were going back to a popup.

So ... We found a teardrop. I wanted to build one but had too many other projects going to add another. We picked up a 2007 Yoder Toter Silver Shadow.

The wiring had to be gutted. There were masses of shorted wires and the chassis was connected to 12volts. Ouch!

At least the trailer is small and the project didn't take long. All lights work now and there are fuses. Good to know it is done.

Now to figure our our own mods: side tables, water, and rain/sun shelter that will survive Colorado winds and be easy to set up. A good quest.

I'd post a picture from the app but it says that feature is disabled. Oh well - you've seen 5x10 silver shadows before. Add some nice spoke rims and that's it.

Welcome!! Just wanted to invite you to the "Last Gasp" gathering at the Eastridge Campground the last weekend of this month. This is our 8th year gathering there. There will be a potluck dinner Saturday night. Come enjoy the fun and meet more teardroppers!
