:thinking: Well to me it looks like just another cheap trailer that someone is trying to call a teardrop. Is there even a galley in there some where? You asked for our opinion. :thumbdown:

Wish I knew how to do that....thanks Gage. :thumbsup:
Yea I had a Llttle Guy 5 wide and never used the galley and I don't like building.So I liked the price and it will be in the garage when not using it.It does have carpet floor and walls and a fiberglass skin.At 629 lbs. I can tow it with my Camry.I know it's not the quality as some of the big manufactures,but it doesn't cost as muh either.I think for what I want to use it for it will be right for us....I will give a review after I use it a few times.Thanks for an honest opinion Gage.

From their website:
Started by Stephen Shives and Father-in-Law, Robert Lane, Runaway Campers/S & S Enterprises is a DEBT-FREE, family run business, where our main focus is not products and profits; but people.

Call me cynical, but that's not a recipe for longevity. Good to strike now while the iron's hot...

I read thru their website and they are not calling this thing a teardrop just a mini camper. But it really looks scantily clad!
Looks like a HF frame and lawn chair cushions! No storage, no mention of lights, but I guess it is a camper. I wish them luck!
