This is a very well built trailer with doors that close as good and tight as an automobile door. I have camped with Randy (bodyman) a number times and always commented on the quality of his craftsmanship. This one is a steal at the price. :thumbsup:

Thanks Everyone
It means a lot to me.
This teardrop has served me well. I only hope someone will enjoy it as much as I have. :D


Don't worry Betsey I won't be without a teardrop.

Wow Randy !

What a great deal for a great trailer. I have seen this trailer in person and it is very nicely built. The price is what it costs to build a trailer. Are you building for free now Randy?
Someone should grab this quick.............If this was spring or on Ebay, it would be twice the price.

This weather isn't good for selling campers. I wish you luck on selling yours, too.

Of course, Betsey. You are more then welcome.
A little cold now to really think about it. We will talk later. Don't have to worry about reservations. :)

Should be plenty of room. And private, too. Ask Tina about skinny dipping. :lol:

Wow lookin' at all that green in the pictures sure makes me want to get the ol' woody out and camp. May will be here before ya know it. This cold and snow can't last forever.

Anyone who needs a good teardrop won't go wrong with Randy's, it is well built for many years of campin' by an old school body and fender man who knows how to do it right.
