It looks like you've thought about everything, with gas, water, even a shower! Now that you've camped with it, what is your favorite thing about it, or what features you would recommend to someone else building an off-road trailer? (I love the solar-powered electrical system, by the way.)

Cheers,
Lauren


Favorite thing using it instead of building..

Recommend ..Think light..

Cheers

Small update . As with most Tear Drop projects they just seem to grow. After being out and using this more changes always seem to come up.
My big one this year is I have an Easy Up 10 x10 shelter that is not so easy up when alone. After browsing the web I came across a winged awning I liked called a mantra. Gives you a rectangular room at door entrance and covers completely around to far rear corner. Of course the dimension's don't quite work with my setup so I started to build my own from scratch.

Here"s some shots of progress so far almost ready to mount to Tear.

Anyone that's build their own awning have any helpful info it would be great.

How have you used the inside of the lower hatch doors? They are an odd shape, but it's space that can be used for something.

I designed it that way with a purpose the lower left door holds my sink and the lower right door holds my stove.
