Tiny Toy Hauler in Texas

Postby DWBROWN78 » Thu Mar 19, 2015 11:04 pm

So I finally dove right in. Been dreaming for quite a while on making a teardrop, however I wanted to be able to take the kids with me. And the other thing I wanted was to have the trailer pull double duty. I love my motorcycle and the main purpose that I purchased the trailer was to haul it around. So I been thinking for about a year on how to make a tiny trailer and still be able to haul the motorcycle when it’s me and my girlfriend going to motorcycle rallies. So to be able to do both duties this is the idea I came up with. (oh course not to scale or my actual bike lol)

Tiny Toy Hauler in Texas

Postby oklahomajewel » Sun Mar 22, 2015 7:14 am

Hey. Where are you in Texas? I/we had teardrop for several years but now finishing up our Toy Box. To carry motorcycle & camp. Loving it so far. We have a Murphy style bed so after pulling out bike just pull down bed. It's nice to have a fullsize mattress! We still opted for an outside galley door. We'll have a vintage m'cycle theme inside and two high cubbies for helmets and our jackets will hang against wall below that.

I'm around the Killeen/Ft Hood area.

I was able to get more done over the weekend, I'll post more pics later.
Biggest thing holding me back is waiting on the windows, "backorder" is killing me..... :cry:

Ok, so I've learned that there's a build journal location that I should have been posting the build. So all new stuff will be going over there. Thanks
