Good for you Will. Why would you be 'dis-membered'? This forum is Teardrops and Tiny Travel Trailers (T&TTT). Here's what I camp in now. ;)

Lots of folks outgrow their teardrops. Others keep their teardrops for certain types of camping, and get a standie for other types of camping.

I don't dis-member anyone for having a standie! I prefer to see smaller standies though...

This is kinda out of the realm for this forum!!! :lol:

Will, I don't know what this means but I got this picture in an email today. It could be fate. Here is what your new trailer could look like with a custom paint job.

Good score Will! I'm hoping to find one of those myself, or may break down and buy a new one soon.

Thanks for all the support, friends! Was fearful we would have to slink away under the cover of darkness :lol:
Thinking this will probably be as large as we go. :thinking: Tried twice to buy a 19' but it just wouldn't come together.
Just couldn't live the Long, Long Trailer lifestyle. Probably not the tiger-stripes/leopard spots either :lol:

Looks like it is in good shape. That is one of the nice things about the fiberglass rvs. They don't rot out.

I think you will have many many years of enjoyment with your new to you trailer. Have lots of fun! 8)

Very cool! :thumbsup:

Are you bringing it to Walk the Winds this year?

Liz and I have said that when we feel like we're too old to crawl in and out of Bubbles, a Scamp/Burro/Casita is probably what we'd move up to.

I dunno. I was once lectured that a teardrop could only be 4x8 to be authentic...

Mine isn't a teardrop by any measure, but they tolerate me...

I think it will be OK....

PS (That's a nice looking camper).
