What is the funniest thing someone thought your teardrop was

Postby marshall0000 » Sun May 05, 2013 1:45 am

First post here! I went to try to register my new build the other day and while I was waiting for the inspection a lady asked me: What is that? A hard shelled sleeping bag? I almost fell over laughing.

Someone asked me if it was a dog carrier. I don't even own a dog.

Les like you someone asked if ours was a dog carrier but was surprised how much room there was in the wee beastie when we let them look inside.

Marshall I like the hard shelled sleeping bag.
Plan to use that one.

Make that 3 for the pet carrier. I was shocked that someone actually thought it was a trailer for a dog. I don't see it as being THAT small.

We've heard the "dog trailer" remark more than once too. The funny thing is that when people stop by with their dogs, the dogs seem quite interested and want to look in and even get in.

I can remember back in the late 50s-60's my parents say people carried their dogs in them. So it has been around for a long time. My dad when he can't find the correct word for it calls it my "little house". He is 88 now.

Several people asked if my Lazy Bones was a BBQ.
